Frequently asked questions
How do I get a GIPHY API Key?
Visit GIPHY Developers, create a free account, create an app, and copy your API key. Takes less than 2 minutes.
What's the difference between search and translate?
search_gifs returns multiple results matching your query. translate_to_gif returns a single, most relevant GIF for a word or phrase — like a smart translation.
Can I filter content by age rating?
Yes! All search and trending tools support rating filters: g (general), pg (parental guidance), pg-13, and r (restricted).
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.
