How to Use the eCellar MCP in CrewAI

Q: How do I load eCellar tools into my CrewAI agents using the Vinkius MCP Server URL?

You install crewaitools and pass your Vinkius MCP Server URL directly in the agent's configuration list. This exposes all winery endpoints to your autonomous team.

Q: Can I limit which eCellar tools a CrewAI agent can use?

Yes, use MCPServerHTTP with a toolfilter to restrict tools like listinventory or listorders to specific specialized agents in your crew.

Q: How is eCellar credit card and payment data secured in CrewAI?

The listorders and getorder tools only return high-level payment status and transaction totals. No raw credit card data or payment credentials are ever exposed to your MCP agents.

Deploy specialized multi-agent teams to manage eCellar winery operations autonomously in CrewAI.

Multi-agent wine allocation management using CrewAI

The `get_product` and `list_inventory` tools supply real-time bottle counts to your CrewAI agents. A specialized logistics agent tracks active stock levels while a sales agent checks wine club allocations. These agents collaborate using CrewAI's shared memory to prevent overbooking of rare vintages. The entire process runs in the background, updating your eCellar catalog without human supervision.

Autonomous guest relations via this eCellar MCP Server

The `get_customer` and `list_reservations` tools allow your CrewAI agents to manage tasting room schedules. One agent reviews incoming bookings while another retrieves the guest's buying history to plan a custom tasting flight. You configure this by passing the Vinkius URL directly to the agent's `mcps` parameter. This gives your crew instant access to eCellar CRM data, ensuring high-value club members get personalized treatment.

Automated order reconciliation with CrewAI teams

The `list_orders` and `search_customers` tools provide the necessary transactional data for automated audits. A compliance agent analyzes order totals while a customer service agent flags missing shipping addresses. You use `MCPServerHTTP` with a `tool_filter` to restrict agents to specific tasks. This ensures the auditing crew only accesses order histories and cannot modify eCellar inventory levels.

Setup guide

Set up eCellar 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 eCellar tools as needed.

crew.py

from crewai import Agent, Task, Crew

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

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

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

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