How to Use the Trimble MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

Q: Can I use the OpenAI Agents SDK for calculating tolls with Trimble?

Yep. The agent calls calculatetriptolls to estimate total costs, giving you both cash and electronic fee breakdowns right in your production workflow.

Q: Does Trimble support avoiding certain roads with the MCP Server in the OpenAI Agents SDK?

Absolutely. You can run routeavoidingroads to calculate a path that explicitly bypasses specific expressways or restricted areas you don't want your truck on.

Q: Does the MCP Server support calculating routes for large vehicles with OpenAI Agents SDK?

Yes. The agent uses calculatetruckroute and can refine the path using gettruckdirections, which accounts for specific vehicle dimensions, like bridge heights or HazMat rules.

Perplexity

Advanced Commercial Routing Capabilities

Your agent uses `calculate_truck_route` to plan a truck-compliant path between multiple stops. This calculation includes distance, total time, and the routing polyline necessary for navigation. It also runs `get_truck_directions`, which considers crucial details like bridge heights, HazMat restrictions, and weight limits, ensuring your agent never suggests an impossible turn.

Comprehensive Logistics Planning

Need to know the full cost of a journey? Call `calculate_trip_tolls` to get estimates for both cash and electronic toll fees in USD. The MCP Server also tracks state boundaries using `calculate_state_mileage`, breaking down mileage by US state or province. Want to find all possible destinations first? Use `calculate_matrix_routing` to determine distances and travel times between a whole array of origins and goals.

Geocoding and Area Analysis

The MCP Server can convert raw geographic coordinates into the nearest commercial address using `reverse_geocode`. You can also search for specific locations in the database with `search_trimble_address`. Plus, if you need to find all reachable areas within a set time limit from a single point, just call `calculate_driving_isochrone`.

Setup guide

Set up Trimble MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
openai-agents package (pip install openai-agents)
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install the SDK

Run pip install openai-agents to install the OpenAI Agents SDK. The MCP integration is built-in — no extra dependencies needed.
2

Connect via SSE transport

Use MCPServerSse with your Vinkius endpoint URL. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com. The SDK auto-discovers all Trimble tools at runtime.
3

Create your Agent

Pass the MCP to Agent(mcp_servers=[server]). The agent receives Trimble tools as native definitions — JSON schemas resolve automatically.
4

Run the agent

Call Runner.run(agent, prompt) to execute. The agent invokes the appropriate Trimble tools and returns structured results. Copy the full example on the right to get started.

agent.py

import asyncio
from agents import Agent, Runner
from agents.mcp import MCPServerSse

async def main():
    async with MCPServerSse(
        url="https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    ) as server:
        agent = Agent(
            name="Trimble Agent",
            instructions="You have access to Trimble tools.",
            mcp_servers=[server],
        )
        result = await Runner.run(agent, "List recent transactions")
        print(result.final_output)

asyncio.run(main())
