How to Use the Keen MCP in LlamaIndex
Index live event data and query metrics directly within LlamaIndex using the Keen MCP Server.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Keen MCP to LlamaIndex
Create your Vinkius account to connect Keen 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.
Index live Keen query results into your LlamaIndex vector store
The `count_events` tool pulls raw telemetry numbers directly into your LlamaIndex documents. The framework converts these metrics into queryable nodes, ensuring your knowledge base stays updated with real-time data. Instead of parsing raw JSON, you ask questions in plain English and let the MCP server pull from cached results.
Build RAG pipelines grounded in actual Keen schemas
The `list_collections` tool provides the structural foundation for your data indexes. By mapping collection schemas, LlamaIndex understands exactly where your telemetry lives. Your agent uses `get_project_details` to verify project configurations. This grounds your generation step in actual database facts, completely eliminating hallucinated metrics.
Analyze cached datasets with LlamaIndex agents
The `list_datasets` tool exposes pre-computed event batches to your retrieval pipeline. The agent pulls these datasets directly into memory for quick analysis. It applies `average_property` and `sum_property` to calculate trends on the fly. You get a unified interface that merges static document retrieval with live numeric calculations.
