How to Use the Donately MCP in CrewAI

Q: Can a CrewAI agent monitor Donately campaign performance autonomously?

Yes, you can assign an agent to periodically run getcampaignperformancesummary. CrewAI manages the execution loop, allowing the agent to analyze the metrics and escalate issues if goals aren't met.

Q: How does CrewAI handle large lists of Donately donations?

Your research agent calls listalldonations to retrieve the transaction history. CrewAI stores this data in its shared memory, enabling other agents to analyze the trends without redundant API requests.

Coordinated Campaign Audits via MCP Server

The `get_campaign_performance_summary` tool gives your analyst agent the raw metrics needed to evaluate active fundraising drives. While the analyst reviews the performance, a separate writer agent uses the data to draft update reports. CrewAI manages this collaboration by passing the tool outputs between agents in a structured sequence. The team uses `list_fundraising_campaigns` to map out all active initiatives before assigning individual review tasks.

Autonomous Donor Segmentation

Sorting your supporter database starts with `list_active_donors` to extract the full roster of contributors. Your segmentation agent analyzes this list, then passes high-value candidates to a specialist agent who runs `list_highest_lifetime_donors`. This multi-agent approach ensures that your team doesn't waste time on manual data sorting. The agents collaborate in the background, building highly targeted outreach lists based on actual giving patterns.

Automated Contribution Reconciliation

The `list_latest_contributions` tool feeds a continuous stream of transaction data to your audit agent. If a transaction looks unusual, the agent immediately queries `get_donation_details` to verify the processing status via your MCP Server connection. A separate moderator agent can flag discrepancies and alert your human staff. By delegating these checks to a crew, you ensure that every donation is accounted for without manual oversight.

Setup guide

Set up Donately 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 Donately tools as needed.

crew.py

from crewai import Agent, Task, Crew

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

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

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

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