node examples/use-mcp-server.js
This script starts the MCP server and sends requests to it using curl commands.
Examples
Generate Code
{
"description": "Create a function that calculates the factorial of a number",
"language": "JavaScript"
}
Generate Code to File
{
"description": "Create a function that calculates the factorial of a number",
"language": "JavaScript",
"filePath": "/path/to/factorial.js",
"lineNumber": 10,
"replaceLines": 0
}
The generate_code_to_file tool supports both relative and absolute file paths. If a relative path is provided, it will be resolved relative to the current working directory of the MCP server.

{
"code": "function factorial(n) {
if (n <= 1) return 1;
return n * factorial(n - 1);
}",
"language": "JavaScript",
"format": "JSDoc"
}
Ask Question
{
"question": "What is the difference between var, let, and const in JavaScript?",
"context": "I'm a beginner learning JavaScript and confused about variable declarations."

FAQ
- What is the LlamaIndex MCP server?
- LlamaIndex is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server profile on explainx.ai. MCP lets AI hosts (e.g. Claude Desktop, Cursor) call tools and resources through a standard interface; this page summarizes categories, install hints, and community ratings.
- How do MCP servers relate to agent skills?
- Skills are reusable instruction packages (often SKILL.md); MCP servers expose live capabilities. Teams frequently combine both—skills for workflows, MCP for APIs and data. See explainx.ai/skills and explainx.ai/mcp-servers for parallel directories.
- How are reviews shown for LlamaIndex?
- This profile displays 50 aggregated ratings (sample rows for discoverability plus signed-in user reviews). Average score is about 4.7 out of 5—verify behavior in your own environment before production use.
