How to Use the Whereby MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

Q: What happens if I need to delete a recording via Whereby with the OpenAI Agents SDK?

The agent invokes deletecloudrecording. Since this tool is irreversible, your system confirms the action before proceeding. It handles the permanent deletion of the cloud file.

Q: Whereby, when using the OpenAI Agents SDK, can I find out if a meeting room was created successfully?

Yes. The agent runs listactivemeetings to get an immediate list of all rooms, or it uses getmeetingdetails for specific validation on a known room name.

Q: Does the OpenAI Agents SDK support updating themes after initial setup?

Absolutely. You can call updateroomtheme, providing both the required room name and the new hex color code, overriding the original branding settings.

Managing Live Video Sessions

Need to know if a call is running? Your agent calls `list_active_meetings` to see all current or pending rooms. If you need specific details, it uses `get_meeting_details`. The agent also handles setup by calling `create_meeting_room`, allowing you to specify an end date and whether the room needs group mode.

Customizing Branding for OpenAI Agents SDK

If default colors aren't cutting it, your agent adjusts the look. It can fetch existing styles using `get_room_theme` or apply a fresh look with `update_room_theme`, passing in a hex color code. For full control, running `reset_room_theme` reverts the room to standard Whereby branding.

Handling Cloud Media Assets

Your agent controls what happens to recordings and rooms after the fact. It can list all stored media via `list_cloud_recordings`, getting a clear view of everything in the account. When done, it uses `delete_recording_details` or `delete_meeting_room` to permanently clean up assets. Remember, these actions are irreversible.

Setup guide

Set up Whereby 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 Whereby tools at runtime.
3

Create your Agent

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

Run the agent

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

asyncio.run(main())
