Perplexity

Collaborative messaging crews

Assign one agent to watch for new messages using `list_latest_whatsapp_messages` while another handles the replies. This division of labor keeps your response times fast. Your agents share memory, so the responding agent knows exactly what the monitor agent found. It creates a cohesive operation where every message is addressed by the right expert.

Template library management

Let your crew manage your approved communications. An agent can call `list_approved_templates` to see which messages are available before suggesting a response. This ensures your agents only send compliant content. They can verify the template names and IDs before initiating the `send_whatsapp_template` tool.

Metadata tracking

Use a dedicated oversight agent to monitor your account health. By calling `get_doubletick_account_metadata`, the agent tracks your usage and flags potential issues to the rest of the crew. This keeps your autonomous operations running smoothly. If you hit an API limit, the crew can pivot to different tasks until the quota resets.

Setup guide

Set up DoubleTick 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 DoubleTick tools as needed.

crew.py

from crewai import Agent, Task, Crew

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

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

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

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

Common questions about DoubleTick MCP in CrewAI

Include the server URL in your Agent definition. You can also use a tool filter to restrict which agents have permission to send messages.

Yes. Agents can use `search_contacts_by_keyword` to find a phone number and then pass that contact to another agent for outreach.

It is designed for this exact purpose. You can share the server across your entire crew so every agent has access to the same messaging tools.

The agent receives a clear error message from the tool. You can build a 'manager' agent that catches these errors and reassigns the task or notifies you.

Your message history is accessed through a secure, encrypted tunnel. The MCP Server acts as a temporary gateway, ensuring your conversation data isn't exposed elsewhere.
