Perplexity

Run metric queries inside OpenAI Agents SDK agents

Your agent runs `query_metrics` to grab raw timeseries data directly from your infrastructure. It doesn't need to guess about spikes or memory leaks because it gets the exact numbers back instantly. The OpenAI SDK handles the tool discovery so your agent knows how to pass the Unix timestamps and query strings. You get clean metric telemetry fed straight into your decision-making loops without writing custom API wrappers.

Manage active alerts using this MCP Server

This MCP Server lets your system inspect existing configurations to prevent duplicate alerts by calling `list_monitors` and `create_monitor` to audit and build custom alerts. If a service starts acting up, the agent can run `mute_monitor` during a deployment window to stop page storms. It can even check `list_slos` to see if a failing monitor is threatening your quarterly uptime commitments.

Trace incident response and search logs

The `search_logs` tool lets your agent hunt for errors and grab the exact trace IDs causing a service disruption. It can scan log lines for matching service and status codes when an alert triggers. Once it isolates the issue, the agent pulls `list_incidents` to check if a postmortem is already open. This keeps your on-call engineers in the loop without forcing them to dig through the web UI during an outage.

Setup guide

Set up Datadog Alternative 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 Datadog Alternative tools at runtime.
3

Create your Agent

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

Run the agent

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

asyncio.run(main())

Common questions about Datadog Alternative MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

You register the server URL in your Python code using the streamable HTTP class. The SDK auto-discovers the tools so your agents can query metrics and logs right away.

Yes, you control tool access through the agent constructor by passing specific tool lists. This prevents agents from muting critical alerts or creating unauthorized monitors.

Yes, every tool call like searching logs or querying metrics shows up in your OpenAI developer dashboard. You can trace exactly what data the agent pulled before it made a decision.

Vinkius manages the API keys securely in its sandbox. Your agent code only needs a single endpoint token to execute any monitoring tool.

All queried log lines and metric timeseries pass through an ephemeral V8 isolate. No monitoring data is stored on Vinkius servers after the tool execution completes.
