How to Use the Estimote MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK
Directly control your Estimote beacon fleet from your OpenAI Agents SDK production environment.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Estimote MCP to OpenAI Agents SDK
Create your Vinkius account to connect Estimote 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.
Automate Estimote beacon fleet inventory
Use `list_beacon_devices` to pull real-time hardware status directly into your agent logic. This gives your system an immediate view of battery levels and current firmware versions across your entire deployment. Your agent can then cross-reference this data with `list_physical_locations` to map specific hardware to site coordinates. It’s a clean way to maintain an accurate digital twin of your physical infrastructure without manual database entries.
Dynamic Estimote configuration management
Update hardware settings programmatically using `update_beacon_settings` to adjust advertising intervals or power output. The agent queues these changes in the cloud shadow, ensuring consistency across your fleet. When you need to reorganize, `assign_tag_to_beacon` handles the heavy lifting. You can group devices by zone or campaign without ever touching the physical hardware on-site.
Environmental monitoring with Estimote
Fetch live sensor data using `get_beacon_telemetry` to track ambient light, temperature, or motion. Your agent can trigger alerts or adjust logic based on these readings, providing immediate visibility into site conditions. Combine this with `get_device_analytics` to correlate environmental factors with visitor dwell times. This turns your raw beacon data into clear, actionable insights for your retail or venue operations.
Set up Estimote 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 Estimote tools at runtime. - 3
Create your Agent
Pass the MCP to
Agent(mcp_servers=[server]). The agent receives Estimote tools as native definitions — JSON schemas resolve automatically. - 4
Run the agent
Call
Runner.run(agent, prompt)to execute. The agent invokes the appropriate Estimote 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="Estimote Agent",
instructions="You have access to Estimote tools.",
mcp_servers=[server],
)
result = await Runner.run(agent, "List recent transactions")
print(result.final_output)
