Documents the hosted expert-model MCP server (https://mcp.edenai.run/mcp), which exposes Eden AI's expert models as MCP tools.

New page: Expert Models > MCP Server (v3/expert-models/mcp-server.mdx), added as the first entry of the Expert Models nav group.

Contents

  • Endpoint, transport and auth, plus a note that tool calls bill the key in the header and show up in monitoring
  • Generic MCP client config for desktop assistants and IDEs
  • The 39-tool catalog grouped by family, plus the three shared conventions: model selects the provider, file parameters take a URL or an upload_file ID, and long-running tools return a job to poll with check_job
  • Agent loops for the OpenAI SDK and the Anthropic SDK, so any function-calling model can use the tools without an MCP-aware client
  • upload_file and check_job examples
  • Filtering the model catalog on capabilities.supports_function_calling
  • Best practices drawn from validation: echo back only spec fields, cap tool-result size, treat tool errors as results, filter the catalog before sending it, prefer URLs over uploads

Accuracy

Tool names, required arguments, the provider / provider/model form of the model argument, the expires_in_days bounds and the list of long-running tools were read from the deployed server via list_tools and list_models, not transcribed from notes.

Example models are stable aliases (google/gemini-flash-latest, anthropic/claude-haiku-latest), both confirmed present in the catalog with supports_function_calling.

Examples use base_url="https://api.edenai.run/v3" to match the rest of the docs. Both /v3 and /v3/llm routes were confirmed to exist before settling on the documented one.

The Anthropic example registers the search tool under an alias (internet_search). A custom tool named exactly web_search collides with provider-native web search on that surface for some models, so the workaround is built into the shipped code rather than left as a footnote.

Testing

The four MCP snippets are marked {/* skip-test */}: they need the production MCP endpoint, real credits and the mcp package, none of which the sandbox-token snippet harness provides. They are still written as self-contained async def helpers so the generated module parses, because skipped blocks are emitted into it too and a syntax error there would take the whole page's tests down.

The model-catalog snippet stays live-tested and passes.

Note: pytest tests/ cannot start in my environment (conftest.pytest_sessionstart gets a 401 from staging-api.edenai.run/v2/user/custom_token/). That is pre-existing and unrelated to this change, so the live snippet was verified by executing the generated block directly against the API. Worth a green CI run before merge.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation
    • Added a comprehensive MCP Server guide to the V3 Expert Models documentation.
    • Documented authentication, HTTP client setup, dynamic tool discovery, shared conventions, function-calling integrations, document processing, model filtering, error handling, and configurable OCR polling.
    • Updated examples for MCP Python SDK v2, including compatibility guidance for SDK v1.
    • Added MCP Server setup instructions for Claude Code, Cline, Codex CLI, Continue.dev, Hermes, OpenClaw, and OpenCode.
    • Added the MCP Server guide to the documentation navigation.

Add a page covering the hosted MCP server at mcp.edenai.run, which exposes
Eden AI's expert models as tools: endpoint and auth, MCP client config, the
39-tool catalog by family, the shared argument conventions, agent loops for
the OpenAI and Anthropic SDKs, file upload and async job polling, the
supports_function_calling filter, and best practices.

Catalog details (tool names, required arguments, the provider/model form of
the model argument, upload expiry bounds, and which tools are long-running)
were read from the deployed server rather than transcribed.

The four MCP snippets are marked skip-test: they need the prod MCP endpoint,
real credits, and the mcp package, none of which the sandbox-token snippet
harness provides. They are still written as self-contained async functions so
the generated test module parses, since skipped blocks are emitted too. The
model-catalog snippet stays live-tested.

Walkthrough

The PR adds a V3 Expert Models MCP Server page and links it from navigation. It documents endpoint setup, authentication, tool discovery, function-calling integrations, document processing, OCR polling, model filtering, best practices, and supported client configurations.

Changes

MCP Server documentation

Layer / File(s) Summary
MCP Server setup and conventions
docs.json, v3/expert-models/mcp-server.mdx
Adds the page to navigation. Documents endpoint access, authentication, tool discovery, provider selection, file inputs, asynchronous jobs, model filtering, best practices, and related resources.
Function-calling integrations
v3/expert-models/mcp-server.mdx
Adds OpenAI-compatible and Anthropic-compatible Python examples with SDK v2 APIs, schema translation, tool execution, name aliasing, error handling, empty-argument handling, and result limits.
Document processing and client configuration
v3/expert-models/mcp-server.mdx, v3/integrations/*.mdx
Documents document uploads, reuse, expiration, file IDs, OCR polling, configurable timeouts, and polling intervals. Adds MCP setup instructions for Claude Code, Cline, Codex CLI, Continue.dev, Hermes, OpenClaw, and OpenCode. Updates modification dates.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 3c7db

The new documentation includes examples with unresolved issues such as missing authorization, silent or unbounded tool workflows, incorrect polling behavior, navigation inconsistencies, and HTTP clients that are not closed. Users could encounter failed calls, incomplete results, hangs, or leaked connections, so the PR is not merge-ready until these bounded issues are fixed or explicitly accepted.

Poem

A rabbit maps the MCP trail,
With hosted tools and clients in detail.
Schemas guide each model call,
OCR waits, then reports all.

Align the upload retention default.

v3/llms.txt documents a 30-day upload value, while v3/llms/file-upload.mdx documents a 7-day default. Align the file-upload page with the upload API documentation. The 130 range is not documented elsewhere in the repository.

The MCP server page carried a single generic mcpServers JSON block hedged
with "the exact key names vary between clients". That block is the Claude
Desktop shape and is wrong for most clients, so a reader on any other
integration page who copied it got nothing working.

Replace it with the connection facts plus a table linking to per-client
sections, and add an "Expert Models as Tools (MCP)" section to the seven
client pages whose MCP support and syntax were verified against upstream
docs. Each shows that client's real config:

  claude-code   claude mcp add --transport http, or .mcp.json type "http"
  codex-cli     [mcp_servers.edenai] url + bearer_token_env_var
  cline         cline_mcp_settings.json, type "streamableHttp"
  continue-dev  config.yaml, type streamable-http + requestOptions.headers
  opencode      opencode.json, mcp.<name> type "remote"
  hermes        config.yaml mcp_servers, headers with ${VAR} interpolation
  openclaw      openclaw.json mcp.servers, transport "streamable-http"

Five distinct config shapes across seven clients, which is why the single
generic block could not have been right.

Pi and Open Code Review are left out on purpose. Pi reaches MCP through an
extension that documents stdio and SSE transports only, not the streamable
HTTP this server speaks. Open Code Review is itself an MCP server, and
feeding OCR or web search to a code-review pipeline is a weak fit.

The framework and SDK pages are also left out: the agent loops on the MCP
server page already cover driving the tools from code.

@hMED22 hMED22 self-assigned this Aug 27, 2026
The page listed all 39 tool names in a family table, repeated the count in
two places, and named the nine long-running tools in a third. Every one of
those is a hand-copied snapshot of a catalog that changes when the expert
model lineup changes, so they can only drift.

The docs already carry a self-maintaining list: generate-features.yml
regenerates the AI Features Reference and the feature nav daily from the
live catalog. Point at that instead, name only the three utility tools
(which are not features, so the generated index does not cover them, and
which are stable), and add a list_tools snippet so readers can ask the
server directly.

Replace the long-running name list with the rule the server itself
reports: those tools say "Long-running" in their description. Drop both
hardcoded counts.

Verified before switching: the 36 feature pages plus 3 utility tools
account for exactly the 39 tools the server returns, and the 9 async
feature pages correspond 1:1 to the 9 long-running tools. The features
index is not in the nav but returns 200, and the generator preserves
non-feature pages, so the mcp-server nav entry survives the daily run.

- Guard the OpenAI loop against empty tool-call arguments. A provider can
  send arguments as "" for a tool with no required parameters, and
  json.loads("") raises, stopping the documented loop.

- Add the missing bearer flag to the Codex CLI command. It was presented as
  the equivalent of the TOML block but omitted auth, so it would have
  registered the server unauthenticated.

- Bound the async polling helper with a timeout instead of looping forever.

- Scope the upload retention sentence to the MCP tool. The tool sends a
  30-day retention by default (per its own input schema), while /v3/upload
  keeps a file for 7 days when the caller does not ask for longer, so the
  two pages were only apparently in conflict. Say which is which and link
  across rather than changing either default.

upload_file, ocr_async, and check_job can return error results. The examples call json.loads(...) and access required keys before checking isError, which turns normal tool failures into JSONDecodeError or KeyError and hides the service error.

Report tool-loop exhaustion.

If every response contains tool calls, both loops finish without break. main() then returns without printing a result or raising an error. Add a for-else branch or an explicit post-loop failure.

Use api_token for the production credential.

The Python examples use API_KEY for a production token. Rename this local variable to api_token in both the OpenAI and Anthropic examples. Keep EDENAI_API_KEY as the required environment-variable name.

As per coding guidelines, distinguish production api_token from testing sandbox_api_token.

Enforce the polling timeout by elapsed time.

range(timeout_s // interval_s) performs zero polls when timeout_s < interval_s. Request latency and the final sleep can also exceed timeout_s. Use a monotonic deadline, sleep only for the remaining time, and reject non-positive timeout_s or interval_s.

The examples used the 1.x transport API, which 2.0 removed, so a reader
following `pip install mcp` got an ImportError on the first import. Five
separate breakages, all verified against mcp 2.1.1 and the live server:

- streamablehttp_client is gone; the name is streamable_http_client
- headers= is gone; build the client with create_mcp_http_client(headers=...)
  and pass it as http_client=
- the transport yields (read, write), not (read, write, get_session_id)
- tool.inputSchema is now tool.input_schema
- result.isError is now result.is_error

Pin the install to "mcp>=2" rather than trying to support both: 1.x yields
a three-value tuple and 2.x a two-value tuple, so no single unpacking form
covers both. Add a note recording the 1.x spellings for anyone pinned to it.

This is the incompatibility CodeRabbit flagged and I dismissed. It only
looked fine because the venv I validated in had 1.26.0, where the removed
name still exists as a deprecated alias.

Comment thread v3/expert-models/mcp-server.mdx Outdated
The version note explained the whole 1.x to 2.x migration to justify the
pin. The install line right above it already says "mcp>=2", so state the
requirement and leave the migration detail in the commit that made the
change.

Swap the example prompt for one that is not tied to a specific vendor. It
still needs a live web_search to answer, which is what the example is
demonstrating.
…le snippets

Close the caller-owned HTTP client. streamable_http_client tracks whether
the client was passed in and only enters its context when it created it
("if not client_provided"), so a client handed to http_client= is never
closed by the SDK. Both loops now open it as a context manager alongside
the transport and session.

Bound the polling helper by a monotonic deadline. range(timeout_s //
interval_s) did zero polls when timeout_s < interval_s and ignored request
latency, so timeout_s did not actually bound elapsed time. Now it polls at
least once and sleeps only the time remaining.

Drop skip-test from the three definition-only snippets. print_catalog,
read_document and ocr_pdf import stdlib and define a function nothing
calls, so they run fine and the harness can verify their imports and
syntax. Only the two agent loops keep the marker: they end in
asyncio.run(), and executing them needs the mcp/openai/anthropic packages,
a production key rather than CI's sandbox token, and real billed LLM and
web_search calls on every push.

Verified against mcp 2.1.1 and the live server: the transport form returns
39 tools and the client reports is_closed after the block, the deadline
logic polls once and raises when timeout_s < interval_s, and blocks 1, 4,
5 and 6 all pass.
