Frequently asked questions
Can I create a draft without publishing it immediately?
Yes! When using the create_article tool, simply set the published parameter to false. The article will be saved as a draft in your account.
How do I find my own articles that I haven't published yet?
You can use the get_my_unpublished_articles tool. It will return a list of all your drafts currently stored on DEV.to.
Is it possible to update the tags or content of an existing post?
Absolutely. Use the update_article tool with the specific article id. You can modify the title, body, tags, and other metadata fields.
How does Google ADK connect to MCP servers?
Import the MCP toolset class and pass the server URL. ADK discovers and registers all tools automatically, making them available to your agent's tool-use loop.
Can ADK agents use multiple MCP servers?
Yes. Declare multiple MCP tool providers in your agent configuration. ADK merges all tool schemas and the agent can call tools from any server in a single turn.
Which Gemini models work best with MCP tools?
Gemini 2.0 Flash and Pro models both support function calling required for MCP tools. Flash is recommended for latency-sensitive use cases, Pro for complex reasoning.
