Direct file management in Google ADK

Your agents can now interact with your storage directly using `list_folder` and `get_file_metadata`. This allows your Gemini-powered agents to inspect files before performing any actions. Use `move_file` or `copy_file` to reorganize your data buckets. It works natively within your existing Google Cloud environment, keeping your workflows unified.

Manage enterprise access and security

Control your environment using `create_permission` and `list_permissions` to audit access in real-time. Your agent handles the heavy lifting of checking who has access to what. Add or update users with `create_user` and `update_user` tools. This ensures your security posture remains consistent as your team grows.

Trigger events from storage

Configure your storage responses using `create_webhook` to inform your downstream Google Cloud services. This keeps your logic centralized. Check your active processes using `list_automations` to verify that your workflows are firing correctly. It provides the transparency needed for enterprise-grade operations.

Setup guide

Set up Files.com Alternative 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 Files.com Alternative 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="Files.com Alternative_agent",
    model="gemini-2.0-flash",
    instruction="You have access to Files.com Alternative tools via MCP.",
    tools=mcp_tools,
)
