How to Use the Instatus (Status Pages API) MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

Q: How do I connect the Instatus (Status Pages API) to my OpenAI Agents SDK project?

You initialize the server using the MCPServerStreamableHttp class and pass it to your agent constructor. This links the tools directly into your execution flow.

Q: Can my OpenAI Agents SDK agent use Instatus (Status Pages API) to automate incident reports?

Yes, your agent can call createincident directly when an anomaly is detected. It maps your internal alert data to the status page format instantly.

Automate incident response and status updates in your OpenAI Agents SDK production environment.

Perplexity

Real-time incident management

Your agent triggers `create_incident` the moment monitoring catches a dip. It handles the initial report so you don't have to context-switch during a fire. Updating the public view happens via `update_incident` based on your agent's findings. You get a clear audit trail inside your OpenAI dashboard for every change.

Dynamic status page components

Keep your status page accurate by using `update_component` to reflect current system state. Your agents pull the latest data with `list_components` before making any changes. This MCP Server ensures your status page stays in sync with real-world uptime. It removes the manual labor of toggling states during routine maintenance windows.

Metric-driven health monitoring

Pipe live system health data into your status page using `add_metric_datapoint`. Your agent aggregates and pushes these figures directly from your backend telemetry. Tracking system performance becomes automatic with `add_metric` and bulk updates. It keeps your users informed without requiring constant human intervention.

Setup guide

Set up Instatus (Status Pages API) 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 Instatus (Status Pages API) tools at runtime.
3

Create your Agent

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

Run the agent

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

asyncio.run(main())

Yes, your agent can call `create_incident` directly when an anomaly is detected. It maps your internal alert data to the status page format instantly.

The server exposes well-defined tool schemas that the agent consumes automatically. This ensures your agent only executes defined actions against your status page.

The agent handles the request failure through standard exception patterns. You should implement a retry logic in your agent to ensure incident reports still get through.

The server uses your endpoint token to manage authentication. It only touches the Instatus API and never logs your sensitive credentials in the agent traces.
