How to Use the Cisco Meraki MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

Q: How do I connect Cisco Meraki to the OpenAI Agents SDK?

Pass your Vinkius endpoint URL to MCPServerStreamableHttp. Drop that server object into your Agent constructor. The SDK discovers the Meraki tools immediately.

Q: Can an OpenAI Agents SDK agent search for specific Cisco Meraki organizations?

Yes. The agent calls searchorganizations with a text string. It parses the returned list and matches the exact organization ID for subsequent network queries.

Q: Does the Cisco Meraki MCP Server cache API responses for OpenAI agents?

Set cacheToolsList=True in your server parameters to speed up initialization. The actual Meraki data remains real-time to ensure your agent sees current device statuses.

Q: What happens if a Cisco Meraki appliance drops offline during an OpenAI Agents SDK run?

Your agent pulls the failure state via getappliancesettings. You can configure guardrails to halt further execution or hand the error off to an alerting agent.

Perplexity

Discover Meraki MCP Server tools instantly

OpenAI Agents SDK finds your available Cisco Meraki network management endpoints the moment you pass the Vinkius URL to `MCPServerStreamableHttp`. You don't write boilerplate wrappers to pull data. The agent knows exactly how to query your cloud infrastructure. Drop `get_device_statuses` into your safety constraints. The agent checks hardware health across the organization before executing any restart commands. Tracing catches every API call in the OpenAI dashboard.

Map networks with production guardrails

Mapping your Cisco Meraki network topology requires strict boundaries. You set handoff rules where a read-only agent runs `list_networks` and `list_devices`, passing the raw topology to an escalation agent. If a specialized agent needs specific hardware details, it fires `get_device`. Your guardrails validate the exact parameters before the request hits the MCP endpoint. Nothing executes blindly.

Audit wireless clients autonomously

Tracking rogue devices on your Meraki network takes constant polling. A scheduled agent cycle calls `list_clients` against specific network IDs, checking MAC addresses against your known inventory. When the agent spots an unknown connection, it grabs the SSID configuration via `list_wireless_ssids`. You get a complete trace of the investigation without writing a single manual API request.

Setup guide

Set up Cisco Meraki 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 Cisco Meraki tools at runtime.
3

Create your Agent

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

Run the agent

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

asyncio.run(main())
