Perplexity

Dynamic logic in LangChain

Feed `get_random_advice` directly into your LangGraph nodes to inject unpredictable variables into your chains. You control the flow by using tool outputs as the input for your next reasoning step. Observability isn't a guess here. Since you're using LangSmith, you'll see exactly how the agent parses the advice string and whether it triggered a subsequent database lookup.

Searchable advice in LangChain

Trigger `search_advice` when your agent encounters a specific keyword in user input. It retrieves relevant strings that your prompt templates then wrap into a final response. This keeps your agent reactive. Instead of hardcoding responses, your chain pulls fresh text based on the current context.

ID-based retrieval in LangChain

Use `get_advice_by_id` to fetch specific wisdom records you've flagged in earlier turns. It turns your agent into a system that can reference its own history. This MCP Server keeps the connection stateless unless you initialize a session. You'll build agents that act like they have a long-term memory of specific advice entries.

Setup guide

Set up Advice Slip MCP in LangChain

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
langchain-mcp-adapters + langgraph packages
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install dependencies
Run pip install langchain-mcp-adapters langgraph langchain-openai. The MCP adapters package converts MCP tools into native LangChain BaseTool objects.
2

Connect via HTTP transport
Use MultiServerMCPClient with "transport": "http" pointing to your Vinkius endpoint. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Create a ReAct agent
Pass the discovered tools to create_react_agent() from LangGraph. The agent automatically routes Advice Slip tool calls through the MCP protocol.
4

Run with any LLM
Swap ChatOpenAI for ChatAnthropic, ChatGoogleGenerativeAI, or any LangChain-compatible model. The MCP tools work identically across all providers.

agent.py

from langchain_mcp_adapters.client import MultiServerMCPClient
from langgraph.prebuilt import create_react_agent
from langchain_openai import ChatOpenAI

async with MultiServerMCPClient({
    "advice-slip-mcp": {
        "transport": "http",
        "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp",
    }
}) as client:
    tools = client.get_tools()

    agent = create_react_agent(
        ChatOpenAI(model="gpt-4o"),
        tools,
    )
    result = await agent.ainvoke({
        "messages": "List recent Advice Slip transactions"
    })
    print(result["messages"][-1].content)
