How to Use the Liveblocks MCP in Pydantic AI

Q: How do I set up the Liveblocks MCP Server in my Pydantic AI project?

Install the library using pip install "pydantic-ai-slimmcp". Create an MCPToolset pointing to your Vinkius HTTP server, and pass it to the Agent toolsets list.

Q: Can my Pydantic AI agent manage Liveblocks comment threads?

Yes. The agent uses listthreads to read discussions and resolvethread to close completed tasks, with all thread data validated against Pydantic models.

Q: Why should I use the unified MCPToolset over deprecated classes?

The unified MCPToolset class provides a cleaner interface and robust connection management for streamable HTTP transports. It replaces deprecated classes like MCPServerHTTP.

Validate Liveblocks Storage with Pydantic AI

The `get_storage` tool retrieves the collaborative state of a room, which Pydantic AI immediately parses against your defined Python models. If the schema returned by the server doesn't match your expected structure, the framework raises a validation error instantly. This strict validation prevents your agent from executing corrupt updates. When the agent needs to write data, it uses `patch_storage` with confidence, knowing the payload matches your strict runtime constraints.

Type-Safe Yjs Document Inspections

The `get_ydoc` tool fetches the JSON representation of your Yjs shared types for deep inspection. Your agent parses this data against Pydantic schemas to verify the consistency of complex collaborative text, maps, or arrays. To apply updates, the agent uses `update_ydoc` to push binary changes back to the room. The type-safe environment guarantees that no malformed binary payloads are sent to your users' active sessions.

Secure Room Provisioning via MCP Server

The `create_room` tool allows your agent to create workspaces with strict metadata validation. Before calling `initialize_storage`, Pydantic AI checks the room configuration to set up the baseline collaborative state. Before users can connect, the agent runs `authorize_user` to generate their access tokens. Every parameter is validated at runtime, ensuring your security policies are strictly enforced.

Setup guide

Set up Liveblocks 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": {
        "liveblocks-mcp": {
            "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
        }
    }
})

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

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