Semantic incident search

Use `list_incidents` to pull your history and index it into a vector store. You can then ask your agent about past outages, finding relevant patterns in seconds rather than digging through logs. This creates a searchable knowledge base of your uptime history. Your agent uses this context to write better, more informed updates for current incidents.

Grounding updates in live data

When you need to update a component, the agent first queries your indexed status docs. It checks how you handled similar issues before calling `update_component`. This ensures your communications stay consistent with past incidents. You aren't just pushing status changes; you're using your own historical data to inform your current response strategy.

Unified status knowledge base

Combine your current Instatus (Status Pages API) data with your technical documentation in a single RAG pipeline. The agent can cross-reference system health with your runbooks. This gives your agent the full picture. It knows the current status of your services and exactly what steps to take, all grounded in the reality of your infrastructure.

Setup guide

Set up Instatus (Status Pages API) 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 Instatus (Status Pages API) 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 Instatus (Status Pages API) tools.",
)
response = await agent.run("List recent Instatus (Status Pages API) data")
