How to Use the ATS Anywhere MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

Q: How do I connect ATS Anywhere to the OpenAI Agents SDK?

Initialize MCPServerStreamableHttp with your Vinkius URL. Pass it into the mcpservers array when building your Agent. Set cacheToolsList=True to speed up initialization.

Q: Can my OpenAI Agents SDK system verify the ATS Anywhere connection?

Call the getaccountcheck tool. Your agent will ping the ATS API to confirm authentication is working before trying to fetch candidate data.

Manage jobs with strict guardrails

The `list_jobs` and `create_job` tools let your OpenAI agents directly manage your company's open roles. You define the safety constraints in your agent configuration, ensuring no job posting goes live without validation. Passing the ATS Anywhere MCP Server to the Agent constructor via `mcp_servers` exposes these endpoints automatically. Tracing via the OpenAI dashboard tracks exactly when an agent drafts a new role or pulls existing job details.

Auto-discover applicant profiles

Running `list_applicants` alongside `get_applicant` pulls candidate profiles straight into your specialized recruiting agent's context. Set up handoffs between a screening agent and an interview-scheduling agent based on the parsed resume data. Since OpenAI Agents SDK auto-discovers these endpoints, your code stays clean. You just pass the Vinkius URL into `MCPServerStreamableHttp` and let the framework handle the HTTP streams.

Fetch internal recruiter notes

Fetching internal feedback happens through the `get_applicant_notes` and `list_users` tools. Your agent reads what human recruiters wrote about a candidate before drafting a rejection or offer letter. This MCP implementation runs in a zero-trust V8 isolate. That means your agent pulls sensitive hiring feedback securely, without exposing your core infrastructure to third-party code.

Setup guide

Set up ATS Anywhere 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 ATS Anywhere tools at runtime.
3

Create your Agent

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

Run the agent

Call Runner.run(agent, prompt) to execute. The agent invokes the appropriate ATS Anywhere 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="ATS Anywhere Agent",
            instructions="You have access to ATS Anywhere tools.",
            mcp_servers=[server],
        )
        result = await Runner.run(agent, "List recent transactions")
        print(result.final_output)

asyncio.run(main())

Common questions about ATS Anywhere MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

Initialize `MCPServerStreamableHttp` with your Vinkius URL. Pass it into the `mcp_servers` array when building your Agent. Set `cacheToolsList=True` to speed up initialization.

Call the `get_account_check` tool. Your agent will ping the ATS API to confirm authentication is working before trying to fetch candidate data.

No. The SDK auto-discovers every tool exposed by the MCP Server. You just provide the connection parameters.

OpenAI Agents SDK enforces the guardrails you define. If the `create_job` payload violates your constraints, the framework blocks the execution before it hits the API.

Vinkius runs the connection in an ephemeral V8 sandbox. When your agent pulls resumes or internal feedback via `get_applicant`, the data flows through a zero-trust environment without persisting on our servers.
