How to Use the Alchemy MCP in LlamaIndex
Index live blockchain data into LlamaIndex. Ground your RAG apps in real-time Ethereum network state.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Alchemy MCP to LlamaIndex
Create your Vinkius account to connect Alchemy 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.
Index wallet data with LlamaIndex
Convert `get_token_balances` output into searchable vectors. LlamaIndex takes this live API data and stores it for semantic retrieval later. This turns your agent into an expert on specific Ethereum addresses. Your RAG app queries historical balances without needing manual updates.
Query block history in LlamaIndex
Use `get_latest_block_number` to feed your knowledge base with current network status. LlamaIndex indexes these snapshots to provide context for user queries. Your system stays grounded in reality. The agent searches the index to answer questions about network activity based on the latest data.
Add transaction context to LlamaIndex
Feed `get_transaction_receipt` results into your vector store. LlamaIndex maps these receipts to help your agent explain specific contract interactions. Your knowledge base grows with every call. It provides the source of truth for your agent when it answers complex questions about transaction outcomes.
