7. Usage Quick Start

from src.core import EcoMCPKnowledgeBase

# Initialize
kb = EcoMCPKnowledgeBase()
kb.initialize("./docs")

# Add products
kb.add_products(products)

# Search
results = kb.search("your query", top_k=5)

# Get recommendations
recs = kb.get_recommendations("laptop under $1000", limit=5)

# Save for later
kb.save("./kb_index")

8. Integration with Server

Ready to integrate with:

• MCP server handlers
• API endpoints
• Gradio UI components
• Async/await patterns
• Modal deployment
• HuggingFace Spaces

9. Requirements

Added to requirements.txt:

llama-index>=0.9.0
llama-index-embeddings-openai>=0.1.0
llama-index-vector-stores-pinecone>=0.1.0

Environment variables needed:

OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-...
PINECONE_API_KEY=...  # Optional

10. Testing

Run test suite:

pytest tests/test_llama_integration.py -v

Features tested:

• Configuration validation
• Document loading (all formats)
• Knowledge base initialization
• Search result handling
