How to Use the Tavus Video Replicas MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

Q: How do I find out about Tavus Video Replicas using OpenAI Agents SDK?

Use the listreplicas tool. It immediately returns a list of every available replica, so your agent knows what voices it can deploy. This is faster than checking documentation.

Q: What happens if I need to delete old video data with Tavus Video Replicas and OpenAI Agents SDK?

You call deletevideo(videoid). The agent executes this action, permanently removing the specified generated video from your system. It’s a direct cleanup function.

Q: Can I check if my replication job is working correctly with Tavus Video Replicas and OpenAI Agents SDK?

Yes, use getvideodetails. This tool pulls detailed information for a specific video ID, confirming its status. You can build logic around this to handle success or failure states.

Q: How does the MCP Server help manage different replicas with OpenAI Agents SDK?

The getreplicadetails tool pulls all metadata for a given replica ID. This lets your agent verify technical specs—like voice pitch or required script format—before attempting generation.

Track Video Job Status on the MCP Server

Running a batch of videos? You don't want to guess if they're ready. The `get_video_details` tool lets your agent check the current state and progress of any video job. It provides specific status updates, so you know exactly when the content is done.

Manage Video Assets with OpenAI Agents SDK

Need to clean up old media? Your agent can call `delete_video` or `delete_replica` directly. This gives your system fine-grained control over generated assets, preventing data bloat and keeping the environment tidy.

List All Available AI Replicas

Before generating anything, you need to know what voices are available. Just calling `list_replicas` gives your agent a complete inventory of all deployed video replicas. This makes it easy for the system to select the right voice model automatically.

Setup guide

Set up Tavus Video Replicas 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 Tavus Video Replicas tools at runtime.
3

Create your Agent

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

Run the agent

Call Runner.run(agent, prompt) to execute. The agent invokes the appropriate Tavus Video Replicas 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="Tavus Video Replicas Agent",
            instructions="You have access to Tavus Video Replicas tools.",
            mcp_servers=[server],
        )
        result = await Runner.run(agent, "List recent transactions")
        print(result.final_output)

asyncio.run(main())
