CrewAI agents for design verification

Assign a dedicated agent in your crew to run `validate_api_design` on your new endpoints. It checks your HTTP verbs and response shapes while other agents handle the implementation logic. This division of labor ensures your API design is vetted by a specialist. It catches architectural issues before the code is even written.

Consistent API standards for teams

Your crew enforces strict rules on pagination and versioning across the entire project. Each agent follows the same design constraints defined by the tool. This prevents the drift that happens when humans design endpoints in isolation. You get a uniform API surface across all services.

Automated error contract checks

The `validate_api_design` tool forces your crew to define error fields using RFC 7807. This keeps your API behavior predictable for all consumers. Your agents refuse to finalize designs that lack a proper deprecation policy. You build better systems by catching these gaps during the design phase.

Setup guide

Set up API Design Prover 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 API Design Prover tools as needed.

crew.py

from crewai import Agent, Task, Crew

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

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

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

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

Common questions about API Design Prover MCP in CrewAI

You include the server in the agent setup. The team will then use the validation tool to critique API designs before moving to the coding phase.

Yes, the tool is available to any agent in your crew. They can share the design feedback to ensure the entire team follows the same standards.

It can. You provide the design specs to the tool, and the agents will point out any deviations from REST best practices or versioning rules.

Your design documents are processed only during the tool execution. The server environment is ephemeral and does not retain any of your technical specifications.

The server maintains strict data isolation. Your API schema is handled in a secure sandbox and purged immediately after the validation check finishes.
