### Description (declared)

# LangChain to MCP Tool Adapter

[![PyPI version](https://badge.fury.io/py/langchain-to-mcp-tool-adapter.svg)](https://badge.fury.io/py/langchain-to-mcp-tool-adapter)
[![License: MIT](https://img.shields.io/badge/License-MIT-yellow.svg)](https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT)

A Python package for converting LangChain tools to FastMCP tools, making it easy to use your existing LangChain tools with Anthropic's MCP server.

## Why Use This Package?

- **Simpler Implementation**: While LangChain offers an MCP-to-LangChain adapter, it requires a running MCP server either remotely or co-located with an agent, which can be finicky. LangChain tools have a simpler implementation and are more lightweight.
- **Use in Multiple Environments**: When creating tools (especially for open source), you might want to make them available in both LangChain and MCP implementations without duplicating code.
- **Handle Artifacts Properly**: Automatic conversion between LangChain's `content_and_artifact` format and MCP's content format for images, PDFs, and other binary data.
- **Preserve Metadata**: Tool descriptions, argument schemas, and other metadata are preserved during conversion.

## Installation

```bash
pip install langchain-to-mcp-tool-adapter
```

## Quick Start

```python
from mcp.server import FastMCP
from langchain.tools import Tool
from langchain_to_mcp_tool_adapter import add_langchain_tool_to_server

# Create a LangChain tool
def multiply(a: int, b: int) -> int:
    """Multiply two numbers."""
    return a * b

calculator_tool = Tool(
    name="calculator",
    description="Multiply two numbers together",
    func=multiply
)

# Create a FastMCP server and add the tool
server = FastMCP()
add_langchain_tool_to_server(server, calculator_tool)

# Run the server
server.run()
```

## Working with Argument Schemas

### Type Annotations

```python
from typing import Annotated, List
from langchain.tools import tool

@tool("multiplication-tool")
def multiply_type_annotation(
    a: A…
