Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Buttondown MCP to Google ADK
Create your Vinkius account to connect Buttondown to Google ADK and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Sync newsletter data with Google ADK
Your agent connects to your account using `list_newsletters`. It maps your existing content structure into your Google Cloud pipeline. You build agents that reason over your entire history of sent emails. It brings your marketing data into the same context as your BigQuery datasets.
Manage campaigns using Google ADK
Invoke `list_emails` to audit what you have already sent. The agent parses these drafts and identifies trends in your messaging. It works inside your existing Google Cloud architecture. You maintain full control over which tools the agent can actually trigger.
Subscriber data processing with Google ADK
Use `get_subscriber` to pull individual profiles into your agent's long-context window. Gemini models process these details alongside your cloud data. This setup allows for complex segmentation tasks. You define the criteria, and the agent identifies the correct subscribers.
