Specialized HR crews with Buk

Assign an agent to monitor attendance via `get_attendance` while another manages benefits using `list_benefits`. They share context to ensure your HR records remain accurate. This separation of concerns lets you build a robust system where agents focus on specific tasks. They work together to maintain your organizational data.

Collaborative talent operations in CrewAI

Use `list_jobs` and `list_employees` to help your recruitment agent find and organize talent. The crew coordinates to ensure no candidate slips through the cracks. They exchange information in a shared memory space. This keeps the entire operation moving based on the latest HR data available.

Monitor company health with an MCP Server

Task your analyst agent with pulling `get_company_stats` on a schedule. It evaluates the numbers and flags any anomalies for the manager agent to review. This approach provides constant oversight of your HR metrics. Your agents act as a persistent team that never sleeps.

Setup guide

Set up Buk 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 Buk tools as needed.

crew.py

from crewai import Agent, Task, Crew

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

task = Task(
    description="List recent Buk 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

Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install dependencies

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

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="Buk Analyst",
        goal="Access and analyze Buk data via MCP.",
        backstory="Expert analyst with direct Buk access.",
        tools=mcp_tools,
    )

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