LlamaCloud MCP Server
Connect LlamaCloud to your AI agents with the LlamaCloud MCP server.
Updated
What is LlamaCloud MCP?
The LlamaCloud MCP server is a Model Context Protocol server that connects LlamaCloud to AI agents and assistants as a set of tools. With it connected, an agent can work with LlamaCloud (document parsing, extraction and rag indexing over your knowledge base) directly — instead of you copying data in and out by hand.
It is a remote MCP server that uses no authentication, so you point your client at the server URL, authorize once, and the LlamaCloud tools become available to the model.
