Frequently asked questions
Can I trigger a scan for just one specific library?
Yes! Use the scan_library tool and provide the specific Library ID. The agent will trigger a targeted scan to detect new or changed content in that folder only.
How do I check if my API key is still valid?
You can run the check_authkey_expires tool. It will return the exact expiration timestamp for your current API key, helping you avoid service interruptions.
Can I refresh my entire collection at once?
Absolutely. Use the scan_all_libraries tool to trigger a global scan across all configured libraries in your Kavita instance.
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 Kavita (eBook/Manga) MCP integration works identically with OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or any supported provider.
