Frequently asked questions
Can I publish a new post directly from the chat?
Yes! Use the create_article tool by providing a title and the markdown content. You can also set the published status to true or false for drafts.
How do I see my own drafts and published posts?
You can use the list_my_articles tool. It allows you to filter by type, such as 'all', 'published', or 'unpublished' (drafts).
Can I look up another user's profile information?
Yes, use the get_user tool with either their unique User ID or their username to retrieve their public profile details.
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 Dev.to (Forem) MCP integration works identically with OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or any supported provider.
