How to Use the APImage MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

Q: How do I connect APImage to my OpenAI Agents SDK pipeline?

Instantiate the MCP server using the MCPServerStreamableHttp class with your Vinkius endpoint URL. Pass this instance into the mcpservers list when initializing your Agent. The SDK auto-discovers all ten image tools instantly.

Q: Which models are available for image generation?

Call listmodels to see the active lineup of generation engines. Your agent can inspect this list dynamically and select the best model for the specific task at hand.

Build production-grade vision agents that generate and edit images directly through the OpenAI Agents SDK.

Refine and generate images in OpenAI Agents SDK

`generate_image` is the core tool on this MCP Server that turns text prompts into high-resolution visuals. Your agent uses `enhance_prompt` first to rewrite basic user inputs into descriptive instructions, which prevents bad outputs before they happen. This setup works directly with your agent's built-in guardrails. You get clean, predictable images because the agent refines the prompt before sending it to the generation queue.

Run surgical image edits inside your agent workflows

`inpaint_image` modifies specific masked regions of an existing file based on your agent's instructions. When you need to transform an entire visual asset, `image_to_image` handles the conversion by applying a new prompt over the source file structure. The agent manages these edits step-by-step during a single run. You can trace every modification and prompt change directly on your OpenAI dashboard.

Scale and clean outputs with this MCP Server

`remove_background` isolates subjects instantly by stripping out the backdrops of your generated files. Your agent then triggers `upscale_image` to increase resolution for production use without losing fine details. If you need to audit past work, the agent calls `list_generations` to pull your history. It checks `get_generation` to pull specific details of any past run to keep your pipeline consistent.

Setup guide

Set up APImage MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
openai-agents package (pip install openai-agents)
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install the SDK

Run pip install openai-agents to install the OpenAI Agents SDK. The MCP integration is built-in — no extra dependencies needed.
2

Connect via SSE transport

Use MCPServerSse with your Vinkius endpoint URL. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com. The SDK auto-discovers all APImage tools at runtime.
3

Create your Agent

Pass the MCP to Agent(mcp_servers=[server]). The agent receives APImage tools as native definitions — JSON schemas resolve automatically.
4

Run the agent

Call Runner.run(agent, prompt) to execute. The agent invokes the appropriate APImage tools and returns structured results. Copy the full example on the right to get started.

agent.py

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="APImage Agent",
            instructions="You have access to APImage tools.",
            mcp_servers=[server],
        )
        result = await Runner.run(agent, "List recent transactions")
        print(result.final_output)

asyncio.run(main())

Common questions about APImage MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

Instantiate the MCP server using the `MCPServerStreamableHttp` class with your Vinkius endpoint URL. Pass this instance into the `mcp_servers` list when initializing your Agent. The SDK auto-discovers all ten image tools instantly.

Yes, your agent can chain the tools. It passes raw user text to `enhance_prompt` before sending the optimized result to `generate_image`. This ensures higher quality outputs without manual prompt engineering.

The SDK manages tool execution flow, but you should monitor connectivity. Use `check_apimage_status` to verify the API is responsive before launching heavy batch generation jobs.

Call `list_models` to see the active lineup of generation engines. Your agent can inspect this list dynamically and select the best model for the specific task at hand.

Your source images, prompts, and generation history remain strictly isolated within the Vinkius V8 sandbox. We never store your raw image files or prompt strings, passing them directly to the API and returning them to your local agent environment.
