About Parseur MCP Server
Bring Parseur Document Extraction arrays directly into your AI workflows. By explicitly mapping into powerful OCR and templating engines, your agent can push unstructured PDFs or bulk emails into remote routing limits, parsing exact text fields securely. Extract fields, examine documents, list defined parse-templates, and retry pipelines without manual intervention.
The OpenAI Agents SDK auto-discovers all 10 tools from Parseur through native MCP integration. Build agents with built-in guardrails, tracing, and handoff patterns. chain multiple agents where one queries Parseur, another analyzes results, and a third generates reports, all orchestrated through Vinkius.
What you can do
- Mailboxes & Templates — Examine specifically bound mailboxes tracking which explicit templates dictate data extraction limits mapped natively
- Document Navigation — Extract properties showing precisely which unstructured strings were identified inside uploaded payloads checking
status: parsedcorrectly - Payload Uploading — Instruct the node limits mapping
upload_documentgenerating raw payloads routing straight into the engine for OCR logic - Job Management — Discover disconnected states mitigating failed validations by pushing
retry_documentinstantly forcing physical pipeline resets
The Parseur MCP Server exposes 10 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to OpenAI Agents SDK in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

Why Use OpenAI Agents SDK with the Parseur MCP Server
OpenAI Agents SDK provides unique advantages when paired with Parseur 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
Parseur + OpenAI Agents SDK Use Cases
Practical scenarios where OpenAI Agents SDK combined with the Parseur MCP Server delivers measurable value.
Automated workflows: build agents that query Parseur, process the data, and trigger follow-up actions autonomously
Multi-agent orchestration: create specialist agents. one queries Parseur, another analyzes results, a third generates reports
Data enrichment pipelines: stream data through Parseur tools and transform it with OpenAI models in a single async loop
Customer support bots: agents query Parseur to resolve tickets, look up records, and update statuses without human intervention
Parseur MCP Tools for OpenAI Agents SDK (10)
These 10 tools become available when you connect Parseur to OpenAI Agents SDK via MCP:
create_mailbox
The type determines the parsing engine (e.g., "pdf", "email", "attachment"). Once created, you can configure templates and forward documents to the mailbox for automatic extraction. Create a new Parseur mailbox for document parsing
create_template
Pass the template name and a JSON config string defining field mappings. Parseur will use this template to extract structured data from matching documents. Create a new extraction template for a Parseur mailbox
get_document_data
Fields depend on the template configuration (e.g., invoice_number, total_amount, line_items). Only works for documents with status "processed". Retrieve the fully extracted JSON data from a parsed document
get_document_details
Does not include the parsed data itself — use get_document_data for that. Get metadata of a single parsed document
get_mailbox
Use this to verify mailbox setup before sending documents. Get detailed configuration of a specific Parseur mailbox
list_documents
Each entry includes document ID, status (processed, failed, pending), and metadata like sender and received date. List all parsed documents inside a Parseur mailbox
list_mailboxes
Each mailbox represents a parsing pipeline for a specific document type (invoices, receipts, emails). Use the returned mailbox IDs for subsequent operations like listing documents or uploading files. List all Parseur parsing mailboxes
list_templates
Templates define the extraction rules (field names, locations, regex patterns) used to pull structured data from incoming documents. List available extraction templates for a Parseur mailbox
retry_document
Useful after fixing template rules or when the original parse failed due to a transient error. The document will be matched against the latest template rules. Retry parsing a failed or errored Parseur document
upload_document
eml) to the specified mailbox for automatic parsing. The document enters the processing queue and will be parsed according to the mailbox template. Returns the new document ID for tracking. Upload a document URL to a Parseur mailbox for parsing
Example Prompts for Parseur in OpenAI Agents SDK
Ready-to-use prompts you can give your OpenAI Agents SDK agent to start working with Parseur immediately.
"Check my Parseur mailboxes to find the specific bounding IDs."
"Get the data schema parsed tightly inside document doc_987."
"Upload this snippet of parsed text directly into Mailbox xyz12 for OCR processing."

Parseur + OpenAI Agents SDK FAQ
Common questions about integrating Parseur MCP Server with OpenAI Agents SDK.
How does the OpenAI Agents SDK connect to MCP?
MCPServerSse(url=...) to create a server connection. The SDK auto-discovers all tools and makes them available to your agent with full type information.Can I use multiple MCP servers in one agent?
MCPServerSse instances to the agent constructor. The agent can use tools from all connected servers within a single run.Does the SDK support streaming responses?
