from langchain_openai import ChatOpenAI
from mcp_use import MCPAgent, MCPClient

async def main():
    config = {
        "mcpServers": {
            "filesystem": {
                "command": "npx",
                "args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem", "/tmp"]
            }
        }
    }

    client = MCPClient.from_dict(config)
    llm = ChatOpenAI(model="gpt-4o")
    agent = MCPAgent(llm=llm, client=client)

    result = await agent.run("List all files in the directory")
    print(result)

asyncio.run(main())
