## What is OpenAI Agents SDK?

The OpenAI Agents SDK is a lightweight framework for building AI agents that can use tools and maintain conversation state. It provides a simple interface for creating agents with hosted MCP tool support.
Key features include:
- Hosted MCP Tools: Connect to external services through hosted MCP endpoints
- SQLite Sessions: Persist conversation history across interactions
- Simple API: Clean interface with Agent, Runner, and tool configuration
- Streaming Support: Real-time response streaming for interactive applications

## What is the Minerstat MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Minerstat MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Minerstat account. It provides structured and secure access to your mining operations, so your agent can monitor hardware, analyze mining performance, manage pools, track coins, and optimize rigs automatically on your behalf.
- Real-time hardware monitoring: Check the status, temperature, hash rates, and health of your mining rigs and GPUs at any time.
- Pool and coin management: Switch mining pools or update coin settings so your operations are always optimized for profitability.
- Performance analytics and alerts: Get detailed reports on mining efficiency, power usage, and receive alerts for downtime or abnormal activity.
- Remote rig management: Start, stop, or restart specific rigs remotely, making troubleshooting and maintenance a breeze.
- Wallet and payment tracking: Track earnings, payouts, and wallet addresses across coins and pools for seamless accounting and auditing.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `MINERSTAT_GET_COINS_DATA` | Get Coins Data | Retrieves mining coin data from minerstat API including hashrates, difficulty, rewards, and prices. Use this tool to get current mining statistics for cryptocurrencies. You can filter results by specific coin tickers (e.g., 'BTC,ETH') or by mining algorithms (e.g., 'SHA-256,Ethash'). Returns data such as network hashrate, difficulty, estimated mining rewards, current price, and trading volume for each coin. Note: `difficulty` and network hashrate fields may be null for some coins; validate their presence before using in calculations. |
| `MINERSTAT_GET_HARDWARE_DATA` | Get Hardware Data | Retrieve mining hardware data from minerstat including hashrates, power consumption, and specifications. Use this tool to get benchmark data for GPUs and ASIC miners to compare mining performance across different hardware. Filter by type (gpu/asic) or brand to narrow results. Combine both filters together to avoid mixed variants with differing hashrate and power draw values. |
| `MINERSTAT_GET_POOLS_DATA` | Get Pools Data | Retrieve mining pool data from minerstat. Requires an authenticated minerstat connection. Returns a list of mining pools with their supported coins, fees, payout thresholds, and other details. Use to discover pools for a specific coin or explore all available mining pools. |
| `MINERSTAT_GET_WORKER_ACTIVITY` | Get Worker Activity | Retrieve activity logs for a specific worker for the last 3 days. Returns online/offline events, errors, and other activity for troubleshooting worker uptime issues or auditing worker behavior. The API key is automatically extracted from the Authorization header. |
| `MINERSTAT_GET_WORKER_DATA` | Get Worker Data | Retrieve detailed real-time data for a specific mining worker. This tool fetches comprehensive information about a worker including: - Current status (online/offline/idle) - Hardware info (GPUs/ASICs with temperatures, fans, power) - Mining info (coin, pool, client software) - Hashrate data (current hashrates for main/dual/CPU mining) - Share statistics (accepted, rejected, stale) - Revenue estimates Use this when you need detailed metrics for a specific worker. The worker name must exactly match a worker configured in the minerstat dashboard. Returns found=False if the worker doesn't exist. |

## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK

The Minerstat MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent to Minerstat. It provides structured and secure access so your agent can perform Minerstat operations on your behalf through a secure, permission-based interface.
With Composio's managed implementation, you don't have to create your own developer app. For production, if you're building an end product, we recommend using your own credentials. The managed server helps you prototype fast and go from 0-1 faster.

## Step-by-step Guide

### 1. Prerequisites

Before starting, make sure you have:
- Composio API Key and OpenAI API Key
- Primary know-how of OpenAI Agents SDK
- A live Minerstat project
- Some knowledge of Python or Typescript

### 1. Getting API Keys for OpenAI and Composio

OpenAI API Key
- Go to the [OpenAI dashboard](https://platform.openai.com/settings/organization/api-keys) and create an API key. You'll need credits to use the models, or you can connect to another model provider.
- Keep the API key safe.
Composio API Key
- Log in to the [Composio dashboard](https://dashboard.composio.dev?utm_source=toolkits&utm_medium=framework_docs).
- Go to Settings and copy your API key.

### 2. Install dependencies

Install the Composio SDK and the OpenAI Agents SDK.
```python
pip install composio_openai_agents openai-agents python-dotenv
```

```typescript
npm install @composio/openai-agents @openai/agents dotenv
```

### 3. Set up environment variables

Create a .env file and add your OpenAI and Composio API keys.
```bash
OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-...your-api-key
COMPOSIO_API_KEY=your-api-key
USER_ID=composio_user@gmail.com
```

### 4. Import dependencies

What's happening:
- You're importing all necessary libraries.
- The Composio and OpenAIAgentsProvider classes are imported to connect your OpenAI agent to Composio tools like Minerstat.
```python
import asyncio
import os
from dotenv import load_dotenv

from composio import Composio
from composio_openai_agents import OpenAIAgentsProvider
from agents import Agent, Runner, HostedMCPTool, SQLiteSession
```

```typescript
import 'dotenv/config';
import { Composio } from '@composio/core';
import { OpenAIAgentsProvider } from '@composio/openai-agents';
import { Agent, hostedMcpTool, run, OpenAIConversationsSession } from '@openai/agents';
import * as readline from 'readline';
```

### 5. Set up the Composio instance

No description provided.
```python
load_dotenv()

api_key = os.getenv("COMPOSIO_API_KEY")
user_id = os.getenv("USER_ID")

if not api_key:
    raise RuntimeError("COMPOSIO_API_KEY is not set. Create a .env file with COMPOSIO_API_KEY=your_key")

# Initialize Composio
composio = Composio(api_key=api_key, provider=OpenAIAgentsProvider())
```

```typescript
dotenv.config();

const composioApiKey = process.env.COMPOSIO_API_KEY;
const userId = process.env.USER_ID;

if (!composioApiKey) {
  throw new Error('COMPOSIO_API_KEY is not set. Create a .env file with COMPOSIO_API_KEY=your_key');
}
if (!userId) {
  throw new Error('USER_ID is not set');
}

// Initialize Composio
const composio = new Composio({
  apiKey: composioApiKey,
  provider: new OpenAIAgentsProvider(),
});
```

### 6. Create a Tool Router session

What is happening:
- You give the Tool Router the user id and the toolkits you want available. Here, it is only minerstat.
- The router checks the user's Minerstat connection and prepares the MCP endpoint.
- The returned session.mcp.url is the MCP URL that your agent will use to access Minerstat.
- This approach keeps things lightweight and lets the agent request Minerstat tools only when needed during the conversation.
```python
# Create a Minerstat Tool Router session
session = composio.create(
    user_id=user_id,
    toolkits=["minerstat"]
)

mcp_url = session.mcp.url
```

```typescript
// Create Tool Router session for Minerstat
const session = await composio.create(userId as string, {
  toolkits: ['minerstat'],
});
const mcpUrl = session.mcp.url;
```

### 7. Configure the agent

No description provided.
```python
# Configure agent with MCP tool
agent = Agent(
    name="Assistant",
    model="gpt-5",
    instructions=(
        "You are a helpful assistant that can access Minerstat. "
        "Help users perform Minerstat operations through natural language."
    ),
    tools=[
        HostedMCPTool(
            tool_config={
                "type": "mcp",
                "server_label": "tool_router",
                "server_url": mcp_url,
                "headers": {"x-api-key": api_key},
                "require_approval": "never",
            }
        )
    ],
)
```

```typescript
// Configure agent with MCP tool
const agent = new Agent({
  name: 'Assistant',
  model: 'gpt-5',
  instructions:
    'You are a helpful assistant that can access Minerstat. Help users perform Minerstat operations through natural language.',
  tools: [
    hostedMcpTool({
      serverLabel: 'tool_router',
      serverUrl: mcpUrl,
      headers: { 'x-api-key': composioApiKey },
      requireApproval: 'never',
    }),
  ],
});
```

### 8. Start chat loop and handle conversation

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Minerstat MCP?

With a standalone Minerstat MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Minerstat tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Minerstat and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

### Can I use Tool Router MCP with OpenAI Agents SDK?

Yes, you can. OpenAI Agents SDK fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right Minerstat tools.

### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Minerstat while using Tool Router?

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Minerstat scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do.

### How safe is my data with Composio Tool Router?

All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your Minerstat data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
