How to Use the Acunetix 360 MCP in CrewAI

Q: How would I set up a CrewAI team to manage Acunetix 360 scans?

Define a 'Scanner' agent with the launchscan tool and a 'Reporter' agent with listvulnerabilities. Create a sequential task where the Scanner runs first, then the Reporter analyzes the results.

Q: What's the easiest way to give my CrewAI agents access to Acunetix 360?

Just pass the Vinkius MCP URL to the mcps parameter when defining your Agent. CrewAI handles the rest, automatically discovering and equipping the agent with the available tools.

Deploy an autonomous security team. Your CrewAI agents can now use Acunetix 360 to monitor, analyze, and report on web vulnerabilities 24/7.

Assign Roles for Security Ops

Create a 'Scanner' agent whose only job is to use the `launch_scan` tool. It can run scans on a schedule or in response to triggers, like a new domain being registered. Then, an 'Analyst' agent can take over. Its job is to use `list_vulnerabilities` to examine scan results, prioritize them, and pass the critical findings to another agent for action. This is role-based specialization in action.

Continuous Autonomous Monitoring

A 'Monitor' agent can run in a loop, periodically calling `list_scans` to check for completed scans. Once a scan is done, it passes the ID to the 'Analyst' agent. This setup creates a persistent, autonomous security monitoring system. Your crew works around the clock, ensuring that new vulnerabilities are found and triaged the moment a scan finishes.

Your CrewAI Team's Security MCP Server

This Acunetix 360 MCP Server is a set of pre-built tools for your agents. You don't need to write custom functions or API wrappers. Just give your CrewAI agents the MCP URL. By filtering tools, you can ensure each agent only has access to the functions it needs. Your 'Scanner' agent gets `launch_scan`, but maybe not `list_vulnerabilities`. This enforces separation of duties within your crew.

Setup guide

Set up Acunetix 360 MCP in CrewAI

Prerequisites

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

1

Install CrewAI
Run pip install crewai to install the framework. MCP support is built-in via the mcps parameter.
2

Add the MCP URL to your agent
Pass your Vinkius endpoint directly to the mcps list. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com. CrewAI handles tool discovery and caching automatically.
3

Kick off your crew
Create a Crew with your agent and tasks. Call crew.kickoff() — the agent will automatically invoke Acunetix 360 tools as needed.

crew.py

from crewai import Agent, Task, Crew

agent = Agent(
    role="Acunetix 360 Analyst",
    goal="Access and analyze Acunetix 360 data via MCP.",
    backstory="Expert analyst with direct Acunetix 360 access.",
    mcps=[
        "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    ],
)

task = Task(
    description="List recent Acunetix 360 transactions",
    agent=agent,
    expected_output="A summary of recent activity",
)

crew = Crew(agents=[agent], tasks=[task])
result = crew.kickoff()
print(result)

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
crewai + crewai-tools packages
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install dependencies
Run pip install crewai crewai-tools. The MCPServerAdapter handles lifecycle management and tool conversion.
2

Connect with MCPServerAdapter
Use MCPServerAdapter as a context manager with SseServerParameters pointing to your Vinkius endpoint. The adapter automatically manages connection lifecycle.
3

Assign tools and run
Pass the returned mcp_tools to your agent's tools parameter. The adapter converts MCP tools to native BaseTool objects compatible with all CrewAI agents.

crew.py

from crewai import Agent, Task, Crew
from crewai_tools import MCPServerAdapter
from mcp import SseServerParameters

server_params = SseServerParameters(
    url="https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
)

with MCPServerAdapter(server_params) as mcp_tools:
    agent = Agent(
        role="Acunetix 360 Analyst",
        goal="Access and analyze Acunetix 360 data via MCP.",
        backstory="Expert analyst with direct Acunetix 360 access.",
        tools=mcp_tools,
    )

    task = Task(
        description="List recent Acunetix 360 transactions",
        agent=agent,
        expected_output="A summary of recent activity",
    )

    crew = Crew(agents=[agent], tasks=[task])
    result = crew.kickoff()
    print(result)

Common questions about Acunetix 360 MCP in CrewAI

Define a 'Scanner' agent with the `launch_scan` tool and a 'Reporter' agent with `list_vulnerabilities`. Create a sequential task where the Scanner runs first, then the Reporter analyzes the results.

The agents can't decide on their own, but they can automate the initial triage. An agent can use `list_vulnerabilities`, and if an issue matches certain patterns you define, it can flag it for human review.

Just pass the Vinkius MCP URL to the `mcps` parameter when defining your Agent. CrewAI handles the rest, automatically discovering and equipping the agent with the available tools.

Yes, that's a core pattern for CrewAI. The 'Scanner' agent can return the scan ID from `launch_scan`. This ID is then passed to the 'Analyst' agent, which uses it with `list_scans` and `list_vulnerabilities`.

The server only processes data required by the tools: target URLs for scans, scan session details, and vulnerability reports. Your CrewAI agents interact with a sandboxed server, and all data access is governed by your private Vinkius token. No credentials are stored.
