Frequently asked questions
How do I get started?
Subscribe, enter your API credentials (your secret token from Layup Dashboard → Developer Settings → API Keys), and you're ready. No code, no environment files, no endpoints — just connect and start managing your orders through your AI agent.
Can my AI agent check the remaining balance on an active order?
Yes! Provide the Order target ID to the agent. It utilizes the get_order tool returning exact metrics on money received vs pending values. It aggregates everything in conversational format so you don't jump windows.
What happens when I need to create a manual dynamic lay-by in chat?
Just specify the item price, customer token, and configuration. The AI agent executes a create_order action connecting via the payload and creates proper links. The shopper gets billed correctly, saving you minutes of UI clicking.
Can I query an exact list of all historically recorded buyers/customers?
Absolutely. Ask the agent to list all stored customers. It compiles email arrays, reference ID trackers, phone tags — perfect for store leads and analysts evaluating buyer records without exporting flat files.
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.
