// This sample shows how to create and use a simple AI agent with OpenAI Responses as the backend, that uses a Hosted MCP Tool.
// In this case the OpenAI responses service will invoke any MCP tools as required. MCP tools are not invoked by the Agent Framework.
// The sample first shows how to use MCP tools with auto approval, and then how to set up a tool that requires approval before it can be invoked and how to approve such a tool.
