How to Use the FireHydrant MCP in LlamaIndex
Index FireHydrant incident data into LlamaIndex vector stores to ground your SRE agents in real historical context.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect FireHydrant MCP to LlamaIndex
Create your Vinkius account to connect FireHydrant 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.
Build a searchable historical database with LlamaIndex
Stop letting past outages go to waste. This MCP Server lets LlamaIndex query `list_retrospectives` and `list_incidents` to pull past post-mortems and index them into a local vector store. When a new issue arises, your agent can search this knowledge base to find how similar failures were resolved. By combining live data from `get_incident` with historical vector search, your SRE agent can suggest verified remediation steps instead of guessing. Outage resolution times drop when you put past team knowledge to work.
Query your live service catalog via LlamaIndex RAG
Keep your operational documentation fresh by querying live system state with this MCP server. Your LlamaIndex agent can call `list_services` and `get_service` to build an up-to-date index of your system architecture. When developers ask which team owns a failing microservice, the agent queries the index, pulls the owner via `get_team`, and provides the exact contact info. Manual lookups in stale spreadsheets are officially dead.
Automate incident documentation and updates
Maintain accurate incident timelines without manual typing. The agent reads system logs, matches them against recent deployments via `list_change_events`, and uses `add_incident_note` to document the findings. If the situation escalates, the agent uses `update_incident` to change the status or severity based on the real-time telemetry indexed during the outage. Coordination becomes cleaner when the timeline updates itself.
