About Verba MCP Server
Intertwine the open-source Verba (by Weaviate) ecosystem natively into your conversational AI IDE. Execute powerful Retrieval-Augmented Generation processes and manage your localized knowledge bases simply by chatting.
LlamaIndex agents combine Verba tool responses with indexed documents for comprehensive, grounded answers. Connect 6 tools through Vinkius and query live data alongside vector stores and SQL databases in a single turn. ideal for hybrid search, data enrichment, and analytical workflows.
What you can do
- Augmented Queries — Cast a question to your agent and have it retrieve fully synthesized answers from the Verba engine completely backed up by exact document citations.
- Knowledge Management — Insert new context text, list all ingested documents, retrieve the deeply embedded raw data of any ID, or remove dead knowledge dynamically without Web UIs.
- Health Checks — Request system configurations directly via chat to ensure your local LLM connections, embedding models, and cluster health are firing effectively.
The Verba MCP Server exposes 6 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to LlamaIndex in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

Why Use LlamaIndex with the Verba MCP Server
LlamaIndex provides unique advantages when paired with Verba through the Model Context Protocol.
Data-first architecture: LlamaIndex agents combine Verba tool responses with indexed documents for comprehensive, grounded answers
Query pipeline framework lets you chain Verba tool calls with transformations, filters, and re-rankers in a typed pipeline
Multi-source reasoning: agents can query Verba, a vector store, and a SQL database in a single turn and synthesize results
Observability integrations show exactly what Verba tools were called, what data was returned, and how it influenced the final answer
Verba + LlamaIndex Use Cases
Practical scenarios where LlamaIndex combined with the Verba MCP Server delivers measurable value.
Hybrid search: combine Verba real-time data with embedded document indexes for answers that are both current and comprehensive
Data enrichment: query Verba to augment indexed data with live information before generating user-facing responses
Knowledge base agents: build agents that maintain and update knowledge bases by periodically querying Verba for fresh data
Analytical workflows: chain Verba queries with LlamaIndex's data connectors to build multi-source analytical reports
Verba MCP Tools for LlamaIndex (6)
These 6 tools become available when you connect Verba to LlamaIndex via MCP:
add_knowledge_document
Provide the document content and optional metadata JSON. Ingests a new document into the Verba knowledge base
delete_knowledge_document
This action is irreversible. Permanently removes a document from the knowledge base
get_document_details
Retrieves the full content and metadata of a specific document
get_system_config
Retrieves the current Verba system configuration
list_knowledge_documents
Lists all documents indexed in the Verba knowledge base
perform_rag_query
Returns summarized answers with citations. Executes a RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation) query against the Verba knowledge base
Example Prompts for Verba in LlamaIndex
Ready-to-use prompts you can give your LlamaIndex agent to start working with Verba immediately.
"Check Verba's configuration to see which embedding model it is currently using."
"Perform a RAG query asking: 'What are our key deployment steps based on the infrastructure guide?'"
"List all documents and output the unique ID of the 'Employee Code of Conduct' file."
