Frequently asked questions
How can Linkup help my agent provide more up-to-date answers?
Use the linkup_search tool to give your agent access to live web data. By performing semantic searches across the internet, your agent can retrieve the latest news, reports, and documentation, grounding its answers in current facts.
Can I extract clean text from a specific URL for RAG?
Yes. The linkup_fetch tool is specifically designed for content extraction. It renders the target page and returns a clean text version stripped of navigation and ads, making it ideal for feeding high-quality context to your agent.
What is the difference between standard and deep search modes?
Standard search focuses on rapid fact-finding and top results. Deep search performs a more comprehensive crawl across many more sources, which is better for complex research tasks that require diverse perspectives and detailed data.
How does LlamaIndex connect to MCP servers?
Use the MCP client adapter to create a connection. LlamaIndex discovers all tools and wraps them as query engine tools compatible with any LlamaIndex agent.
Can I combine MCP tools with vector stores?
Yes. LlamaIndex agents can query Linkup (AI Search & RAG) tools and vector store indexes in the same turn, combining real-time and embedded data for grounded responses.
Does LlamaIndex support async MCP calls?
Yes. LlamaIndex's async agent framework supports concurrent MCP tool calls for high-throughput data processing pipelines.
