How to Use the VTEX Orders MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

Q: How does the OpenAI Agents SDK handle searching for VTEX Orders?

You use the searchorders tool to filter orders by status or paginate results. Because it's built into the MCP Server, your agent can treat this search like any other function call.

Q: Can I cancel an order and get tracking info using OpenAI Agents SDK?

Yes. Your agent first executes cancelorder to stop the process. Then, it can use gettrackinginfo if that data is still relevant for auditing purposes.

Q: Does this MCP Server support getting full details for VTEX Orders with OpenAI Agents SDK?

Absolutely. Use getorder to get all fields for a specific order ID. This is critical when you need multiple pieces of data (like customer name and payment status) in one go.

Handling Order Status Updates via MCP Server

Use the `update_order_status` tool to change an order's lifecycle status directly on VTEX. The agent validates this action using OpenAI Agents SDK guardrails before sending the update. This prevents accidental state changes. If an operation fails or doesn't match expected parameters, your AI client stops and reports the error immediately.

Retrieving Specific Order Details for OpenAI Agents SDK

Need deep info on one order? Just call `get_order` with the specific ID. The agent pulls all necessary details from VTEX. It's perfect for specialized agents that need to act only when they have confirmed, complete data—not just a partial record.

Managing Shipping and Invoicing via MCP Server

`register_invoice` handles tax invoicing and tracking number pairing. You send the agent the required details, and it executes both steps against VTEX. Don't forget `get_tracking_info`. This tool lets your AI client confirm exactly where a package is without needing manual lookups.

Setup guide

Set up VTEX Orders 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 VTEX Orders tools at runtime.
3

Create your Agent

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

Run the agent

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

asyncio.run(main())
