Yes. Use the get_user_grades tool by providing the course_id and the student's username. The agent will return the grading breakdown for that specific user.
Is it possible to enroll a user in a course via the AI?
Absolutely. The enroll_in_course tool allows you to register the authenticated user into any course by specifying its unique course_id.
Can I update user profile information like names or emails?
Yes, the update_user_profile tool enables you to modify the name or email associated with a specific username in your Open edX instance.
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.
