Algolia MCP server

What the model can do

Algolia: the application's indices with record counts and sizes, an index's relevance settings, a bounded search of an index, and search analytics (top searches, searches with no results, top results, daily search volume); can save, partly update or delete records by objectID, save or delete query rules and synonyms, change relevance settings and copy an index.

Reads

• algolia_list_indicesIndices in the Algolia application: name, record count, size in bytes, last update, whether it is a replica and of what, and pending indexing tasks.
• algolia_get_settingsAn Algolia index's relevance settings: searchable attributes, facets, ranking and custom ranking, replicas, typo tolerance, distinct…
• algolia_searchSearch one Algolia index the way the customer's site does: matching records (objectID and up to 12 attributes, values truncated)…
• algolia_top_searchesThe most frequent searches on an Algolia index over a window, with how many times each ran and how many results it found; with click analytics…
• algolia_no_result_searchesSearches on an Algolia index that found nothing, most frequent first, over a window: what people looked for and the site did not have.
• algolia_top_hitsThe records an Algolia index returned most often over a window (objectIDs with counts), optionally for one search term.
• algolia_search_countHow many searches an Algolia index served over a window, in total and per day.

Acts, when you ask

These change something in Algolia. The model is told to use them only when you ask for exactly that, and each one is granted by name: per team on a shared connection, by the owner on a personal one.

• algolia_save_objectAdd a record to an Algolia index, or replace the whole record that has the same objectID (attributes not passed are lost).
• algolia_partial_update_objectChange some attributes of an Algolia record, leaving the others as they are.
• algolia_delete_objectPermanently delete one record from an Algolia index by objectID.
• algolia_delete_objectsPermanently delete up to 100 records from an Algolia index, each named by objectID (never by filter, never all).
• algolia_save_ruleCreate or replace a query rule on an Algolia index (promote or hide records, change search parameters, redirect) for the queries its conditions match.
• algolia_delete_rulePermanently delete one query rule from an Algolia index; the searches it shaped go back to plain ranking once the task completes.
• algolia_save_synonymCreate or replace one synonym on an Algolia index (replaces any synonym with the same id).
• algolia_delete_synonymPermanently delete one synonym from an Algolia index; live once the task completes.
• algolia_set_settingsChange an Algolia index's relevance settings, such as searchableAttributes, customRanking, attributesForFaceting, typoTolerance or distinct.
• algolia_copy_indexCopy an Algolia index onto another index: its records, settings, synonyms and rules, or only the scopes named (settings, synonyms, rules).

Connect it

First connect Algolia on Dashboard → Connections, then add Memtro to your client once. The Algolia tools appear alongside the tools of everything else you have connected; nothing is configured per connector.

Who may use it

The key identifies the person, and the server offers that person the tools they may use everywhere else in Memtro. A shared Algolia connection is used by the teams an administrator granted it to, tool by tool, on the Permissions page; a personal connection is used by its owner alone, and its tools that act stay off until the owner allows them. See Teams and permissions and Connectors.

Ask it like this

• › What did people search for and not find last week?
• › What were the top searches on the products index in the last 8 days?
• › Which attributes are searchable on the products index?
• › Why does the steel kettle rank above the glass one in products?
• › Add a synonym on products so hob also finds cooktop.

Questions

Is this an official Algolia MCP server?

No. It is Memtro's MCP server with Memtro's Algolia connector behind it: the connector reads Algolia through its API with the credentials you connect on Dashboard → Connections, and Algolia publishes nothing here. The same endpoint carries every other system you connect and Memtro's memory tools.

What does it cost?

Nothing on top of Memtro. One price per organisation by its number of users, from $50 a month for up to 10 users after a 7-day free trial, with every connector, the MCP server, jobs and memory included. You bring your own model keys.

Can it change anything in Algolia?

Only when you ask, and only what it has been granted: add a record to an index, or replace the record with the same objectID; change some attributes of an existing record; delete one record from an index, permanently; delete up to 100 records named by objectID, permanently; create or replace a query rule (pin, hide, boost, redirect) on an index; delete a query rule from an index, permanently; create or replace a synonym on an index; delete a synonym from an index, permanently; change an index's relevance settings (only the settings named); copy an index (or only its settings, synonyms or rules) onto another index, overwriting it. Every other tool reads, searches or lists. An administrator grants each acting tool by name per team, and a personal connection acts only after its owner allows it.

Which clients work?

Any MCP client that speaks Streamable HTTP: Claude Code, Cursor, Claude Desktop, OpenCode, Codex, Zed, Windsurf, Cline and the Anthropic and OpenAI SDKs. There is no local process to run; the server is remote and authenticated with your key.
