How to Use the CaptionHub MCP in LangChain

Q: Can LangChain and CaptionHub handle complex project lists?

Yes, you can iterate through the output of listprojects to manage hundreds of videos. The agent parses the array and decides which projects need attention based on your specific logic.

Build complex video localization chains in LangChain by connecting your agents to the CaptionHub MCP Server.

Chain video workflows with LangChain

Feed `transcribe_video` output directly into subsequent analysis nodes within your LangGraph chain. You define the logic, and the agent handles the execution flow without manual intervention. Your pipeline gains full observability via LangSmith. Every step, from `create_project` to `update_project`, leaves a trace of inputs and outputs for debugging your multi-step reasoning.

Automate project management tasks

Trigger `list_projects` to populate your agent's context with active work. It identifies the correct project ID before executing tasks, ensuring the chain doesn't stall on missing references. Use `get_project_details` to pull metadata into your logic gates. If a project status changes, your agent reacts instantly to move the next link forward.

Manage caption lifecycles programmatically

Approve final deliverables using `approve_captions` once your agent validates the text. This closes the loop on your automated localization pipeline. Grab ready-to-ship assets via `export_captions`. The resulting URL passes right into your next storage or delivery service node.

Setup guide

Set up CaptionHub MCP in LangChain

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
langchain-mcp-adapters + langgraph packages
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install dependencies
Run pip install langchain-mcp-adapters langgraph langchain-openai. The MCP adapters package converts MCP tools into native LangChain BaseTool objects.
2

Connect via HTTP transport
Use MultiServerMCPClient with "transport": "http" pointing to your Vinkius endpoint. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Create a ReAct agent
Pass the discovered tools to create_react_agent() from LangGraph. The agent automatically routes CaptionHub tool calls through the MCP protocol.
4

Run with any LLM
Swap ChatOpenAI for ChatAnthropic, ChatGoogleGenerativeAI, or any LangChain-compatible model. The MCP tools work identically across all providers.

agent.py

from langchain_mcp_adapters.client import MultiServerMCPClient
from langgraph.prebuilt import create_react_agent
from langchain_openai import ChatOpenAI

async with MultiServerMCPClient({
    "captionhub-mcp": {
        "transport": "http",
        "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp",
    }
}) as client:
    tools = client.get_tools()

    agent = create_react_agent(
        ChatOpenAI(model="gpt-4o"),
        tools,
    )
    result = await agent.ainvoke({
        "messages": "List recent CaptionHub transactions"
    })
    print(result["messages"][-1].content)

Common questions about CaptionHub MCP in LangChain

Install the MCP adapters and define your server configuration using the provided URL. Pass the result of the tool discovery function directly into your agent constructor to grant it access to the CaptionHub API.

Yes, you can iterate through the output of `list_projects` to manage hundreds of videos. The agent parses the array and decides which projects need attention based on your specific logic.

Persistence depends on your agent session setup. Use a client session to maintain context across multiple turns so the agent remembers which project it is currently editing.

Every call made by the server shows up in your LangSmith traces. You see exactly what tool was called, what arguments were passed, and the raw response from the CaptionHub backend.

All communication happens over the established transport layer using your unique endpoint token. CaptionHub only handles video metadata and transcript text, ensuring your raw video files remain outside the inference loop.
