Compare Domestic and Export Spreads

The `analyze_market_opportunity` tool checks current global commodity prices against local bids to find where your grain makes the most money. Your production agents run this analysis automatically before committing inventory to any buyer. This lets your system flag profitable international deals without manual spreadsheet tracking. You get raw margin comparison data returned directly to your agent execution pipeline.

Get Live Freight Quotes in OpenAI Agents SDK

The agent uses `get_transportation_rate` to calculate shipping costs per kilometer for rail, barge, or ocean freight. This removes the guesswork from shipping logistics by pulling real-world transport data. Your agent factors these shipping variables into the final contract drafts. You configure the connection once through Vinkius and let the SDK handle the transport math in the background.

Calculate Net Farm-Gate Value

We use `calculate_farm_gate_parity` to subtract transport fees and export taxes from the destination port price. This gives you the actual cash value of the crop at the farm gate. Guardrails in this MCP validate the final calculation before your agent triggers a contract draft. You get clean, verified numbers that prevent costly pricing errors in your trade pipeline.

Setup guide

Set up Export Parity Calculator MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
openai-agents package (pip install openai-agents)
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install the SDK

Run pip install openai-agents to install the OpenAI Agents SDK. The MCP integration is built-in — no extra dependencies needed.
2

Connect via SSE transport

Use MCPServerSse with your Vinkius endpoint URL. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com. The SDK auto-discovers all Export Parity Calculator tools at runtime.
3

Create your Agent

Pass the MCP to Agent(mcp_servers=[server]). The agent receives Export Parity Calculator tools as native definitions — JSON schemas resolve automatically.
4

Run the agent

Call Runner.run(agent, prompt) to execute. The agent invokes the appropriate Export Parity Calculator tools and returns structured results. Copy the full example on the right to get started.

agent.py

import asyncio
from agents import Agent, Runner
from agents.mcp import MCPServerSse

async def main():
    async with MCPServerSse(
        url="https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    ) as server:
        agent = Agent(
            name="Export Parity Calculator Agent",
            instructions="You have access to Export Parity Calculator tools.",
            mcp_servers=[server],
        )
        result = await Runner.run(agent, "List recent transactions")
        print(result.final_output)

asyncio.run(main())

Common questions about Export Parity Calculator MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

Install the SDK, connect the MCP via your Vinkius URL, and pass it to your Agent constructor. The agent auto-discovers the tools immediately.

Yes, you can restrict access by passing a specific list of tools to your agent config. This keeps your agent focused on the MCP tools it needs.

It pulls fresh shipping rates directly from the integrated logistics APIs whenever your agent runs a query using this MCP. You do not have to maintain static rate sheets.

Currently, all calculations are returned in USD. You can have a secondary agent handle currency conversion using a different tool from the catalog.

Your commodity pricing and tax data are processed in transit and never stored on Vinkius. All connections use secure HTTPS to prevent exposure of your trade margins.
