How to Use the AEMO Australian Energy MCP in Pydantic AI

Q: How do I attach the AEMO Australian Energy server to Pydantic AI?

Install pydantic-ai-slimmcp. Create an MCPToolset pointing to your Vinkius HTTP URL. Pass this object to the toolsets parameter in your Agent definition.

Q: Why did my Pydantic AI agent crash when querying AEMO Australian Energy?

The framework fails loudly by design. If getfacilitydata returns a payload that violates your Pydantic model, it throws a runtime validation error instead of passing bad data to the LLM.

Enforce strict schemas on Australian electricity data with Pydantic AI. Catch invalid spot prices and grid metrics before they break your app.

Type-Safe Energy Data with Pydantic AI

This MCP Server provides complex time-series data about the Australian grid. Pydantic AI ensures every response from `get_network_data` matches your exact Python models. If the server returns a string instead of a float for a spot price, the agent fails loudly. Setup relies on the unified toolset approach. You initialize an MCPToolset with your HTTP endpoint and pass it to the Agent. There are no silent failures. You get guaranteed data structures whether you run OpenAI, Anthropic, or a local model.

Validate Market Updates and Spot Prices

Financial agents use this server to fetch market updates and spot prices without hallucinating numbers. When your model calls `get_market_data`, Pydantic AI validates the interval and date range filtering at runtime. The spot prices and regional demand figures must conform to your schema. Fetching social posts and news via `get_market_updates` works the same way. The framework checks the payload structure before the agent even attempts to parse the text. You build production systems that prioritize absolute correctness.

Strict Facility and Pollution Queries

Querying the National Pollutant Inventory via this server requires precise facility codes. The model runs `list_facilities` to find the exact string for a solar farm or coal plant. It then passes that validated string into `get_pollution_data` to fetch VOC and PM2.5 metrics. Tracking the grid transition is highly structured. Calling `get_renewable_proportion` returns exact percentages of clean energy. Pydantic AI guarantees those metrics map perfectly to your internal reporting dashboards without extra fields.

Setup guide

Set up AEMO Australian Energy MCP in Pydantic AI

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
pydantic-ai-slim[fastmcp] package
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install Pydantic AI with FastMCP
Run pip install "pydantic-ai-slim[fastmcp]". The FastMCP toolset replaces the deprecated MCPServerHTTP class with full protocol support.
2

Configure the FastMCPToolset
Pass a JSON-style config dict to FastMCPToolset with your Vinkius URL. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com. Supports Streamable HTTP, SSE, and Stdio transports.
3

Create and run your agent
Pass the toolset to Agent(toolsets=[toolset]) and call agent.run(). Swap openai:gpt-4o for any supported model — Anthropic, Google, Mistral, or Groq.

agent.py

from pydantic_ai import Agent
from pydantic_ai.toolsets.fastmcp import FastMCPToolset

toolset = FastMCPToolset({
    "mcpServers": {
        "aemo-australian-energy-mcp": {
            "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
        }
    }
})

agent = Agent(
    "openai:gpt-4o",
    toolsets=[toolset],
    system_prompt="You have access to AEMO Australian Energy tools.",
)

result = await agent.run("List recent AEMO Australian Energy transactions")
print(result.output)

Install pydantic-ai-slim[mcp]. Create an MCPToolset pointing to your Vinkius HTTP URL. Pass this object to the toolsets parameter in your Agent definition.

The framework fails loudly by design. If get_facility_data returns a payload that violates your Pydantic model, it throws a runtime validation error instead of passing bad data to the LLM.

No. You must use the new MCPToolset approach. This unified method handles both Streamable HTTP and SSE transports correctly.

Yes. The framework is completely model-agnostic. You can route get_network_by_fueltech data through Gemini, Claude, or a local Llama instance without changing the tool setup.

Everything executes in a zero-trust environment. When your agent requests PM2.5 emissions via get_pollution_data, the operation runs in an isolated V8 sandbox. Once the data returns to your instance, the execution context is completely destroyed.
