Calculates Physical Units via MCP Server

Need to convert weights, lengths, or temperatures? The Universal Unit Converter handles it. You just pass the units and values; the agent returns the exact result without any rounding issues. It supports everything from `convert_weight` (kilograms to pounds) to `convert_length` (miles to meters). This keeps your production pipeline clean because you don't have to build that logic yourself.

Handles Digital Storage Math

When dealing with file sizes, the agent uses `convert_digital_storage`. It correctly handles binary prefixes like KB and MB, which is crucial for accurate data handling. This tool lets your AI client process storage unit changes deterministically. You never worry about whether it's base-10 or base-2 math; the MCP Server gets it right.

Temperature and Time Conversions

The server supports `convert_temperature`, letting your agent switch between Celsius, Fahrenheit, and Kelvin instantly. It's a reliable way to keep physical measurements consistent across different systems. If you need to convert weights or lengths, the other tools are ready too—`convert_weight` and `convert_length`. This makes the Universal Unit Converter a solid utility for complex agent actions.

Setup guide

Set up Universal Unit Converter 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 Universal Unit Converter tools at runtime.
3

Create your Agent

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

Run the agent

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

asyncio.run(main())

Common questions about Universal Unit Converter MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

It exposes four tools that your agents auto-discover. You treat it like any other function call—just tell the agent what conversion you need (e.g., 'convert weight from kg to lb'). The MCP Server handles the math, and your agent gets a clean JSON response.

Absolutely. Because it's deterministic, you can trust the output of tools like `convert_digital_storage` or `convert_length`. The result is an exact physical conversion that your agent then uses in subsequent steps.

Yes. Since Vinkius manages the MCP Server, connections are zero-trust and ephemeral. The server only handles the math—it doesn't store or modify any of your data during a conversion.

The `convert_weight` tool covers standard metric and imperial measures. You can convert between kilograms, grams, pounds, and ounces. It's designed to give you accurate results every time.

The server handles numeric data representing physical measurements (weight, length, temperature) and binary storage values. You're dealing with numbers—it's all about making sure those units match up.
