How to Use the General Motors MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

Q: Can the OpenAI Agents SDK pull General Motors battery data?

Yes, use the getchargestatus tool to read current battery levels. This integrates directly into your agent's context window for real-time monitoring.

Q: Does General Motors work with the OpenAI Agents SDK cache?

Yes, setting cacheToolsList=True ensures your agent discovers the 14 available tools quickly. It keeps your initialization phase fast and responsive.

Q: How do I list vehicles for General Motors using OpenAI Agents SDK?

Call the getvehicles tool to retrieve a list of all VINs associated with your account. This is the first step before calling any specific diagnostic or control function.

Full vehicle control for OpenAI Agents SDK

Trigger physical actions like `start_vehicle` or `lock_doors` directly from your agentic workflows. By integrating this MCP Server, your agent gains the ability to execute commands with the safety of OpenAI's built-in guardrails. Every request is tracked, ensuring you know exactly when a command was sent. You won't be guessing if the door locked or the engine started, because the tool returns the status payload immediately.

Real-time diagnostic telemetry

Feed live data into your agents using `get_vehicle_diagnostics` and `get_fuel_level`. Your agent monitors the health of the vehicle fleet without needing manual checks or constant polling. Parsing diagnostic codes becomes trivial when the agent receives structured data. You can set up triggers based on `get_tire_pressure` results to alert users before a flat happens.

Precise location tracking

Retrieve exact coordinates with `get_vehicle_location` to manage fleet movement or find parked cars. This tool provides the raw GPS data your agent needs to make routing decisions. Pair this with `send_turn_by_turn` to push navigation data directly to the dashboard. Your agent handles the logistics while the driver focuses on the road.

Setup guide

Set up General Motors 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 General Motors tools at runtime.
3

Create your Agent

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

Run the agent

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

asyncio.run(main())

Common questions about General Motors MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

Use the built-in guardrails within your agent configuration to validate every tool call. You should implement a secondary check before any write action like `unlock_doors` is permitted to run.

Yes, use the `get_charge_status` tool to read current battery levels. This integrates directly into your agent's context window for real-time monitoring.

Yes, setting `cacheToolsList=True` ensures your agent discovers the 14 available tools quickly. It keeps your initialization phase fast and responsive.

Call the `get_vehicles` tool to retrieve a list of all VINs associated with your account. This is the first step before calling any specific diagnostic or control function.

We enforce strict token-based authentication for every request. Only the specific VIN requested is accessed, and your agent never sees credentials beyond the initial connection handshake.
