How to Use the Duo Security (Two-Factor Authentication API) MCP in CrewAI

Q: How do I add Duo Security (Two-Factor Authentication API) to my CrewAI crew?

Pass the server URL to the mcps parameter in your Agent definition. This grants your agents direct access to all identity management tools.

Q: Can my agents use Duo Security (Two-Factor Authentication API) to audit users in CrewAI?

Yes, your researcher agent can use listusers to pull records. It can then cross-reference these users against your internal database to find discrepancies.

Q: Is Duo Security (Two-Factor Authentication API) reliable for autonomous CrewAI operations?

It is designed for programmatic access. By using authstatus and preauth, your agents can handle the full lifecycle of an authentication request autonomously.

Q: How do I limit which tools my agents can use?

Use the toolfilter option in your agent configuration. This prevents specific agents from accessing sensitive tools like deleteaccount.

Autonomous auth monitoring for CrewAI

Assign a monitor agent to poll `auth_status` constantly. If an authentication session hangs, the agent can escalate the issue to a moderator agent. Use `ping_auth` as a heartbeat check. Your crew will know immediately if the identity service becomes unreachable.

Role-based user management in CrewAI

Task a specialized admin agent with `modify_user` and `list_users`. This agent can handle requests based on incoming support tickets without human intervention. Keep your directory clean by setting a researcher agent to identify stale accounts. It can then trigger `trash_users` to maintain your security posture.

Scale your identity operations in CrewAI

Use `bulk_create_users` to onboard new hires across your entire organization. Your crew ensures all fields are correctly mapped before the request hits the API. Manage complex billing needs with `set_billing_edition`. Your crew can adjust account tiers based on usage patterns reported by your monitoring agents.

Setup guide

Set up Duo Security (Two-Factor Authentication API) 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 Duo Security (Two-Factor Authentication API) tools as needed.

crew.py

from crewai import Agent, Task, Crew

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

task = Task(
    description="List recent Duo Security (Two-Factor Authentication API) 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="Duo Security (Two-Factor Authentication API) Analyst",
        goal="Access and analyze Duo Security (Two-Factor Authentication API) data via MCP.",
        backstory="Expert analyst with direct Duo Security (Two-Factor Authentication API) access.",
        tools=mcp_tools,
    )

    task = Task(
        description="List recent Duo Security (Two-Factor Authentication API) transactions",
        agent=agent,
        expected_output="A summary of recent activity",
    )

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