How to Use the Bureau24 MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

Q: Can my OpenAI Agents SDK setup update my Bureau24 secretary instructions?

You can use listinstructions within the OpenAI Agents SDK to read the active Bureau24 instructions, but updates must be handled through your Bureau24 portal. Your OpenAI Agents SDK agent can read these instructions to decide how to route calls or update your status.

Control virtual receptionists via OpenAI Agents SDK

The Bureau24 MCP Server connects your OpenAI Agents SDK client directly to your live virtual receptionist call logs. Plug this server into your OpenAI Agents SDK definition to read Bureau24 call histories with `list_calls` and fetch specific details via `get_call` safely. The OpenAI Agents SDK handles Bureau24 tool discovery out of the box, meaning your autonomous agents can instantly inspect messages using `list_messages` and update your availability on the fly. You get clean Bureau24 trace logs in your OpenAI dashboard for every single receptionist interaction.

Safe status updates with built-in guardrails

The `update_secretary_status` tool lets you set up OpenAI Agents SDK validation layers around your active Bureau24 availability. Production OpenAI Agents SDK deployments require strict boundaries before an agent changes how Bureau24 secretaries route your incoming business calls. By querying `get_secretary_status` first, your OpenAI Agents SDK agent checks your current Bureau24 state before committing any updates. If the validation check fails, the OpenAI Agents SDK blocks the Bureau24 call and flags the error in your tracing dashboard.

Automated address book syncing

The `create_contact` tool allows your OpenAI Agents SDK agent to push names and numbers straight into your Bureau24 address book without human intervention. When a new lead calls your Bureau24 line, your OpenAI Agents SDK system can immediately add them to your records. You can also pull down the entire list of current Bureau24 contacts using `list_contacts` to cross-reference incoming caller IDs in the OpenAI Agents SDK. This keeps your Bureau24 records clean and ensures your virtual secretary always has the correct caller context inside your OpenAI Agents SDK pipeline.

Setup guide

Set up Bureau24 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 Bureau24 tools at runtime.
3

Create your Agent

Pass the MCP to Agent(mcp_servers=[server]). The agent receives Bureau24 tools as native definitions — JSON schemas resolve automatically.
4

Run the agent

Call Runner.run(agent, prompt) to execute. The agent invokes the appropriate Bureau24 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="Bureau24 Agent",
            instructions="You have access to Bureau24 tools.",
            mcp_servers=[server],
        )
        result = await Runner.run(agent, "List recent transactions")
        print(result.final_output)

asyncio.run(main())

Common questions about Bureau24 MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

Install the OpenAI Agents SDK and pass the Vinkius HTTP endpoint for Bureau24 to the `MCPServerStreamableHttp` constructor. Wrap this Bureau24 connection in your async context manager and pass it directly to your OpenAI Agents SDK agent.

Yes, you can restrict tool exposure at the OpenAI Agents SDK definition level. If you only want your agent to read Bureau24 messages, expose `list_messages` and `get_message` while omitting the status update tools.

The MCP Server relies on standard Python async handling to manage Bureau24 requests. If Bureau24 returns a rate limit response, your OpenAI Agents SDK agent can catch the exception or retry based on your custom guardrail logic.

You can use `list_instructions` within the OpenAI Agents SDK to read the active Bureau24 instructions, but updates must be handled through your Bureau24 portal. Your OpenAI Agents SDK agent can read these instructions to decide how to route calls or update your status.

Your Bureau24 call logs, messages, and contact details are routed through Vinkius's zero-trust sandboxed environment before reaching the OpenAI Agents SDK. No Bureau24 data is stored on our servers, and all transport between your OpenAI Agents SDK and Bureau24 is fully encrypted.
