How to Use the Ideogram (AI Image Generation) MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

Q: Can an agent use Ideogram (AI Image Generation) to modify existing images in OpenAI Agents SDK?

Yes, your agent uses tools like edit and remix to transform existing files. The OpenAI Agents SDK passes the image source and prompt parameters directly to the MCP Server for processing.

Q: How does the Ideogram (AI Image Generation) MCP Server handle transparent assets in OpenAI Agents SDK?

The server exposes the generatetransparent tool, which returns a PNG containing a transparent alpha channel. Your OpenAI Agents SDK agent receives this URL directly, allowing it to pass the asset to downstream tools or save it.

Q: Does this MCP server support upscaling through the OpenAI Agents SDK?

Yes, the server includes the upscale tool to increase image resolution and detail. Your agent can call this tool automatically after a successful generatev3 run to ensure high-resolution outputs.

Perplexity

Generate text-heavy images via OpenAI Agents SDK

The `generate_v3` tool renders clean, readable text on posters or branded graphics without messy visual artifacts. This tool lets your Python script pass raw prompts and aspect ratios directly to the V3 engine for high-fidelity rendering. The OpenAI Agents SDK handles the execution loop automatically, meaning your agent checks the generation status and retrieves the final image URL without manual polling. You don't have to write custom check loops; the agent handles it.

Run secure image editing loops with built-in guardrails

The `edit_v3` tool modifies specific image regions based on natural language instructions. Because the OpenAI Agents SDK validates actions before they execute, you can set strict rules to prevent the agent from running unauthorized edits or wasting your API credits. If a user wants a face swap or a localized fix, the agent invokes `edit` with a precise mask. The SDK logs the entire tracing path to your OpenAI dashboard so you can audit every single pixel modification.

Isolate design assets with transparent background generation

The `generate_transparent` tool outputs clean PNGs with an alpha channel directly into your application workflow. This MCP Server integration ensures your agent can strip out backgrounds for stickers or logos without requiring external editing libraries. When you need to fit an asset into a new layout, the agent uses `replace_background` or `reframe` to adjust the canvas. The OpenAI Agents SDK manages these multi-step image transformations sequentially, ensuring each tool output feeds correctly into the next asset pipeline step.

Setup guide

Set up Ideogram (AI Image Generation) 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 Ideogram (AI Image Generation) tools at runtime.
3

Create your Agent

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

Run the agent

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

asyncio.run(main())
