Can I use Meilisearch as a CLI?

Yes. KosmoKrator exposes a Meilisearch CLI through kosmo integrations:call and the provider shortcut command. Commands can return JSON for scripts, CI, and coding agents.

Can I expose Meilisearch through MCP?

Yes. The KosmoKrator MCP gateway can expose selected Meilisearch tools to clients such as Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and other MCP-compatible tools.

Where are Meilisearch credentials stored?

Meilisearch credentials are configured in KosmoKrator's local integration settings and reused by CLI, Lua, and MCP gateway surfaces.

Can I deny write access for Meilisearch MCP tools?

Yes. Start the gateway with --write=deny for read-only clients, or use ask/allow only for trusted workspaces.

Meilisearch CLI for Coding Agents

Let coding agents discover schemas and execute integration functions through CLI commands or MCP.

Use this pattern when another coding agent needs exact commands and schema discovery. The Meilisearch CLI uses the same integration registry as the TUI, Lua runtime, and MCP gateway, but returns predictable command output for automation.

Command Shape

# Meilisearch CLI for Coding Agents
kosmokrator integrations:configure meilisearch --set api_key="$MEILISEARCH_API_KEY" --enable --read allow --write ask --json
kosmo integrations:call meilisearch.meilisearch_list_indexes '{"limit":1,"offset":1}' --json

Discovery Before Execution

Agents and scripts can inspect Meilisearch docs and schemas before choosing a function.

kosmo integrations:docs meilisearch --json
kosmo integrations:docs meilisearch.meilisearch_list_indexes --json
kosmo integrations:schema meilisearch.meilisearch_list_indexes --json
kosmo integrations:search "Meilisearch" --json
kosmo integrations:list --json

`meilisearch.meilisearch_add_documents`	Write	index_uid, documents, primary_key	Add or replace documents in a Meilisearch index. Sends an array of document objects to be indexed. Returns a task object to track progress.

`meilisearch.meilisearch_get_health`	Read	none	Check the health status of the Meilisearch instance. Returns whether the server is available and operational.

Automation Notes

Use --json for machine-readable output.
Keep credentials out of argv by using environment variables or stored KosmoKrator configuration.
Configure read/write policy before unattended runs; use --force only for trusted automation.
Use the MCP gateway instead when the agent needs dynamic tool discovery inside a conversation.
