Frequently asked questions
Can I publish a new post directly from the chat?
Yes! Use the create_article tool by providing a title and the markdown content. You can also set the published status to true or false for drafts.
How do I see my own drafts and published posts?
You can use the list_my_articles tool. It allows you to filter by type, such as 'all', 'published', or 'unpublished' (drafts).
Can I look up another user's profile information?
Yes, use the get_user tool with either their unique User ID or their username to retrieve their public profile details.
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.
