Frequently asked questions
How do I add a new tracking number?
Use the create_tracking tool and provide the tracking number and the courier slug (e.g., 'fedex', 'dhl'). Your agent will add it to AfterShip and start monitoring the status.
Can the agent automatically detect the courier?
Yes! Use the detect_courier tool with any tracking number. AfterShip will analyze the format and return a list of potential carrier matches.
What tracking statuses are supported?
AfterShip normalizes tracking data into standard statuses: Pending, In Transit, Out for Delivery, Delivered, Exception, and Failed Attempt.
How does Pydantic AI discover MCP tools?
Create an MCPServerHTTP instance with the server URL. Pydantic AI connects, discovers all tools, and generates typed Python interfaces automatically.
Does Pydantic AI validate MCP tool responses?
Yes. When you define result types as Pydantic models, every tool response is validated against the schema. Invalid data raises a clear error instead of silently corrupting your pipeline.
Can I switch LLM providers without changing MCP code?
Absolutely. Pydantic AI abstracts the model layer. your AfterShip Tracking MCP integration works identically with OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or any supported provider.
