Reading Resources from the Client

Let's now take the final step: adding functionality to the client so it can read the resource's data from your MCP server! This list of currencies and their symbols could be used as a checklist by an LLM to check that the user is requesting a currency supported by the convert_currency() tool, and also that the tool function's arguments are valid currency symbols.

The currency_server.py file has been spun up and is ready for you to use.
