Bring Task Management
to OpenAI Agents SDK
Learn how to connect BasicOps to OpenAI Agents SDK and start using 12 AI agent tools in minutes. Fully managed, enterprise secure, and ready to use without writing a single line of code.
What is the BasicOps MCP Server?
Connect your BasicOps account to any AI agent and take full control of your project management and team collaboration workflows through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Project & Section Orchestration — List and manage your entire project hierarchy programmatically, including creating new project sections (phases) in real-time
- Task Lifecycle Management — Programmatically create and update tasks, monitoring status transitions, due dates, and high-fidelity descriptions directly through your agent
- Team Coordination Intelligence — Access complete directories of team members and retrieve communication history within tasks to maintain perfectly coordinated context
- Workflow Automation — Programmatically manage project sections to organize your team's workflow into high-fidelity sprints or operational phases
- Workspace Visibility — Access high-fidelity metadata for your workspace and monitor active webhooks directly through your agent for instant operational reporting
How it works
1. Subscribe to this server
2. Retrieve your Personal Access Token from your BasicOps settings (Settings > API)
3. Start managing your team's productivity from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client
No more manual toggling between project tabs or missing task deadlines. Your AI acts as your dedicated project coordinator and task architect.
Who is this for?
- Project Managers — instantly retrieve project summaries and update task statuses using natural language commands
- Team Leads — monitor team bandwidth and manage project sections without leaving your creative workspace
- Operations Leads — automate the oversight of workspace metadata and task distribution through simple AI queries

Why OpenAI Agents SDK?
The OpenAI Agents SDK auto-discovers all 12 tools from BasicOps through native MCP integration. Build agents with built-in guardrails, tracing, and handoff patterns. chain multiple agents where one queries BasicOps, another analyzes results, and a third generates reports, all orchestrated through Vinkius.

BasicOps in OpenAI Agents SDK
BasicOps and 3,400+ other MCP servers. One platform. One governance layer.
Teams that connect BasicOps to OpenAI Agents SDK through Vinkius don't need to source, host, or maintain individual MCP servers. Every tool call runs inside a hardened runtime with credential isolation, DLP, and a signed audit chain.

Why teams choose Vinkius for BasicOps in OpenAI Agents SDK
The BasicOps MCP Server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS — a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts. All 12 tools execute in hardened sandboxes optimized for native MCP execution.
Your AI agents in OpenAI Agents SDK only access the data you authorize, with DLP that blocks sensitive information from ever reaching the model, kill switch for instant shutdown, and up to 60% token savings. Enterprise-grade infrastructure, zero maintenance.

How Vinkius secures
BasicOps for OpenAI Agents SDK
Every tool call from OpenAI Agents SDK to the BasicOps MCP Server is protected by DLP redaction, cryptographic audit chains, V8 sandbox isolation, kill switch, and financial circuit breakers.
Frequently asked questions
How do I find my BasicOps Personal Access Token?
Log in to your account, navigate to Settings > API, and generate a new Personal Access Token for your integration.
What is a Project Section via AI?
Sections allow your agent to group related tasks into specific phases, sprints, or categories within a larger project programmatically.
How do I list team members programmatically?
Use the list_users tool to retrieve your complete organizational directory including high-fidelity names and email addresses.
How does the OpenAI Agents SDK connect to MCP?
Use MCPServerSse(url=...) to create a server connection. The SDK auto-discovers all tools and makes them available to your agent with full type information.
Can I use multiple MCP servers in one agent?
Yes. Pass a list of MCPServerSse instances to the agent constructor. The agent can use tools from all connected servers within a single run.
Does the SDK support streaming responses?
Yes. The SDK supports SSE and Streamable HTTP transports, both of which work natively with Vinkius.
