Frequently asked questions
Can I add a new TV series to my library using this agent?
Yes! Use the add_series tool. You will need to provide the title, TVDB ID, and the root folder path where the files should be stored.
How do I check if Sonarr is running correctly or has any errors?
You can use the get_health tool to see any active health checks or get_system_status to retrieve general system information and version details.
Is it possible to see what is currently being downloaded?
Absolutely. Use the get_queue tool to list all items currently in the download queue, including their status and progress.
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.
