Math AI Agent
A prompt chat webapp that drives an LLM call inside an agentic loop using
the calculator_mcp MCP server for arithmetic operations. The key constraint is
that the LLM is given explicit system instructions to use calculator_mcp for
any arithmetic operations.
Features
- FastAPI web UI — simple form-based interface for submitting prompts
- MCP client — connects to a remote calculator MCP server with optional OAuth authentication
- Configurable — MCP server URL, OAuth settings, LLM endpoint and model,
and logging are all driven by
config.yaml - Plain-text answers — the model is instructed to reply without LaTeX or
Markdown, since the web UI renders answers in a plain
<textarea>
Unsupported Features
- Server-sent events (SSE) are not supported for either LLM or MCP communication.
- Streaming communication channels, such as Streamable HTTP, are not supported. In other words, both the LLM model and the MCP server are expected to generate the entire output before sending it.
- Stateful Responses API communication may not be supported, depending on the LLM model selected in the configuration.
- Input types such as images and videos are not supported. Only text input is supported.
- Tools available to the LLM are limited to
calculator_mcp. Other tool types, such asbuilt-in tools(for example, web search and file search) andfunction calls, are not supported.
Bear in mind that support for the features listed above also depends on the capabilities of the selected LLM model. For example, the default configured model, NVIDIA Nemotron 3 Super, does not support storing conversation history and supports only text input.

Overriding the calculator-mcp URL
A non-empty CALCULATOR_MCP_URL overrides server.calculator_mcp.url.
