What is the OpenAI Alternative MCP Server?
Connect your OpenAI account to any AI agent and take full control of your AI resources through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Model Discovery — List all available models (GPT-4, GPT-3.5, DALL-E, Whisper, Embeddings) with ownership and capability info
- File Management — Browse, manage and delete uploaded files used for fine-tuning and Assistants
- Fine-Tuning — Monitor fine-tuning jobs, check status (running, succeeded, failed) and cancel long-running jobs
- Batch Processing — Create, track and cancel batch jobs for cost-effective bulk API processing
- Assistant Management — List and inspect configured Assistants with their models, tools and instructions
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your OpenAI API Key
- Start managing your AI resources from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
No more switching to the OpenAI dashboard to check fine-tune status or manage batch jobs. Your AI acts as a dedicated ML ops assistant.
Who is this for?
- ML Engineers — monitor fine-tuning jobs, track batch processing and manage model files without leaving your IDE
- DevOps — audit uploaded files, review batch statuses and clean up unused resources
- Product Teams — discover available models, inspect Assistant configurations and review resource usage
Built-in capabilities (13)
Partially completed requests may still be processed. Provide the batch ID. Cancel a running batch job
The job status will change to "cancelled". Provide the fine-tune job ID. This is useful if you uploaded the wrong training file or want to stop a long-running job. Cancel a running fine-tuning job
Requires the input file ID (containing JSONL requests) and the endpoint (e.g. "/v1/chat/completions"). Optionally set the completion window ("24h" default). Returns the batch with its ID for tracking. Create a new batch processing job
Provide the file ID from list_files. WARNING: this action is irreversible and will break any fine-tunes or assistants using this file. Delete an uploaded file from OpenAI
Provide the assistant ID. Get details for a specific OpenAI Assistant
Provide the batch ID. Get details for a specific batch job
Provide the fine-tune job ID. Get details for a specific fine-tuning job
g. "gpt-4o", "gpt-4o-mini", "text-embedding-3-small", "dall-e-3", "whisper-1"). Returns the model ID, owner organization, creation date and permission flags. Use this to verify a model exists and check its metadata before using it. Get details for a specific OpenAI model
Each Assistant shows its ID, name, instructions, model, tools (code interpreter, file search, function calling) and creation date. Use this to audit your Assistant configurations. List OpenAI Assistants
Batches allow you to process many API requests at once at a lower cost. Each batch shows its ID, status (validating, in_progress, finalizing, completed, failed, expired, cancelled), input/output file IDs and request counts. List batch processing jobs
Files are used for fine-tuning, Assistants API and batch processing. Each file shows its ID, filename, purpose (fine-tune, assistants, batch), size and status. Optionally filter by purpose. List files uploaded to OpenAI
Each job shows its ID, status (validating_files, queued, running, succeeded, failed, cancelled), base model, training file, created date and estimated finish time. Use this to monitor your fine-tuning pipeline. List fine-tuning jobs
5, DALL-E, Whisper, Embedding and fine-tuned models. Each model returns its ID, owned_by (organization), creation date and permissions. Use this to discover which models are available for your account and their capabilities. List all available OpenAI models

Frequently asked questions
How do I get my OpenAI API Key?
Log in to the OpenAI Platform, go to API Keys in the left sidebar, click Create new secret key, give it a name and copy the key immediately — it starts with sk-proj- and won't be shown again.
Can I monitor my fine-tuning jobs?
Yes! Use list_fine_tunes to see all fine-tuning jobs with their status (validating_files, queued, running, succeeded, failed, cancelled). Use get_fine_tune with a specific job ID for detailed info including training progress, estimated finish time and result model ID. You can also cancel running jobs with cancel_fine_tune.
Can I manage batch processing jobs?
Yes! Use list_batches to see all batch jobs, create_batch to submit new batches with an input file ID and endpoint, get_batch to check progress and cancel_batch to stop running jobs. Batches process requests asynchronously at a lower cost than individual API calls.
Can I list and inspect my Assistants?
Yes! Use list_assistants to see all configured Assistants with their models, tools (code interpreter, file search, function calling) and instructions. Use get_assistant with a specific assistant ID for full details including file IDs and metadata.
How does Windsurf discover MCP tools?
Windsurf reads the mcp_config.json file on startup and connects to each configured server via Streamable HTTP. Tools are listed in the MCP panel and available to Cascade automatically.
Can Cascade chain multiple MCP tool calls?
Yes. Cascade is an agentic system. it can plan and execute multi-step workflows, calling several tools in sequence to accomplish complex tasks without manual prompting between steps.
Does Windsurf support multiple MCP servers?
Yes. Add as many servers as needed in mcp_config.json. Each server's tools appear in the MCP panel and Cascade can use tools from different servers in a single flow.
Server not connecting
Check Settings → MCP for the server status. Try toggling it off and on.
