How to Use the Line-Up MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

Q: How do I handle performance issues during high-traffic onsales?

Set cacheToolsList=True in your connection parameters. This stops the client from re-fetching the tool schemas on every single request, keeping your agent fast when tickets go fast.

Secure Booking Guards with OpenAI Agents SDK

Your OpenAI Agents SDK setup needs tight guardrails when handling live inventory. This MCP server lets your agent safely call `create_ticket_reservation` to lock seats temporarily without risking double-bookings. Once the client confirms, it executes `confirm_ticket_order` to finalize the transaction. The built-in safety checks in your Python SDK ensure the agent never triggers accidental purchases or gets stuck in a loop.

Real-Time Performance and Inventory Lookups

Let your OpenAI Agents SDK agents query live schedules directly. They can run `list_event_performances` to find exact dates, then immediately check seating limits using `check_ticket_availability`. No stale database caches when querying Line-Up. By pulling raw data through this MCP integration, your OpenAI Agents SDK workflow gets accurate, up-to-the-second details on what seats are actually left.

Automated Customer History Audits

Give your specialized OpenAI Agents SDK customer service agents the power to pull booking histories. They can call `get_customer_profile` and `list_account_orders` to resolve ticket disputes instantly. The agent handles the lookup autonomously, but you keep full tracing visibility in your OpenAI dashboard. It makes checking individual order details via `get_order_details` straightforward and audit-proof.

Setup guide

Set up Line-Up 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 Line-Up tools at runtime.
3

Create your Agent

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

Run the agent

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

asyncio.run(main())

Common questions about Line-Up MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

Install the agents package and configure the MCP server parameters. Pass the Line-Up endpoint URL into your `MCPServerStreamableHttp` client, then add it to your agent's server list. The agent will auto-discover the tools immediately.

Yes, you control this at the agent definition level. While the Line-Up MCP server exposes all ten tools, you can use the SDK's native guardrails to block or allow specific functions like `confirm_ticket_order`.

Absolutely. You can have one agent check availability using `list_available_events` and then hand off the session to a booking agent to execute `create_ticket_reservation`.

Set `cacheToolsList=True` in your connection parameters. This stops the client from re-fetching the tool schemas on every single request, keeping your agent fast when tickets go fast.

Yes. All customer profiles and ticket order details are processed inside a zero-trust, ephemeral V8 isolate. Vinkius handles the underlying authentication tokens, ensuring your raw API keys are never exposed to the agent.
