​
Add Sequential Thinking Tool to AI Agent

​
Quick Start

1

Install Dependencies

Make sure you have Node.js installed, as the MCP server requires it:

pip install praisonaiagents mcp
2

Set API Key

Set your OpenAI API key as an environment variable in your terminal:

export OPENAI_API_KEY=your_openai_api_key_here
3

Create a file

Create a new file sequential_thinking.py with the following code:

from praisonaiagents import Agent, MCP
import os

# Use a single string command with Sequential Thinking configuration
sequential_agent = Agent(
    instructions="""You are a helpful assistant that can break down complex problems.
    Use the available tools when relevant to perform step-by-step analysis.""",
    llm="gpt-4o-mini",
    tools=MCP("npx -y @modelcontextprotocol/server-sequential-thinking")
)

sequential_agent.start("Break down the process of making a cup of tea")
4

Run the Agent

Execute your script:

python sequential_thinking.py

Requirements

  • Python 3.10 or higher
  • Node.js installed on your system
  • OpenAI API key (for the agent’s LLM)
