How to Use the TripGo MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

Q: Can I find stops near me using TripGo and the OpenAI Agents SDK?

Yep. Just give it a GPS coordinate, and getnearbystops returns stop IDs, names, routes serving that spot, and how far away they are. It's quick and simple.

Q: Does TripGo help with international travel planning via the OpenAI Agents SDK?

Yes. getregions lists support across North America, Europe, Australia, and Asia, so you can verify coverage before building a trip plan using plantrip.

Q: How do I check if a specific route is covered by TripGo and the OpenAI Agents SDK?

You use the getrouteinfo tool. You feed it a route ID, and it tells you exactly what that line covers, so you know if your destination is reachable.

Perplexity

Plan complex multimodal routes.

The `plan_trip` tool combines bus, subway, tram, ferry, walking, and cycling into one option. It returns multiple route suggestions, showing you the total duration, transfer count, step-by-step directions, and departure/arrival times. This works even if you only give it two coordinates; your agent handles figuring out the best path across different transport types.

Track real-time vehicle movements.

Need to know when that train is actually coming? Use `get_arrivals` and `get_departures`. These tools show you route names, origins, destinations, scheduled times, *and* current delays at a specific stop ID. You can also run `get_vehicle_positions` to get a real-time feed of where all the transit vehicles are on the map.

Find and verify transit locations.

Don't know the exact stop ID? Start with `search_stops`, which finds matching stops by name or intersection. If you need to check if we even operate in your city, run `get_regions` first. Once you find a potential spot, `get_stop_details` gives you facility info—like whether there's shelter or seating—before you wait there.

Setup guide

Set up TripGo 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 TripGo tools at runtime.
3

Create your Agent

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

Run the agent

Call Runner.run(agent, prompt) to execute. The agent invokes the appropriate TripGo 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="TripGo Agent",
            instructions="You have access to TripGo tools.",
            mcp_servers=[server],
        )
        result = await Runner.run(agent, "List recent transactions")
        print(result.final_output)

asyncio.run(main())
