How to Use the Buildkite MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

Q: How do I configure the Buildkite MCP Server with OpenAI Agents SDK?

Install openai-agents and instantiate the MCPServerStreamableHttp class with your Vinkius endpoint for Buildkite to connect it to your OpenAI Agents SDK.

Q: Can my OpenAI Agents SDK system trigger a Buildkite pipeline automatically?

Yes, your OpenAI Agents SDK system can call createbuild to start a Buildkite run whenever a trigger condition is met.

Trigger Buildkite builds and manage agents safely inside your OpenAI Agents SDK production workflows.

Trigger and rebuild pipelines from OpenAI Agents SDK

When a deployment fails, your OpenAI Agents SDK agent calls `rebuild` to retry the Buildkite run. It can also kick off a new run using `create_build` based on triggers inside your OpenAI Agents SDK code. If a run goes sideways, your OpenAI Agents SDK script uses `cancel_build` to stop the Buildkite agent instantly. This prevents runaway cloud costs in your automated Buildkite testing pipeline managed by OpenAI Agents SDK.

Monitor agents and build status via OpenAI Agents SDK

Your OpenAI Agents SDK loop can check active workers by calling `list_agents` to monitor your Buildkite infrastructure. This ensures your Buildkite queue isn't backed up before your OpenAI Agents SDK pushes new code. Before triggering any Buildkite jobs, the OpenAI Agents SDK agent runs `get_access_token_info` to verify its Buildkite permissions. This keeps your Buildkite deployment pipelines safe and audited inside the OpenAI Agents SDK tracing dashboard.

Inspect runs using this Buildkite MCP Server

This Buildkite MCP Server lets your OpenAI Agents SDK agent fetch run details via `get_build` to diagnose test failures. It can also pull history using `list_pipeline_builds` to find when a bug was introduced to your Buildkite setup. Because the OpenAI Agents SDK supports strict guardrails, you can block the agent from querying `list_all_builds` across other Buildkite organizations. This keeps your corporate Buildkite data secure within your OpenAI Agents SDK environment.

Setup guide

Set up Buildkite 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 Buildkite tools at runtime.
3

Create your Agent

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

Run the agent

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

asyncio.run(main())
