How to Use the Bazaarvoice MCP in CrewAI

Q: How do I give my CrewAI agents access to Bazaarvoice tools?

It's simple. After pip install crewaitools, you just pass your unique Vinkius MCP server URL into the mcps list when you define an agent. CrewAI automatically fetches the tools and makes them available.

Q: Can different agents in my CrewAI team use different Bazaarvoice tools?

Yes. For more control in your MCP setup, you can use the MCPServerHTTP class from crewai.mcp. It includes a toolfilter option that lets you expose only specific tools, like listreviews, to a certain agent in your crew.

Build an Autonomous Community Watchdog

Assemble a team of agents to manage your user feedback. A 'Monitor' agent can run `list_reviews` on a schedule. When it finds a new negative review, it passes the review ID to an 'Analyst' agent, which uses `get_review` to investigate the details. This is a perfect fit for CrewAI's collaborative model. The agents can pass information through a shared context, allowing the 'Analyst' to enrich the data before handing it off to a 'Responder' agent. This MCP connection provides the essential tools for each agent's role.

Assemble a Q&A Answering Crew

You can create a crew dedicated to answering customer questions. An 'Inbox' agent uses `list_questions` to find new queries. It passes them to a 'Researcher' agent, which uses `search_reviews` to find relevant context before a 'Writer' agent drafts a response. This MCP server gives your crew the specific functions they need to do their jobs. Because CrewAI lets you specialize agents, you can build a sophisticated, autonomous system that manages your entire Bazaarvoice Q&A section.

Run Market Research with a CrewAI Team

Use a crew for competitive analysis. One agent can be tasked with using `list_products` and `list_categories` to map out your own catalog. Another agent can do the same for a competitor. A third 'Strategist' agent can then use `get_statistics` on both sets to find trends. Giving your CrewAI agents these tools is straightforward. You just pass the Vinkius MCP URL into the agent's configuration. The framework handles the rest, letting your agents get right to work.

Setup guide

Set up Bazaarvoice 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 Bazaarvoice tools as needed.

crew.py

from crewai import Agent, Task, Crew

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

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

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

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