Frequently asked questions
How can I search for treatment facilities near a specific set of coordinates?
Use the search_facilities tool by providing the lat (latitude) and lon (longitude) parameters. You can also specify a radius in miles to define the search area.
Where can I find the list of service codes to filter my search?
You can run the list_services tool. It will return all available service categories and their corresponding codes which you can then use in the service_code parameter of search_facilities.
Can I get the full contact information for a specific facility if I have its ID?
Yes! Use the get_facility tool with the facility_id. This will retrieve detailed information including the address, phone number, and the full list of services provided by that location.
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.
