How to Use the ClickBid MCP in Google ADK

Q: How do I configure ClickBid with the Google ADK framework?

Instantiate McpToolset using your Vinkius HTTP MCP endpoint. Pass this toolset directly to your LlmAgent definition to make all ten auction tools immediately available to Gemini.

Q: How does Google ADK handle errors when ClickBid item creation fails?

If createclickbiditem encounters an error, the server returns a detailed error payload. Gemini reads this traceback, corrects the missing fields, and retries the creation automatically.

Connect ClickBid to Google ADK via MCP to analyze auction inventory and manage bidders with Gemini's massive context.

Manage bidding rosters with Google ADK

The `list_clickbid_bidders` tool retrieves the entire participant roster for your Google ADK agent to process. Gemini's million-token context window lets you feed thousands of bidder profiles into a single prompt for rapid cohort analysis. Your enterprise agent can cross-reference this roster with external datasets. It identifies high-value donors instantly, letting you target specific segments for upcoming premium charity items.

Direct auction item creation from cloud data

The `create_clickbid_item` tool allows your Gemini agent to build new auction listings from raw assets stored in Google Cloud. If you upload a folder of item descriptions, the agent drafts the listings and pushes them straight to your event page. You can use `get_clickbid_item` to verify that the generated fields match your inventory spreadsheets. This loop keeps your catalog accurate without manual data entry.

Trace ticket inventory and sales pipelines

The `list_clickbid_tickets` tool exposes available ticket tiers and counts to your Google ADK pipelines. Your agent reads this data to track seating capacity and alert your team when specific ticket classes run low. Pairing this with `list_clickbid_donations` lets you build automated financial summaries. The agent pulls live donation metrics, formats the numbers, and stores them in your database for post-event reporting.

Setup guide

Set up ClickBid MCP in Google ADK

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
google-adk package (pip install google-adk)
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install Google ADK

Run pip install google-adk to install the Agent Development Kit. MCP support is included via the McpToolset class.
2

Connect via SSE transport

Use McpToolset.from_server() with SseServerParams pointing to your Vinkius endpoint. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Create an LlmAgent

Pass the returned mcp_tools list directly to LlmAgent(tools=mcp_tools). The ADK maps each MCP tool to a native Gemini function call — no manual schema definitions required.
4

Run with any Gemini model

The agent works with any Gemini model (gemini-2.0-flash, gemini-2.5-pro, etc.). Copy the full example on the right to get started with ClickBid tools in your ADK agent.

agent.py

from google.adk.agents import LlmAgent
from google.adk.tools.mcp_tool.mcp_toolset import McpToolset
from google.adk.tools.mcp_tool.mcp_session_manager import SseServerParams

# Connect to the MCP via SSE
mcp_tools, exit_stack = await McpToolset.from_server(
    connection_params=SseServerParams(
        url="https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    )
)

# Create your agent with auto-discovered tools
agent = LlmAgent(
    name="ClickBid_agent",
    model="gemini-2.0-flash",
    instruction="You have access to ClickBid tools via MCP.",
    tools=mcp_tools,
)
