### Example Conversations

**User**: "Check if Django 4.2 is compatible with Python 3.9"

**AI Assistant**: I'll check Django 4.2's compatibility with Python 3.9 for you.

*[Uses get_package_info and check_package_python_compatibility tools]*

**User**: "What are the main dependencies of FastAPI?"

**AI Assistant**: Let me get the dependency information for FastAPI.

*[Uses get_package_dependencies tool]*

**User**: "Show me the download statistics for the requests package and tell me which is more popular: requests or urllib3?"

**AI Assistant**: I'll get the download statistics for both packages and compare their popularity.

*[Uses get_download_statistics tool for both packages]*

### Programmatic Usage

```python
# Example: Check if Django is compatible with Python 3.9
result = await mcp_client.call_tool("check_package_python_compatibility", {
    "package_name": "django",
    "target_python_version": "3.9"
})

# Example: Get package information
info = await mcp_client.call_tool("get_package_info", {
    "package_name": "requests"
})

# Example: Get download statistics
stats = await mcp_client.call_tool("get_download_statistics", {
    "package_name": "numpy",
    "period": "month"
})

# Example: Get top downloaded packages
top_packages = await mcp_client.call_tool("get_top_downloaded_packages", {
    "period": "week",
    "limit": 10
})
```
