Frequently asked questions
How do I find documents from a specific agency like the FDA?
First, use the list_agencies tool to find the correct agency slug or ID. Then, use the search_documents tool and provide that slug in the agencies parameter to filter results.
Can I see documents before they are officially published in the daily register?
Yes! Use the search_public_inspection or get_current_public_inspection tools. These access the 'Public Inspection' desk, which contains documents filed for public review before their formal publication date.
Is it possible to search for documents related to a specific Regulation Identifier Number (RIN)?
Absolutely. Use the search_documents tool and provide the rin parameter. This will return all published documents associated with that specific regulatory action.
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.
