MCP Integration
Use Valmar as an MCP server when your client already speaks MCP.
Alternative to the SDK
MCP is the zero-SDK path. If you have already followed Quickstart with the Python or TypeScript SDK, you do not also need this — the same search and gather operations are exposed both ways.
MCP is useful when an existing assistant or agent runtime already knows how to connect to MCP servers and you want Valmar as one more tool.
Add the Valmar MCP server
This is the minimum configuration shape for an MCP-capable client. Use the base URL from your customer deployment.
{
"mcpServers": {
"valmar": {
"url": "https://valmar.your-company.com/mcp",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer valmr_proj_sk_..."
}
}
}
}Use MCP when
- You already have an MCP-based assistant runtime.
- You want a fallback path without adding a language SDK first.
- Your assistant should keep control and call Valmar only when needed.
