Frequently asked questions
How do I find the specific ID for a county to get its rent data?
First, use the list_states tool to get the state code, then use list_counties with that code. This will provide you with the 10-digit FIPS code (entity ID) needed for the get_fmr_data tool.
Can I retrieve rent data for an entire state at once?
Yes! Use the get_state_fmr_data tool and provide the two-letter state code (e.g., 'NY' for New York). It will return FMR data for all metro areas and counties within that state.
What is the difference between IL and MTSP data?
IL data (get_il_data) refers to general Income Limits for housing assistance, while MTSP data (get_mtsp_il_data) specifically targets Multifamily Tax Subsidy Projects. Both can be queried using the same entity IDs.
How does LangChain connect to MCP servers?
Use langchain-mcp-adapters to create an MCP client. LangChain discovers all tools and wraps them as native LangChain tools compatible with any agent type.
Which LangChain agent types work with MCP?
All agent types including ReAct, OpenAI Functions, and custom agents work with MCP tools. The tools appear as standard LangChain tools after the adapter wraps them.
Can I trace MCP tool calls in LangSmith?
Yes. All MCP tool invocations appear as traced steps in LangSmith, showing input parameters, response payloads, latency, and token usage.
