Perplexity

Query your video library with LlamaIndex

Use `list_videos` to pull data into your knowledge base. LlamaIndex then indexes these details so you can ask natural language questions about your media library. Stop searching through dashboards. Your agent answers questions about file status or upload history by querying the local vector index.

Ground media decisions in LlamaIndex

By feeding output from `get_video` into your index, you prevent your agent from hallucinating about file properties. It relies on the actual API response for every answer. Your RAG pipeline stays updated as you add new content. The agent always has the latest view of your account storage and settings.

Automate signing keys in LlamaIndex

Generate keys with `create_signing_key` and store the metadata in your index. You can track which keys are in use without manually checking the API. It makes managing secure access tokens a background task. Your agent handles the rotation and lookup automatically.

Setup guide

Set up Cloudflare Stream MCP in LlamaIndex

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
llama-index-tools-mcp package
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install dependencies
Run pip install llama-index-tools-mcp llama-index-llms-openai. The MCP tools package provides BasicMCPClient and McpToolSpec.
2

Connect with BasicMCPClient
Point BasicMCPClient to your Vinkius endpoint URL. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com. Supports SSE and Streamable HTTP transports.
3

Convert to LlamaIndex tools
Call mcp_tool_spec.to_tool_list_async() to convert all Cloudflare Stream MCP tools into native FunctionTool objects that any LlamaIndex agent can use.
4

Run with any LLM
Create a FunctionAgent with the tools and your preferred LLM. Swap OpenAI for Anthropic, Gemini, or any LlamaIndex-supported provider.

agent.py

from llama_index.tools.mcp import BasicMCPClient, McpToolSpec
from llama_index.core.agent.workflow import FunctionAgent
from llama_index.llms.openai import OpenAI

# Connect to the MCP
mcp_client = BasicMCPClient(
    "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
)
mcp_tool_spec = McpToolSpec(client=mcp_client)

# Convert MCP tools to LlamaIndex tools
tools = await mcp_tool_spec.to_tool_list_async()

# Create and run the agent
agent = FunctionAgent(
    tools=tools,
    llm=OpenAI(model="gpt-4o"),
    system_prompt="You have access to Cloudflare Stream tools.",
)
response = await agent.run("List recent Cloudflare Stream data")
