Generally available since 1 October 2026, with billing from 1 November. Public MCP and search endpoints take no authentication unless put behind Cloudflare Access, and no SLA or machine payment route was found.\n\n**Milvus and Zilliz Cloud API + MCP.** Apache-2.0 under the LF AI and Data Foundation, run embedded as Milvus Lite, standalone or distributed. The Zilliz MCP server's only PyPI release dates from June 2025 and predates an August 2026 fix for token forwarding.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Cloudflare AI Search\n\n1. Use `/ai-search/namespaces/default/instances/{id}/search`. The un-namespaced and `/autorag/rags/` paths are deprecated\n2. Set `ai_search_options.retrieval.max_num_results` (1 to 50, default 10) and `match_threshold` (default 0.4) to bound the context you read\n3. On 429 code 7069 the monthly query quota is spent. Wait or upgrade rather than retry\n4. Expect up to six hours before website or R2 changes are searchable. Trigger a sync job, at most once every 30 seconds, after you write\n5. Filters match only the first 64 bytes of a string. Use a `$gte`/`$lt` range on `folder` to match a folder and its subfolders\n\n### Milvus and Zilliz Cloud API + MCP\n\n1. Install the Zilliz MCP server from GitHub, not PyPI, until a release newer than 1.0.0 ships\n2. Use the cluster endpoint for data (`/v2/vectordb/entities/search`) and api.cloud.zilliz.com only for cluster management\n3. Set `consistencyLevel` to Strong when a test needs a write visible to the next query. The default is Bounded\n4. Expect at most 1,024 results and 10 query vectors per search on Free and Serverless\n5. Return only the fields you need. Returning the vector field multiplies read cost\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Cloudflare AI Search or Milvus and Zilliz Cloud API + MCP?\n\nCloudflare AI Search scores 73.5 (BB) on agent readiness against Milvus and Zilliz Cloud API + MCP's 57.3 (C), and leads in 5 of 7 scored categories.
