How to Use the Dify.AI SDK MCP in LlamaIndex

Q: How do I register Dify.AI SDK tools in LlamaIndex?

Install llama-index-tools-mcp and initialize the BasicMCPClient with your Vinkius server URL. Wrap it in a McpToolSpec and call totoollistasync to expose the Dify tools to your index agents.

Q: Can I use Dify.AI SDK outputs to build a LlamaIndex vector store?

Yes, you can fetch conversation logs using getconversationmessages and index them directly. This turns your active Dify chat histories into a searchable knowledge base for future RAG queries.

Q: How does LlamaIndex handle file uploads to the Dify.AI SDK?

Your index pipelines can use uploadfile to pass documents or images directly to Dify apps. The tool uploads the file via URL, making it immediately available for multimodal chat runs.

Q: Can LlamaIndex filter which Dify tools are available to the agent?

Yes, you can use the allowedtools filter when configuring your LlamaIndex agent. This lets you restrict access to sensitive operations like deleteconversation while keeping chatmessage active.

Index live Dify workflow runs and chat histories into LlamaIndex vector stores for semantic search.

Index Dify Chat History for LlamaIndex RAG

Pull raw conversational data using `get_conversations` and `get_conversation_messages` to feed your indexers. LlamaIndex turns these historical logs into searchable vector embeddings so your agent can query past user interactions. This MCP Server lets your query engine search through these embeddings to find relevant context before calling `chat_message`. Your agent avoids repeating answers and grounds its responses in actual past conversations.

Query Dify App Metadata Dynamically

Let your LlamaIndex router query `get_app_meta` and `get_workflow_info` using this MCP Server to understand the capabilities of your active Dify deployments. This metadata helps the query engine decide which specific Dify application to target for a given user prompt. If the router selects a workflow, it calls `get_workflow_parameters` to map the incoming query fields to the required schema. The engine then triggers the execution using `run_workflow` with zero manual mapping.

Synthesize Search Results into Dify Completions

Send retrieved context documents directly to Dify using the `send_completion` tool. LlamaIndex packages the raw search hits and lets the Dify completion engine format the final output. If the user wants to follow up on the generated answer, you can use `get_suggested_questions` to suggest the next logical queries. This keeps the search experience interactive and guided by the underlying Dify model logic.

Setup guide

Set up Dify.AI SDK 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 Dify.AI SDK 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 Dify.AI SDK tools.",
)
response = await agent.run("List recent Dify.AI SDK data")
