Connect Walmart Luminate Analytics MCP to LlamaIndex

Semantic Search of API Data via MCP Server
LlamaIndex indexes the output from tools like `luminate_channel_performance`. Instead of just seeing raw JSON, you search a knowledge base built on that data. You can ask questions about past performance constraints and get answers grounded in actual results. This means your AI client won't hallucinate; it references the indexed API data, allowing deep semantic questioning against structured metrics.
Building RAG Applications with Walmart Luminate Analytics
Want to combine documentation with live metrics? Use this MCP Server to feed `luminate_conversion_rates` results into your vector store. Your application can then answer, 'Why did SKU X perform poorly in Q3?' by combining documents and current conversion data. This is how you create a unified index that answers questions based on both qualitative context and quantitative API results.
Deep Pattern Recognition with LlamaIndex
The `luminate_market_basket` tool generates affinity metrics. By indexing these results, your RAG application can surface patterns across sessions—for example, noticing that shoppers who buy item A and B always skip C, even if the latest report suggests otherwise. LlamaIndex finds those subtle connections by searching the stored knowledge rather than just running a single API call.
