Frequently asked questions
Can I see failing services across all my hosts?
Yes! Use the list_all_monitored_services tool. The agent will return a comprehensive list of services, and you can ask it to filter for those in CRITICAL or WARNING states.
How do I apply changes I made in WATO through the agent?
Use the activate_checkmk_changes tool. Your agent will trigger the activation process in Checkmk, pushing all pending configurations to the monitoring core.
Where do I find my Checkmk Automation Secret?
Log in to your Checkmk site, go to 'Setup' -> 'Users', and edit your automation user. You will see the 'Automation secret' field there.
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.
