Connect 99Minutos Express MCP to LlamaIndex
Create your Vinkius account to connect 99Minutos Express to LlamaIndex and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Turn Shipping Data into a Knowledge Base
Tool calls are no longer just one-and-done transactions. When your agent uses `list_orders` or checks `get_rates`, LlamaIndex can automatically index the results into a vector store of your choice. Your shipping history becomes a queryable asset. This creates a private knowledge base grounded in your actual operations. You can ask questions in plain English about past shipments, costs, and delivery times without needing to re-run API calls or dig through logs.
Query Your Logistics History
Once your data is indexed, you can ask complex questions. "What was our average shipping cost to Monterrey last quarter?" Your agent queries the indexed results from previous `get_rates` calls to find the answer. It's fast and doesn't hit the live API. This is the core of RAG. Your LlamaIndex application provides answers grounded in real, historical data from your 99Minutos account. It drastically reduces the chance of your agent making things up.
Build Smart RAG Tools with LlamaIndex
Combine real-time data with your indexed knowledge. An agent can get a live package location with `get_tracking`. Then, it can query its indexed history of all past deliveries to that same ZIP code to give a more accurate ETA. This MCP Server provides the live data source. LlamaIndex gives you the framework to merge that with historical context. You're not just getting data; you're building an understanding of your logistics patterns.
