About LiveKit MCP Server
Connect your LiveKit infrastructure to any AI agent to orchestrate real-time communication environments through natural language. This server provides comprehensive control over WebRTC sessions, participant permissions, and media recording.
The OpenAI Agents SDK auto-discovers all 41 tools from LiveKit through native MCP integration. Build agents with built-in guardrails, tracing, and handoff patterns. chain multiple agents where one queries LiveKit, another analyzes results, and a third generates reports, all orchestrated through Vinkius.
What you can do
- Room Lifecycle — Create, list, and delete rooms with custom timeouts, participant limits, and metadata.
- Participant Control — List active participants, retrieve detailed info, or remove users from a session.
- Media Management — Remotely mute or unmute specific tracks (audio/video) for any participant.
- Real-time Data — Send data packets (Base64 encoded) to specific participants or entire rooms for custom signaling.
- Recording & Egress — Start room-wide recordings using web layouts or record specific web pages via the Egress API.
- Metadata & Permissions — Update room-wide metadata or modify individual participant permissions and subscriptions on the fly.
The LiveKit MCP Server exposes 41 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to OpenAI Agents SDK in under two minutes — credentials fully managed, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

Why Use OpenAI Agents SDK with the LiveKit MCP Server
OpenAI Agents SDK provides unique advantages when paired with LiveKit through the Model Context Protocol.
Native MCP integration via `MCPServerSse`, pass the URL and the SDK auto-discovers all tools with full type safety
Built-in guardrails, tracing, and handoff patterns let you build production-grade agents without reinventing safety infrastructure
Lightweight and composable: chain multiple agents and MCP servers in a single pipeline with minimal boilerplate
First-party OpenAI support ensures optimal compatibility with GPT models for tool calling and structured output
LiveKit + OpenAI Agents SDK Use Cases
Practical scenarios where OpenAI Agents SDK combined with the LiveKit MCP Server delivers measurable value.
Automated workflows: build agents that query LiveKit, process the data, and trigger follow-up actions autonomously
Multi-agent orchestration: create specialist agents. one queries LiveKit, another analyzes results, a third generates reports
Data enrichment pipelines: stream data through LiveKit tools and transform it with OpenAI models in a single async loop
Customer support bots: agents query LiveKit to resolve tickets, look up records, and update statuses without human intervention
Example Prompts for LiveKit in OpenAI Agents SDK
Ready-to-use prompts you can give your OpenAI Agents SDK agent to start working with LiveKit immediately.
"List all currently active rooms in my LiveKit instance."
"Create a new room called 'Strategy-Meeting' with a max of 10 participants."
"Mute the audio track for participant 'user_99' in the 'Main-Lobby' room."
