Type-safe anime queries in Pydantic AI

Every response from `get_media` and `get_studio` is validated against your Pydantic models. If the server returns bad data, your agent catches it immediately. This prevents runtime errors in your agent logic. You get reliable data structures that match your code's expectations exactly.

Validated list management for Pydantic AI

Use `save_media_list_entry` to push updates with full schema validation. Your agent will fail loudly if the data doesn't conform to your requirements. This ensures your watchlist remains consistent. You never have to worry about silent corruption or missing fields in your API calls.

Search characters using Pydantic AI

The `search_characters` tool provides a structured list that your agent can parse reliably. It turns raw query results into objects your code understands. Your agent handles these objects with full type safety. It makes building complex interactions with the character database straightforward and safe.

Setup guide

Set up AniList GraphQL 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": {
        "anilist-graphql-mcp": {
            "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
        }
    }
})

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

result = await agent.run("List recent AniList GraphQL transactions")
print(result.output)
