Could you outline an example for this?
Haven’t yet tried using them in tandem and I’m wondering how would I do that.
AFAIS Tidewave acts as a general MCP server while Ash AI goes through Ash.
I imagine if I want MCP to fetch something Tidewave would access the database directly while Ash AI would go through a read action - is this correct?

There are three separate MCPs in this conversation:

Hi @zachdaniel ,
thanks for looking into adding this great addition to Ash as it is one of the things I believe will be in demand in the future “Making software ready for AI agents customers”.
I have tried the chat one as a sample and I just would like to confirm with you what it can provide, I tried it with just a sample new project and I noticed it gives me just general answers right now, is this the intent? Or the intent to have a new interface to services based on prompt? as an example “prompt : generate an invoice to the customer ABC and send it to the e-mail”?
One amazing thing, I switched to another language and right away it answered
below image shows what I got now.

You can add tools by modifying the response change. See the readme for how to make your ash actions callable as tools
then, alter the code in your response change like 
tools: [:your, :tool, :names]. Then your agent can use your app via those toolsvasspilka
Ash ecosystem is killing it!
Congrats on the new release
