Index support history with this MCP Server
The `get_conversation_details` tool fetches raw email and message threads to build a searchable vector index of customer interactions. Your LlamaIndex agent queries this index to find how past tickets were resolved instead of guessing. By feeding live conversation data into your vector store, you eliminate hallucinated answers. Your agent reads actual historical resolutions before drafting a response to a new ticket.
Ground support replies in real-time mailbox data
The `list_conversations` tool retrieves active support threads so your RAG pipeline always operates on current customer data. LlamaIndex combines this live context with your static documentation to generate highly accurate replies. Once the pipeline generates a grounded response, the agent uses `send_email` to reply directly to the customer. This ensures your automated emails remain accurate and backed by real conversation history.
Search and update LlamaIndex customer profiles
The `list_contacts` tool pulls your entire Helpwise contact list to build a local semantic index of customer metadata. Your LlamaIndex agent searches this index to match incoming queries with existing customer records. If a customer is missing, the agent triggers `create_contact` to update the shared database. This keeps your support directory clean and searchable via natural language queries.
