How to Use the Fastly MCP in LlamaIndex

Q: How do I load Fastly service configurations into LlamaIndex?

You use the llama-index-tools-mcp package to connect to your Vinkius server endpoint. The tool spec exposes tools like listservices directly to your index agents.

Q: Can LlamaIndex query historical Fastly traffic statistics?

Yes, by calling getservicestats and indexing the output. You can then write queries to find traffic spikes and correlate them with specific service versions.

Q: How does LlamaIndex prevent hallucinations when managing Fastly?

It uses live tool outputs from tools like getservice as context. The agent relies on current JSON payloads rather than its training data to make decisions.

Q: Can I purge cached content during a search query?

Yes, your agent calls purgeallcache if a query indicates that indexed content is stale. This forces an edge refresh so subsequent reads retrieve fresh data.

Q: Where does LlamaIndex store my Fastly configuration data?

Configuration data retrieved via getservice only resides in your local vector store or memory. The MCP server processes the tool calls through an ephemeral, zero-trust sandbox that never retains your configuration payloads.

Index your Fastly configurations directly into LlamaIndex to query, search, and audit your CDN setups using live edge data.

Query Fastly configurations directly within LlamaIndex

Stop guessing which service version contains specific backend origins. This MCP Server lets your LlamaIndex agent pull live configurations with `list_service_versions` and index them straight into your vector store for instant semantic search. You ask your agent which domains point to which backends. The agent runs `list_version_domains` and `list_version_backends` to build a complete, queryable map of your edge routing setup.

Analyze edge traffic trends using RAG pipelines

Combine historical documentation with real-time performance metrics. Your agent fetches current usage statistics via `get_service_stats` and ingests them into your index to compare actual traffic against your capacity plans. This setup lets you run complex queries about performance anomalies. The agent matches live stats against past incident reports stored in your vector database to find patterns.

Verify and activate service versions with grounded context

Avoid deploying broken configurations by grounding your agent's decisions in actual service state data. Before activating a version, your agent calls `get_service_version` to verify the configuration details match your deployment spec. Once verified, the agent executes the rollout using `activate_service_version` with confidence. This MCP setup keeps your deployment decisions grounded in live API data rather than outdated static files.

Setup guide

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