Frequently asked questions
How do I find my Crisp API credentials?
Go to your Crisp dashboard, navigate to the Marketplace, create a new plugin, and you will find your Plugin ID and Plugin Key.
What is the Website ID?
The Website ID is a unique UUID found in your Settings > Website Settings section in Crisp.
Can I retrieve messages from past sessions?
Yes! The get_messages tool allows the agent to retrieve the complete transcript for any session ID in your history.
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.
