Autonomous election research for CrewAI

Assign a researcher agent to `get_election_results` for every state. It gathers the numbers while your analyst agent summarizes the impact. CrewAI shares the memory between agents. The second agent doesn't need to call the tool again; it just reads the previous output.

Multi-agent race tracking in CrewAI

Give your crew access to `get_race_details` to build a live dashboard. Agents can compare current results against historical data stored in their context. You control the execution flow. Set it to sequential if you need the data checked before the report is written.

Election data validation with CrewAI

Deploy a moderator agent to run `check_api_status` periodically. If the feed goes down, it alerts your primary research agent to pause. This prevents your crew from hallucinating results during downtime. It keeps the whole operation grounded in real-time truth.

Setup guide

Set up AP Elections API 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 AP Elections API tools as needed.

crew.py

from crewai import Agent, Task, Crew

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

task = Task(
    description="List recent AP Elections API 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="AP Elections API Analyst",
        goal="Access and analyze AP Elections API data via MCP.",
        backstory="Expert analyst with direct AP Elections API access.",
        tools=mcp_tools,
    )

    task = Task(
        description="List recent AP Elections API transactions",
        agent=agent,
        expected_output="A summary of recent activity",
    )

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