How to Use the Mainstay (AdmitHub) MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK
Bring your OpenAI Agents SDK projects to life with real-time student engagement data from Mainstay (AdmitHub).
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Mainstay (AdmitHub) MCP to OpenAI Agents SDK
Create your Vinkius account to connect Mainstay (AdmitHub) to OpenAI Agents SDK and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Automate student outreach tracking
Your agent pulls real-time engagement data directly from your campaigns. It uses `list_campaigns` to identify active initiatives and `list_messages` to audit communication history. This keeps your agent informed on what messages were sent and when. It ensures your production system tracks student interactions without manual oversight.
Retrieve granular student profiles
Get deep visibility into specific student cohorts by querying their records. The agent calls `get_contact_details` to pull relevant metadata for targeted follow-ups. This workflow allows your agent to personalize responses based on the individual student's history. It turns raw database records into actionable context for your agent's decision logic.
Dynamic metadata mapping
Stop guessing what student data is available in your system. Your agent uses `list_custom_fields` to discover exactly what metadata categories you have defined. Once the agent knows the field structure, it can pull accurate information using `list_contacts`. This ensures your agent always requests the correct variables during its execution cycle.

Pass the MCP to
Agent(mcp_servers=[server]). The agent receives Mainstay (AdmitHub) tools as native definitions — JSON schemas resolve automatically. - 4
Run the agent
Call
Runner.run(agent, prompt)to execute. The agent invokes the appropriate Mainstay (AdmitHub) tools and returns structured results. Copy the full example on the right to get started.
import asyncio
from agents import Agent, Runner
from agents.mcp import MCPServerSse
async def main():
async with MCPServerSse(
