Connect Crafter CMS MCP to LlamaIndex
Create your Vinkius account to connect Crafter CMS 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 Crafter CMS schemas for LlamaIndex RAG
The `get_site_globals` tool retrieves the structured rules and active configurations of your Crafter CMS setup so your LlamaIndex agent can index them. By turning these rules into searchable vector embeddings, your agent understands your site's architecture before writing queries. This prevents your RAG applications from hallucinating API endpoints or field structures. Your agent queries the local vector store first to pull the correct schema before executing any live tools.
Search delivery engines using this MCP Server
The `search_crafter_delivery` tool inspects deep internal arrays within your delivery engine to pull live content directly into LlamaIndex. Your agent parses these search results and indexes them, making live production data immediately available for semantic queries. Instead of relying on static documents, your RAG pipeline uses fresh content from the delivery engine. This ensures your user-facing search answers are always grounded in real-time site data.
Safe XML tree exploration in LlamaIndex
The `get_studio_tree` tool extracts the nested XML structures and Git hierarchies of your Crafter CMS repository for indexing. LlamaIndex stores this structural data to help your agent map out content relationships across your entire workspace. When you ask your agent to modify a page, it references this indexed map to find the exact file path. This keeps your Git repository structured correctly and prevents orphaned XML files.
