Frequently asked questions
Can I check a specific student's grades for a course?
Yes. Use the get_user_grades tool by providing the course_id and the student's username. The agent will return the grading breakdown for that specific user.
Is it possible to enroll a user in a course via the AI?
Absolutely. The enroll_in_course tool allows you to register the authenticated user into any course by specifying its unique course_id.
Can I update user profile information like names or emails?
Yes, the update_user_profile tool enables you to modify the name or email associated with a specific username in your Open edX instance.
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.
