Automate referral attribution in LangChain

Trigger `track_conversion_purchase` or `track_conversion_signup` directly from your chain logic. Your agent evaluates the event and pushes data to Friendbuy without you writing custom API wrappers. This keeps your attribution flow tight. When a user completes a transaction, the chain executes the call, ensuring your backend records match your referral logs instantly.

Chain reward and purchase visibility

Feed the output of `list_tracked_purchases` into subsequent chain steps for real-time reporting. You can pipe this data into a summarizer or a secondary analysis tool to spot trends in your referral velocity. It removes the need for manual CSV exports. Your agent pulls the latest data, processes it, and lets you know if specific referral codes are driving high-value conversions.

Manage program configuration via MCP

Use `list_webhooks` and `get_referral_code_status` to maintain your program health within your LangChain environment. The agent monitors these endpoints to ensure your webhooks stay active and your codes remain valid. It acts as a self-healing layer for your marketing stack. If a code status flags as expired, the agent can trigger a notification or a new code generation sequence automatically.

Setup guide

Set up Friendbuy MCP in LangChain

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
langchain-mcp-adapters + langgraph packages
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install dependencies
Run pip install langchain-mcp-adapters langgraph langchain-openai. The MCP adapters package converts MCP tools into native LangChain BaseTool objects.
2

Connect via HTTP transport
Use MultiServerMCPClient with "transport": "http" pointing to your Vinkius endpoint. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Create a ReAct agent
Pass the discovered tools to create_react_agent() from LangGraph. The agent automatically routes Friendbuy tool calls through the MCP protocol.
4

Run with any LLM
Swap ChatOpenAI for ChatAnthropic, ChatGoogleGenerativeAI, or any LangChain-compatible model. The MCP tools work identically across all providers.

agent.py

from langchain_mcp_adapters.client import MultiServerMCPClient
from langgraph.prebuilt import create_react_agent
from langchain_openai import ChatOpenAI

async with MultiServerMCPClient({
    "friendbuy-mcp": {
        "transport": "http",
        "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp",
    }
}) as client:
    tools = client.get_tools()

    agent = create_react_agent(
        ChatOpenAI(model="gpt-4o"),
        tools,
    )
    result = await agent.ainvoke({
        "messages": "List recent Friendbuy transactions"
    })
    print(result["messages"][-1].content)

Common questions about Friendbuy MCP in LangChain

Use the MultiServerMCPClient to point at your Vinkius endpoint. Once initialized, call get_tools to inject all eight referral management tools directly into your agent's execution context.

Yes, but watch your rate limits. The server manages retries, but you should structure your chains to batch calls where possible to maintain throughput during peak traffic.

Your data stays private. The server uses ephemeral sessions and requires an endpoint token, meaning your referral logs and purchase history are never exposed to unauthorized processes.

LangChain handles the error based on your agent's recovery logic. You can configure the chain to retry the tool call or log the failure to your observability platform.

It does. You can combine this MCP server with other data sources in a single chain to correlate referral performance with customer support tickets or inventory levels.
