Frequently asked questions
Can I create a custom short link using my AI agent?
Yes! Use the create_short_link action. Provide the original URL, the domain name, and an optional custom path to generate your branded link.
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 Short.io MCP integration works identically with OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or any supported provider.
