How to Use the Aiven MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK
Deploy self-healing database architectures with the OpenAI Agents SDK and our managed MCP Server.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Aiven MCP to OpenAI Agents SDK
Create your Vinkius account to connect Aiven to OpenAI Agents SDK and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Programmatic VPC and database provisioning
The `create_service` tool builds active database clusters across multiple cloud providers without leaving your Python code. Your agent triggers this tool alongside `create_project_vpc` to spin up isolated network environments dynamically. It's a matter of passing the right parameters, and the agent handles the API calls. Let's look at the logs. When the agent calls `list_project_service_types`, it verifies available database engines before executing a build. This prevents runtime errors during deployment pipelines.
Automatic cost and billing guardrails
The `list_billing_groups` tool exposes active billing accounts to prevent your agent from spinning up expensive, unmonitored resources. By combining this with `list_billing_group_invoices`, the OpenAI agent tracks real-time spend before initiating new clusters. Here's the thing: you can enforce strict spending limits in your agent guardrails. If a proposed database exceeds the remaining budget of the active billing group, the agent halts the execution before calling `create_service`.
Safe teardown workflows in OpenAI Agents SDK
The `delete_service` tool terminates running database instances when they are no longer needed by your testing pipelines. Your agent calls this tool to clean up temporary environments, keeping your cloud footprint small and your costs down. To avoid accidental data loss, the agent runs a multi-step check. It runs `list_services` to verify the targets, then checks team permissions via `list_account_teams` before executing `delete_project` or service termination.
Set up Aiven MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK
Prerequisites
- Python 3.10+ installed
-
openai-agentspackage (pip install openai-agents) - Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token
- 1
Install the SDK
Run
pip install openai-agentsto install the OpenAI Agents SDK. The MCP integration is built-in — no extra dependencies needed. - 2
Connect via SSE transport
Use
MCPServerSsewith your Vinkius endpoint URL. Replace[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]with your token from cloud.vinkius.com. The SDK auto-discovers all Aiven tools at runtime. - 3
Create your Agent
Pass the MCP to
Agent(mcp_servers=[server]). The agent receives Aiven tools as native definitions — JSON schemas resolve automatically. - 4
Run the agent
Call
Runner.run(agent, prompt)to execute. The agent invokes the appropriate Aiven tools and returns structured results. Copy the full example on the right to get started.
import asyncio
from agents import Agent, Runner
from agents.mcp import MCPServerSse
async def main():
async with MCPServerSse(
url="https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
) as server:
agent = Agent(
name="Aiven Agent",
instructions="You have access to Aiven tools.",
mcp_servers=[server],
)
result = await Runner.run(agent, "List recent transactions")
print(result.final_output)
