Frequently asked questions
Does the AI agent process payments directly?
No, the AI agent retrieves and manages data from your Donately account, it does not act as a payment gateway itself.
Can the AI agent create new fundraising campaigns?
Currently, the agent can list and retrieve information about existing campaigns, but campaign creation should be done in the Donately dashboard.
Is donor data safe with the AI agent?
Yes, the agent only accesses the data necessary to answer your prompts and does not store personal donor information permanently.
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.
