Usage
import { ChatPrompt } from "@microsoft/teams.ai";
import { McpClientPlugin } from "@microsoft/teams.mcpclient";
const prompt = new ChatPrompt(
{
instructions: "You are a helpful assistant.",
model: yourModel,
},
[new McpClientPlugin()],
).usePlugin("mcpClient", { url: "http://your-mcp-server/mcp" });
Features
- 🔌 Automatic tool discovery from MCP servers
- 💾 Optional caching of tool parameters (if you'd like to avoid the discovery call or only pass in a subset of tools)
