Frequently asked questions
Can my agent search only for commercially safe images in Getty?
Yes. Use the 'search_creative' tool. It pre-filters results for commercial, advertising, and marketing use, ensuring the assets you discover are commercially safe natively.
How do I download an image through the agent?
Use the 'download_image' tool. Provide the Asset ID. Note that this requires an active subscription and will consume your corporate quota. The agent will return a secure download URL synchronously.
Can I find images similar to one I already liked through the agent?
Absolutely. Use the 'get_similar' tool. Provide the ID of your source image, and the agent will analyze its visual properties to find related compositions and aesthetic patterns within Getty's library.
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?
