OpenAI Agents MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that exposes OpenAI agents through the MCP protocol.

Features

This server exposes both individual agents and a multi-agent orchestrator using the OpenAI Agents SDK:

Individual Specialized Agents

Web Search Agent: A specialized agent for searching the web for real-time information
File Search Agent: A specialized agent for searching and analyzing files in OpenAI's vector store
Computer Action Agent: A specialized agent for performing actions on your computer safely

Multi-Agent Orchestrator

Orchestrator Agent: A powerful agent that can coordinate between the specialized agents, choosing the right one(s) for each task

Each agent is accessed through the MCP protocol, making them available to any MCP client, including the Claude desktop app.

Implementation Details

Tool Requirements

WebSearchTool: No required parameters, but can accept optional location context
FileSearchTool: Requires vector_store_ids (IDs from your OpenAI vector stores)
ComputerTool: Requires an AsyncComputer implementation (currently simulated)

Customization

You can customize this server by:

Implementing a full AsyncComputer interface to enable real computer interactions
Adding additional specialized agents for other OpenAI tools
Enhancing the orchestrator agent to handle more complex workflows

Configuration

You can configure the server using environment variables:

OPENAI_API_KEY: Your OpenAI API key (required)
MCP_TRANSPORT: Transport protocol to use (default: "stdio", can be "sse")

Development

Setup development environment

# Clone the repository git clone https://github.com/lroolle/openai-agents-mcp-server.git cd openai-agents-mcp-server # Create a virtual environment uv venv source .venv/bin/activate # On Windows: .venv\Scripts\activate # Install dependencies uv sync --dev

Testing with MCP Inspector

You can test the server using the MCP Inspector:

# In one terminal, run the server with SSE transport export OPENAI_API_KEY=your-api-key export MCP_TRANSPORT=sse uv run mcp dev src/agents_mcp_server/server.py

Then open a web browser and navigate to http://localhost:5173.
