What is the Meilisearch MCP Server?

Connect your Meilisearch instance to any AI agent to automate your search engine management and data indexing workflows.

What you can do

  • Index Management — Create, list, update, and delete indexes. Perform atomic swaps between indexes for zero-downtime deployments.
  • Document Operations — Add, update, or replace documents in bulk. Retrieve specific documents by ID or list them with advanced filtering and sorting.
  • Granular Deletion — Remove documents individually, in batches, or by applying complex filter expressions to clean up your data.
  • Metadata Inspection — Fetch detailed metadata for your indexes and documents to monitor your search engine's state.

How it works

  1. Subscribe to this server
  2. Enter your Meilisearch Instance URL and API Key
  3. Start managing your search data from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client

Who is this for?

  • Developers — Index new data or debug search results directly from the code editor.
  • Data Engineers — Automate index maintenance and document synchronization tasks.
  • Content Managers — Quickly verify if specific content is correctly indexed without using a dedicated dashboard.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01

Can I delete documents based on a specific condition or category?

Yes! You can use the delete_documents_by_filter tool. Just provide the index UID and a filter expression (e.g., 'category = electronics') to remove all matching documents at once.

02

How do I perform a zero-downtime index update?

You can use the swap_indexes tool. This allows you to swap the names of two or more indexes atomically, ensuring your search remains active while you switch to a newly populated index.

03

Is it possible to retrieve only specific fields from a document?

Absolutely. When using get_document or list_documents, you can provide a comma-separated list of fields to return, reducing the payload size and focusing on the data you need.

04

How does Windsurf discover MCP tools?

Windsurf reads the mcp_config.json file on startup and connects to each configured server via Streamable HTTP. Tools are listed in the MCP panel and available to Cascade automatically.

05

Can Cascade chain multiple MCP tool calls?

Yes. Cascade is an agentic system. it can plan and execute multi-step workflows, calling several tools in sequence to accomplish complex tasks without manual prompting between steps.

06

Does Windsurf support multiple MCP servers?

Yes. Add as many servers as needed in mcp_config.json. Each server's tools appear in the MCP panel and Cascade can use tools from different servers in a single flow.

07
