Meilisearch MCP Server

Instructions

Implementation Reference

• src/tools/index-tools.ts:92-112 (registration)

  Primary registration of the 'create-index' tool with MCP server, including Zod input schema validation and the inline asynchronous handler function that executes the tool logic by making a POST request to the Meilisearch '/indexes' API endpoint.

  server.tool(
    'create-index',
    'Create a new Meilisearch index',
    {
      indexUid: z.string().describe('Unique identifier for the new index'),
      primaryKey: z.string().optional().describe('Primary key for the index'),
    },
    async ({ indexUid, primaryKey }: CreateIndexParams) => {
      try {
        const response = await apiClient.post('/indexes', {
          uid: indexUid,
          primaryKey,
        });
        return {
          content: [{ type: 'text', text: JSON.stringify(response.data, null, 2) }],
        };
      } catch (error) {
        return createErrorResponse(error);
      }
    }
  );

• src/tools/index-tools.ts:23-26 (schema)

  TypeScript type definition for the parameters accepted by the 'create-index' tool handler.

  interface CreateIndexParams {
    indexUid: string;
    primaryKey?: string;
  }

• src/index.ts:64-64 (registration)

  Top-level registration call that invokes the index tools module registration, thereby making the 'create-index' tool available on the MCP server.

  registerIndexTools(server);
