How to Use the Franchimp MCP in Google ADK

Q: How does Google ADK connect to the Franchimp MCP Server?

You instantiate an McpToolset with your Vinkius server URL and pass it to your LlmAgent. Google ADK handles the tool discovery, so your Gemini-powered agent can use tools like getfranchisedetails immediately.

Q: Can I filter which Franchimp tools my Google agent can access?

Yes, the McpToolset constructor in Google ADK has a toolnames filter. You can expose only specific tools, like searchfranchisors, to an agent, restricting its capabilities for safety or focus.

Q: How can I use Franchimp with Google ADK to find operators in a specific state?

Your agent can fetch the full list using listmultiunitoperators and then call getfranchiseedetails on each one to find their location. With Gemini's large context, this is a fast and effective way to filter a huge dataset.

Connect Google ADK agents to Franchimp data. Run enterprise-scale franchise analysis right inside your Google Cloud environment.

Perplexity

Analyze the Entire Franchise Market

Pull the complete list of franchisors with `list_franchises`. With Google ADK and Gemini's huge context window, your agent can hold this entire list in memory, then reason over it to find patterns or identify targets. From there, you can have your agent use `get_investment_stats` for every single franchise and pipe the results directly into a BigQuery table. This isn't just searching; it's building a market-wide dataset for your own analysis.

Score Leads with your Google ADK MCP Server

Your agent can gather training data by finding operators with `list_multi_unit_operators` and pulling their history with `get_franchisee_details`. It gets all the raw data you need to build a model. Once you have the data in BigQuery, you can use Vertex AI to train a lead scoring model. Your Google ADK agent then uses that model to score new leads it finds with the Franchimp tools, all within the same GCP project.

Cross-Reference FDDs at Scale

Use `search_franchisors` to find a set of competitors. Your agent can then systematically fetch all their disclosure documents using `list_fdd_documents`. The real power comes when you combine this with other Google tools. Your agent can drop the FDDs into a Cloud Storage bucket and trigger a Cloud Function to parse them, comparing terms side-by-side. The Franchimp tools provide the source material for your entire pipeline.

Setup guide

Set up Franchimp 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 Franchimp 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="Franchimp_agent",
    model="gemini-2.0-flash",
    instruction="You have access to Franchimp tools via MCP.",
    tools=mcp_tools,
)

Because the data is live. A CSV is a static snapshot, but this MCP gives your agent real-time access to the latest franchisor data and FDD filings. Your analysis is always current.

Franchimp only sees requests for franchisor and franchisee financial or contact info. The Vinkius server that runs it is isolated and ephemeral. All communication is encrypted and access is controlled by your single Vinkius token, keeping your GCP credentials separate and secure.
