How to Use the Copernicus Data Space MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK
Build production-grade OpenAI Agents SDK systems that fetch, filter, and inspect Sentinel satellite data without manual scripting.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Copernicus Data Space MCP to OpenAI Agents SDK
Create your Vinkius account to connect Copernicus Data Space to OpenAI Agents SDK and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Query Sentinel databases using OpenAI Agents SDK
`search_products` queries Sentinel-1, Sentinel-2, and Sentinel-3 collections by date range and WKT polygon geometries. Your agent gets structured metadata including footprints, file sizes, and publication dates directly in its context. If you need to target a specific region, `search_by_bbox` handles geographic bounding boxes while `search_by_name` isolates tiles like T33UUP. This setup lets your system discover new earth observation datasets on the fly. No manual searching required.
Inspect product geometries and file structures
`get_product` pulls metadata for a satellite product by its UUID, including sensing time, footprint geometry, and file size. Your agent runs this check to verify data quality before initiating heavy downloads. It keeps your pipeline clean. For granular file checks, the agent calls `list_product_nodes` to map out the directory hierarchy of measurement data, metadata XMLs, and quicklook images. This step prevents downloading unwanted auxiliary files. You won't waste bandwidth on your production servers.
Generate temporary download links on demand
`get_product_download_url` generates an authenticated download link and a Bearer token valid for sixty minutes to retrieve raw Sentinel data. Your agent hands this URL off to downstream processing pipelines. It's safe and direct. If you need to verify credentials, `check_copernicus_status` confirms your access works. This MCP Server check prevents silent pipeline failures.
Set up Copernicus Data Space MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK
Prerequisites
- Python 3.10+ installed
-
openai-agentspackage (pip install openai-agents) - Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token
- 1
Install the SDK
Run
pip install openai-agentsto install the OpenAI Agents SDK. The MCP integration is built-in — no extra dependencies needed. - 2
Connect via SSE transport
Use
MCPServerSsewith your Vinkius endpoint URL. Replace[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]with your token from cloud.vinkius.com. The SDK auto-discovers all Copernicus Data Space tools at runtime. - 3
Create your Agent
Pass the MCP to
Agent(mcp_servers=[server]). The agent receives Copernicus Data Space tools as native definitions — JSON schemas resolve automatically. - 4
Run the agent
Call
Runner.run(agent, prompt)to execute. The agent invokes the appropriate Copernicus Data Space tools and returns structured results. Copy the full example on the right to get started.
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="Copernicus Data Space Agent",
instructions="You have access to Copernicus Data Space tools.",
mcp_servers=[server],
)
result = await Runner.run(agent, "List recent transactions")
print(result.final_output)
