Perplexity

Vectorize Factored Quality audit reports

Convert the output of `get_audit` into searchable embeddings for your LlamaIndex knowledge base. Your agent retrieves these records based on semantic similarity rather than exact keyword matches. This allows you to ask questions about past performance across different factory sites. The system surfaces relevant audit history to inform your current quality assessment.

Ground LLM responses in live data

Use `list_bookings` to populate your index with the latest service schedule. Your agent answers queries about upcoming quality checks with data fetched in real-time. This reduces hallucinations. When you ask about a booking, the agent retrieves the actual object from the Factored Quality server before generating a response.

Filter tools for targeted data access

Restrict your agent's capability to specific tools like `get_supplier` using the allowed_tools filter. This keeps your RAG application focused on relevant supplier information. You avoid unnecessary noise by limiting the tool surface area. The agent only interacts with the Factored Quality data endpoints you explicitly include in the index.

Setup guide

Set up Factored Quality 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 Factored Quality 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 Factored Quality tools.",
)
response = await agent.run("List recent Factored Quality data")

Common questions about Factored Quality MCP in LlamaIndex

The client converts tool outputs into document objects. These are then indexed into your vector store, allowing for persistent, semantic retrieval of your supply chain data.

Yes. You combine the tool spec with your agent to enable natural language queries. The agent calls the necessary tools to gather information before answering your question.

All data fetched from the server is treated as private context. It is only indexed within your local vector store, keeping your factory audit details isolated from public models.

The client provides an async interface for all tool calls. This allows your agent to fetch multiple inspection records simultaneously without blocking the main thread.

You trigger a re-indexing process whenever you need the most recent data. The agent calls the tools again, and the new results overwrite the stale entries in your vector store.
