OpenAI MCP Connector for Claude

A+

Manage OpenAI resources via API — list models, monitor fine-tunes, manage batches and inspect Assistants from any AI agent.

13 tools Official Updated Jun 28, 2026 Official Vinkius Partner

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

  1. Subscribe to this server
  2. Enter your OpenAI API Key
  3. 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

13 tools expose this connector's capabilities to your AI agent.

cancel_batch

Partially completed requests may still be processed. Provide the batch ID. Cancel a running batch job

cancel_fine_tune

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

create_batch

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

delete_file

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

get_assistant

Provide the assistant ID. Get details for a specific OpenAI Assistant

get_batch

Provide the batch ID. Get details for a specific batch job

get_fine_tune

Provide the fine-tune job ID. Get details for a specific fine-tuning job

get_model

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

list_assistants

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

list_batches

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

list_files

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

list_fine_tunes

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

list_models

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

Show me all available GPT models.

I found 12 GPT models in your account: gpt-4o (owned by openai, created 2024-05), gpt-4o-mini (lightweight, cost-effective), gpt-4-turbo, gpt-4, gpt-3.5-turbo, plus several fine-tuned variants. Would you like details on any specific model?

Check the status of my latest fine-tuning job.

Your latest fine-tune job ftjob-abc123 is currently 'running' at 67% completion. It's training on 1,240 examples using gpt-3.5-turbo as the base model. Estimated finish is in approximately 2 hours. The training file is file-xyz789.

List all my uploaded files and their purposes.

You have 8 files uploaded: 3 for fine-tuning (training JSONL files), 2 for Assistants (knowledge base PDFs), 2 for batch processing (request JSONL files) and 1 vector store file. Total storage used: 45MB.

Log in to the [**OpenAI Platform**](https://platform.openai.com/api-keys), 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.
