Frequently asked questions
How do I get the identifier for an item?
The identifier is the unique string in the item's URL. For example, from https://archive.org/details/big_buck_bunny, the identifier is "big_buck_bunny". You can also get identifiers from search results using the ia-search-mcp server.
What file formats are typically available?
It depends on the item type. Texts often have PDF, EPUB, MOBI, plain text, and Daisy formats. Movies have MP4, OGV, and archival formats. Audio has MP3, OGG, and FLAC. The get_files tool shows all available formats for each item.
Can I see who reviewed an item?
Yes! Use the get_reviews tool. It returns the reviewer's username, star rating (1-5), review text, and review date. Not all items have reviews — community-contributed items tend to have more user feedback.
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.
