Perplexity

Manage team challenges and rewards

Your agent can trigger `create_challenge` to set up new activities or use `assign_reward` to hand out bonuses based on performance. The SDK handles the heavy lifting so your agent logic stays clean. Everything flows through the `MCPServerStreamableHttp` interface. Your production agent verifies these actions through built-in guardrails before anything hits the Betterfly backend.

Pull wellness stats for your OpenAI agents

Get deep insight into your workforce using `get_company_metrics` and `get_impact_stats`. These tools feed live data directly into your agent's reasoning loop. By setting `cacheToolsList=True` in your configuration, you keep the interaction snappy. Your agent gains immediate access to the full suite of Betterfly functions without latency.

Monitor employee health engagement

Use `list_activities` and `get_user` to inspect individual wellness progress. It gives your agent the context needed to provide relevant feedback to team members. This MCP Server provides the exact hooks your agent requires. It keeps your data organized and your wellness tracking focused on real-time activity metrics.

Setup guide

Set up Betterfly 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 Betterfly tools at runtime.
3

Create your Agent

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

Run the agent

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

asyncio.run(main())
