Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Clipboard History Searcher MCP to LlamaIndex
Create your Vinkius account to connect Clipboard History Searcher 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 your Maccy and CopyQ exports
The `search_clipboard_history` tool ingests your raw clipboard dumps so LlamaIndex can embed and store them. You point your basic MCP client at the Vinkius endpoint. The framework pulls down the JSON or TXT file contents and chunks the data. Those chunks become queryable nodes in your vector store. Instead of relying on exact keyword matches, you can do semantic searches across months of copied text. Ask your RAG application about a concept, and it finds the relevant paragraph you copied from a PDF last month.
Ground answers in your MCP Server data
Executing `search_clipboard_history` feeds actual historical context into your LlamaIndex query engine. Hallucinations drop to zero when the AI answers based strictly on text you previously copied. The tool handles the parsing logic for different export formats automatically. Combine this with your existing document indices. Your FunctionAgent can cross-reference a code snippet from your clipboard history with your company's internal documentation. You get a unified response that cites both sources.
Build automated memory retrieval
Triggering `search_clipboard_history` via `McpToolSpec` allows your knowledge-augmented AI to treat your clipboard like a long-term memory bank. You just export your Ditto history periodically. The agent handles the retrieval whenever a user asks a related question. Filtering capabilities let you restrict what gets indexed. Set `include_resources=True` to pull in the raw file data, then filter out items under ten characters. Your vector database stays clean and relevant.
