Frequently asked questions
Can I calculate sales tax for a specific address via AI?
Yes! Use the calculate_sales_tax tool. Provide the destination country, zip code, and state along with the order amount. Your agent will return the precise tax to be collected.
How do I see in which states I have a tax nexus?
Run the list_nexus_regions query. The agent will retrieve a list of all regions (states or countries) where you have configured a tax nexus in your TaxJar account.
Is it possible to validate a shipping address via AI?
Absolutely. Use the validate_tax_address tool and provide the full address details. The agent will verify the address through TaxJar to ensure it is accurate for tax purposes.
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 TaxJar MCP integration works identically with OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or any supported provider.
