Manage your store via OpenAI Agents SDK

Your agent fetches live data directly from your shop using `get_order` and `get_sku`. It parses the response immediately, allowing you to update inventory or check shipment status without manual code. This MCP Server provides the raw data your agent needs to make decisions. Because the tools are auto-discovered, your script handles the API handshake while you focus on the business logic.

Automate customer support with live data

Use `search_orders_by_email` to pull up specific customer history inside your agent workflow. You'll stop digging through dashboards and let the code handle the lookup. Your agent uses `list_shipments` to provide accurate tracking updates. It saves time by surfacing the exact order details before you even finish your sentence.

Calculate order performance metrics

Run `get_order_stats` to generate quick insights into your current sales volume. The agent processes the numbers and provides a summary without exporting CSV files. Data retrieval happens in real-time. You'll keep your internal dashboards updated by triggering these requests through your existing agent pipeline.

Setup guide

Set up Commerce Layer 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 Commerce Layer tools at runtime.
3

Create your Agent

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

Run the agent

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

asyncio.run(main())
