Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open protocol that standardizes how applications provide tools and context to language models. LangGraph agents can use tools defined on MCP servers through the langchain-mcp-adapters library. MCP Install the langchain-mcp-adapters library to use MCP tools in LangGraph: 
pip install langchain-mcp-adapters

​
Use MCP tools

The langchain-mcp-adapters package enables agents to use tools defined across one or more MCP servers.

            "url": "http://localhost:8000/mcp",
            "transport": "streamable_http",
        }

# highlight-next-line
tools = await client.get_tools()
agent = create_react_agent(
    "anthropic:claude-3-7-sonnet-latest",
    # highlight-next-line
    tools
)
math_response = await agent.ainvoke(
    {"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "what's (3 + 5) x 12?"}]}
)
weather_response = await agent.ainvoke(
    {"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "what is the weather in nyc?"}]}
)

Custom MCP servers

To create your own MCP servers, you can use the mcp library. This library provides a simple way to define tools and run them as servers. Install the MCP library: 
pip install mcp
Use the following reference implementations to test your agent with MCP tool servers.
Example Math Server (stdio transport)
from mcp.server.fastmcp import FastMCP

mcp = FastMCP("Math")

@mcp.tool()
def add(a: int, b: int) -> int:
    """Add two numbers"""
    return a + b

@mcp.tool()
def multiply(a: int, b: int) -> int:
    """Multiply two numbers"""
    return a * b

if __name__ == "__main__":
    mcp.run(transport="stdio")
Example Weather Server (Streamable HTTP transport)
from mcp.server.fastmcp import FastMCP

mcp = FastMCP("Weather")

@mcp.tool()
async def get_weather(location: str) -> str:
    """Get weather for location."""
    return "It's always sunny in New York"

if __name__ == "__main__":
    mcp.run(transport="streamable-http")
