Frequently asked questions
How do I find data for a specific local police department?
You can use the get_agency_summarized tool. You will need the agency's 9-character ORI (Originating Agency Identifier) to retrieve their specific reported statistics.
What kind of demographic information is available for crime victims?
The get_nibrs_victim_demographics tool allows you to filter victim data by age, race, or sex for specific offenses in states that support NIBRS reporting.
Can I compare crime trends over multiple years?
Yes. Tools like get_national_estimates and get_state_summarized accept start_year and end_year parameters to provide data across a historical range.
How does the Vercel AI SDK connect to MCP servers?
Import createMCPClient from @ai-sdk/mcp and pass the server URL. The SDK discovers all tools and provides typed TypeScript interfaces for each one.
Can I use MCP tools in Edge Functions?
Yes. The AI SDK is fully edge-compatible. MCP connections work on Vercel Edge Functions, Cloudflare Workers, and similar runtimes.
Does it support streaming tool results?
Yes. The SDK provides streaming primitives like useChat and streamText that handle tool calls and display results progressively in the UI.
createMCPClient is not a function
Install: npm install @ai-sdk/mcp
