These properties are used to configure cLangChainMCPClient running in the Standard Route framework.

The Standard cLangChainMCPClient component belongs to the AI family.

Basic settings

Properties Description
Transport / Type Select the transport type from:
  • Stdio: The STDIO (Standard Input/Output) transport method launches an MCP server as a sub-process and communicates with it through standard input/output streams. This method is most suitable for local execution.
  • Streamable HTTP: The Streamable HTTP transport replaces the traditional HTTP+SSE transport for remote MCP server communication. It operates over HTTP/HTTPS and allows for more flexible server implementations.
    Information noteNote: This option is available only if you have installed the R2025-12 Talend Studio Monthly update or a later one delivered by Talend. For more information, check with your administrator.
  • SSE: The SSE (Server-Sent Events) transport method establishes a persistent connection with the MCP server over HTTP using SSE for streaming communication. This method is suitable for remote execution.
Executable (for Stdio transport type only) Enter the path to the executable on your local file system to launch the MCP server.
Arguments (for Stdio transport type only) Enter the arguments for the executable as needed.
Event Streaming URL (for SSE transport type only) Enter the URL of the MCP server.
Timeout(s) (for SSE transport type only) Set a timeout period for the connection to the MCP server in seconds.
Connection

Select the cLangChainConnection component that connects to the language model.
