- Product Discovery — Access available product catalogs and retrieve detailed specifications for individual items (product UIDs).
- Fulfillment Tracking — Retrieve tracking numbers and real-time shipment details for every order in your account.
- Pricing & Quoting — Request real-time shipping and production quotes for potential orders across different regions.

Frequently asked questions
How do I get an API Key for Gelato?
Log in to your Gelato dashboard, navigate to Developers > API keys, and you can generate a new production or test key there.
What is the difference between an Order ID and a Reference ID?
The Order ID is generated by Gelato, while the Reference ID is your own internal identifier passed during order creation to map the records.
Can I cancel an order via the agent?
Yes, use the 'cancel_print_order' tool. Note that cancellation is only possible if the order status is still 'created' and production hasn't started.
How do I find the correct product UID?
Use the 'list_catalog_products' tool to browse available items. The agent will return the unique 'productUid' needed for order creation.
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 Gelato MCP integration works identically with OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or any supported provider.
