…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Commerce.js MCP to LlamaIndex
Create your Vinkius account to connect Commerce.js 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 live store data for grounded LlamaIndex searches
This integration pulls live storefront details from `list_products` and `list_categories` directly into your LlamaIndex vector store. Your LlamaIndex agent queries this local index to get real, grounded Commerce.js product information. When a customer asks LlamaIndex about a specific item, the agent retrieves the exact details using `get_product`. It combines this live Commerce.js API data with your indexed documents to answer questions without making up prices.
Build a queryable knowledge base of your Commerce.js orders
This MCP Server indexes the output of `list_orders` and `get_order` into your LlamaIndex pipeline to turn your sales history into a searchable database. This setup lets you query past customer interactions alongside live Commerce.js order statuses inside LlamaIndex. Your LlamaIndex agent can search through thousands of Commerce.js records to find a specific shipping bottleneck without manual filtering. It grounds every support response in actual transaction data.
Drive cart updates using LlamaIndex tool specs
This toolset lets your LlamaIndex agent execute `create_cart` and `add_to_cart` to prepare a purchase once a user finds what they want. The transition from LlamaIndex product discovery to Commerce.js checkout is immediate. Don't worry about manual state sync; it just works. You can also let the LlamaIndex agent modify quantities on the fly using `update_cart_item`. It calls the Commerce.js API based on the user's natural language feedback, ensuring the cart matches their exact intent before calling `generate_checkout_token`.
