Manage Customer Data

Pull specific customer records using `get_zid_customer`. If you need a list, simply run `list_zid_customers` to grab all shop clients. This gives your agent full visibility into who shops on the platform. Your AI client can use these functions to validate user identities or pull contact details for follow-up communications.

Handle Inventory Checks

Check stock levels and product availability with `list_zid_inventories`. This is critical for any e-commerce agent. You don't want the agent promising something that doesn't exist. The agent can also fetch details on specific items using `get_zid_product`, giving it precise knowledge of pricing, descriptions, and stock counts.

Track Orders and Shops

Get a complete picture of sales history by listing all store orders via `list_zid_orders`. Need to check one specific purchase? Use `get_zid_order` for quick access. Your agent can also look up the shop's profile using `get_zid_shop_profile`, confirming operational details before taking action.

Setup guide

Set up Zid 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 Zid tools at runtime.
3

Create your Agent

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

Run the agent

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

asyncio.run(main())
