How to Use the Gumlet MCP in LlamaIndex
Build media-aware RAG pipelines in LlamaIndex by indexing Gumlet video analytics and image source configurations.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Gumlet MCP to LlamaIndex
Create your Vinkius account to connect Gumlet 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.
Turn CDN data into searchable knowledge
The `get_video_analytics` tool retrieves live viewer engagement metrics and playback performance data directly for your index. LlamaIndex takes this raw performance data and embeds it into your vector store, turning ephemeral stats into searchable knowledge. Users query past video performance without hitting the API repeatedly. Your agent searches the indexed analytics to answer questions about which videos drive the most traffic.
Query your media library using LlamaIndex
The `list_videos` tool fetches your entire catalog of video assets to build a semantic index of your media library. This lets your RAG application locate specific video files based on metadata rather than rigid ID matching. The agent pairs this with `get_video_details` to verify processing status before suggesting an asset to a user. You get an intelligent assistant that knows exactly what media is ready to stream.
Manage optimized image sources via MCP Server tools
The `list_image_sources` tool exposes your automatic format conversion and lazy-loading setups directly to LlamaIndex. Your agent indexes these source configurations to troubleshoot loading speeds or verify CDN deployment details. When users ask about image optimization policies, the agent queries this index instead of guessing. You ground every agent response in actual, live configuration data from your organization.
