Key Capabilities
LlamaIndex: Indexing Timing Parameters
Don't just run the tools, save them. When you use `query_breathing_parameters`, the output is indexed into your knowledge base. This means you can later query past sessions or configurations and get answers grounded in actual timing data. This ability turns live API calls into a searchable index for your RAG applications.
LlamaIndex: Querying Past Breathing Schedules
You can use `generate_breathing_schedule` and then store the results. Later, you query the indexed data to retrieve specific schedules that were run weeks ago. LlamaIndex combines this historical API data with your documents for unified searching. This is far better than relying on memory or simple logging.
LlamaIndex: Calculating and Storing Cycle Durations
The results from `calculate_single_cycle_duration` become valuable, searchable facts. By indexing these measured durations, you can answer questions like 'What was the typical cycle time for 4-7-8?' based on logged data. This gives your knowledge graph measurable context derived directly from the MCP.
