LangGraph and MCP: Switching to HTTP Transport for Remote Bots

The author encountered issues with a support bot built using LangGraph and MCP when deployed remotely, discovering that the default local stdio transport was unsuitable for inter-machine communication. To resolve this, they implemented the Streamable HTTP transport, which enables message exchange over HTTP. This required modifying the code to use `mcp.transport.http` and highlighted the need for reliable connections and potential use of libraries like `tenacity` for handling disconnections. AI
