Bring Meeting Transcription
to OpenAI Agents SDK
Learn how to connect Fireflies.ai to OpenAI Agents SDK and start using 12 AI agent tools in minutes. Fully managed, enterprise secure, and ready to use without writing a single line of code.
What is the Fireflies.ai MCP Server?
Connect your Fireflies.ai account to any AI agent and take full control of your meeting documentation and conversational knowledge retrieval through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Meeting Orchestration — List and manage meeting transcripts programmatically, including retrieving AI summaries, action items, and complete text logs
- Live Transcription — Programmatically invite the Fireflies bot to ongoing Zoom, Google Meet, or Teams calls for real-time recording and documentation
- Transcript Intelligence — Use 'AskFred' to ask complex natural language questions about specific meeting contents and retrieve instant, high-fidelity answers
- Asset Management — Upload public audio URLs for automated transcription and manage meeting soundbites to preserve critical conversation clips
- Organizational Visibility — Retrieve team member directories and account metadata to coordinate meeting knowledge across your entire workspace
How it works
1. Subscribe to this server
2. Retrieve your API Key from your Fireflies.ai settings (Settings > API)
3. Start managing your meeting intelligence from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client
No more manual note-taking or scrubbing through hours of recordings to find a decision. Your AI acts as your dedicated meeting analyst and knowledge coordinator.
Who is this for?
- Product Managers — instantly retrieve action items and summaries from user research calls using natural language
- Sales Teams — monitor customer sentiment and identify key pain points from recent demos without leaving your workspace
- Operations Leads — automate the documentation of team syncs and manage meeting access across the organization

Why teams choose Vinkius for Fireflies.ai in OpenAI Agents SDK
The Fireflies.ai MCP Server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS — a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts. All 12 tools execute in hardened sandboxes optimized for native MCP execution.
Your AI agents in OpenAI Agents SDK only access the data you authorize, with DLP that blocks sensitive information from ever reaching the model, kill switch for instant shutdown, and up to 60% token savings. Enterprise-grade infrastructure, zero maintenance.

Frequently asked questions
How do I find my Fireflies API Key?
Log in to your Fireflies.ai dashboard, navigate to Settings > API, and copy your unique token.
What is AskFred?
AskFred is an AI-powered meeting assistant that can answer questions about any of your recorded meetings based on their transcript data.
Can I record a meeting that is already in progress?
Yes! Use the add_to_live_meeting tool and provide the join URL. The Fireflies bot will attempt to join the call immediately.
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.
