How to Use the Aporia MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK
Connect Aporia to the OpenAI Agents SDK to block toxic outputs and track model drift before your production users notice a thing.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Aporia MCP to OpenAI Agents SDK
Create your Vinkius account to connect Aporia 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.
Inline safety checks for OpenAI Agents SDK
The `validate_guardrails` tool evaluates your agent's messages for toxicity, PII, and off-topic drift before execution. You pass an array of messages, and this MCP Server immediately returns a pass or fail state. This stops bad outputs dead in their tracks. Instead of waiting for a user report, your production Python agent intercepts the hallucination, triggers a handoff, or rewrites the response based on the strict rules you defined.
Pull real-time drift metrics
The `get_metrics` tool retrieves live performance data for any tracked model in your workspace. You pair this with `get_model` to pull the exact configuration details for the agent currently running. Your multi-agent system uses these numbers to route tasks. If one model starts showing high latency or drift, the agent reads the metrics and shifts the workload to a healthier fallback without human intervention.
Trigger active oversight runs
The `trigger_monitor` tool forces an immediate evaluation of a specific model using your Aporia monitors. You can map available checks using `list_monitors` and `list_dashboards` to see what safety nets are active. This moves observability from a passive dashboard into an active loop. When your agent detects an edge case, it fires off a monitor run instantly, updating your tracing logs with fresh data.
Set up Aporia 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 Aporia tools at runtime. - 3
Create your Agent
Pass the MCP to
Agent(mcp_servers=[server]). The agent receives Aporia tools as native definitions — JSON schemas resolve automatically. - 4
Run the agent
Call
Runner.run(agent, prompt)to execute. The agent invokes the appropriate Aporia 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="Aporia Agent",
instructions="You have access to Aporia tools.",
mcp_servers=[server],
)
result = await Runner.run(agent, "List recent transactions")
print(result.final_output)
