About Retell AI MCP Server
Connect your Retell AI account to any AI agent and take full control of your conversational voice orchestration through natural conversation. Retell AI provides a premier platform for building human-like voice agents, and this integration allows you to create agents, initiate phone or web calls, and monitor LLM configurations directly from your chat interface.
The OpenAI Agents SDK auto-discovers all 11 tools from Retell AI through native MCP integration. Build agents with built-in guardrails, tracing, and handoff patterns. chain multiple agents where one queries Retell AI, another analyzes results, and a third generates reports, all orchestrated through Vinkius.
What you can do
- Agent & Persona Orchestration — List all managed voice agents and retrieve detailed persona metadata, including creating new agents programmatically.
- Call Lifecycle Management — Initiate and monitor real-time phone or web calls and retrieve detailed call metadata including recordings and transcripts directly from the AI interface.
- LLM & Brain Control — Access and monitor your Retell LLM configurations to ensure your agents always have the correct logic and knowledge via natural language.
- Phone Number Intelligence — List available phone numbers to maintain a clear overview of your telephony infrastructure.
- Operational Monitoring — Track system responses and manage agent settings using simple AI commands to ensure your voice operations are always optimized.
The Retell AI MCP Server exposes 11 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.

Retell AI + OpenAI Agents SDK FAQ
Common questions about integrating Retell AI 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.
