How to Use the GatherContent MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

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

Install openai-agents. Create an MCPServerStreamableHttp instance pointing to your MCP server URL. Pass it in the mcpservers array when initializing your Agent.

Q: Can the OpenAI Agents SDK read my GatherContent templates?

Yes. The agent calls gettemplateschema to understand your custom field types. It auto-discovers this MCP tool as soon as you connect the server.

Q: How does the OpenAI Agents SDK handle GatherContent workflows?

Your agent uses listworkflowstatuses to check the current state of any item. You can write guardrails that prevent the agent from modifying items that are already approved.

Q: What happens if the API connection drops?

Your agent can run verifyapiconnection to check the status. If the endpoint is unreachable, the SDK's tracing dashboard will log the failure immediately.

Map GatherContent schemas to this MCP Server

The GatherContent MCP Server exposes your exact content structure to your agent. You run `get_template_schema` to pull the field definitions. Your agent understands exactly what fields a blog post or landing page requires before drafting a single word. OpenAI's built-in guardrails shine here. If an agent tries to push a draft without required fields, the system catches it. You can wire up specialized agents—one for writing, one for editing—and pass the item ID between them while tracing the whole pipeline in your dashboard.

Write and update content items

Your agent doesn't just read data. It pushes text directly into your CMS. Use `create_content_item` to spin up a new draft in a specific folder. Once the copy is ready, the agent fires `update_content_item` to push the final text into the correct template blocks. This kills the copy-paste workflow. Writers stop moving text from Google Docs into GatherContent. The system handles the data entry, formatting, and metadata tagging in one shot.

Track workflows and project status

Agents need context to make decisions. You can map out your entire editorial calendar using `list_content_projects` and `list_project_items`. The agent checks what needs attention today. Then it checks the state of those items. By calling `list_workflow_statuses`, the agent knows if a piece is in "Draft", "Review", or "Ready to Publish". You can build a routing agent that pings the right editor based on the current workflow state.

Setup guide

Set up GatherContent 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 GatherContent tools at runtime.
3

Create your Agent

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

Run the agent

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

asyncio.run(main())
