How to Use the HireVue MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

Q: Can OpenAI Agents SDK use HireVue to filter candidates?

Yes. Your agent uses listpositions to find roles and getcandidate to evaluate profiles. It compares these data points to decide which candidates proceed to the next stage.

Automate candidate tracking in OpenAI Agents SDK

Stop manual data entry for new applicants. Your agent uses `create_candidate` to build profiles the moment a resume hits your system. It then runs `update_candidate` to keep status fields current, ensuring your pipeline metrics stay accurate without human intervention.

Direct interview scheduling for OpenAI Agents SDK

Your agent handles the logistics of booking talent. By calling `create_interview`, it generates invites based on real-time availability fetched via `list_positions`. If plans change, the agent invokes `cancel_interview` to clear the slot instantly. This keeps your schedule clean and responsive to candidate needs.

Real-time HireVue MCP Server data access

Your agent needs precise intel to make hiring decisions. It calls `get_candidate` and `get_position` to pull the exact requirements for any open role. This MCP Server provides the raw context your agent needs to match the right person to the right job without guessing.

Setup guide

Set up HireVue 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 HireVue tools at runtime.
3

Create your Agent

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

Run the agent

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

asyncio.run(main())

Common questions about HireVue MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

You instantiate the server using the streamable HTTP transport class provided by the SDK. Point the client to your Vinkius endpoint and pass the server instance directly to your agent constructor.

Yes. Your agent uses `list_positions` to find roles and `get_candidate` to evaluate profiles. It compares these data points to decide which candidates proceed to the next stage.

Absolutely. Because you are using the native SDK, every tool call is logged through your standard dashboard. You get full visibility into how your agent interacts with candidate records.

You should define strict guardrails in your agent logic. Only allow the agent to call `update_candidate` after it has verified the data against your internal database.

The server only transmits the specific candidate name and application status fields necessary for the request. All data is ephemeral and encrypted in transit by the Vinkius platform.
