Stanford bioRxiv + OpenAI Agents SDK FAQ

Common questions about integrating Stanford bioRxiv MCP Server with OpenAI Agents SDK.

How does the OpenAI Agents SDK connect to MCP?

Use 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?

Yes. Pass a list of 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?

Yes. The SDK supports SSE and Streamable HTTP transports, both of which work natively with Vinkius.
