Query FedEx logistics with LlamaIndex

Turn `get_proof_of_delivery` results into searchable documents within your index. You can ask questions about past deliveries using natural language. Retrieve historical shipping data to find patterns in your logistics. LlamaIndex stores these results for instant access.

Find locations using LlamaIndex

Call `find_locations` to pull address and hour data for local drop-off points. Your agent adds this to its context for better decision-making. Filter results by service type to find the right office. The index keeps this information ready for your next query.

Validate shipments with LlamaIndex

Use `validate_address` to confirm recipient details and store the outcome. This ensures your knowledge base contains only accurate, verified addresses. Check `get_postal_code` results to ground your agent in reality. It prevents hallucinated shipping routes during your RAG process.

Convert to LlamaIndex tools
Call mcp_tool_spec.to_tool_list_async() to convert all FedEx 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 FedEx tools.",
)
response = await agent.run("List recent FedEx data")
