FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01

How do I reply to a customer conversation using the AI?

You can use the add_reply tool. Just provide the Conversation ID and the body of your message, and the agent will send it to the customer via FreeScout.

02

Can I update the status or assignee of a ticket?

Yes! Use the update_conversation tool. You can change the status (active, pending, closed, spam) or provide an assignee_id to route the ticket to a specific team member.

03

Is it possible to add internal notes that the customer won't see?

Absolutely. Use the add_note tool to post internal comments on a conversation. These are visible to your team in FreeScout but are never sent to the customer.

04

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.

05

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.

06

Does the SDK support streaming responses?

Yes. The SDK supports SSE and Streamable HTTP transports, both of which work natively with Vinkius.

07
