Meilisearch is a search engine and AI retrieval platform for indexing and querying content with full-text, vector, and hybrid search. It is available as a managed cloud service and as self-hosted software.
Meilisearch exposes a REST/HTTP API with published OpenAPI specs plus a public unauthenticated `/health` endpoint; no GraphQL or MCP surface was found, and an official CLI exists on GitHub but its install/auth mechanics were not documented on meilisearch.com.
