Chain loyalty events into your LangChain runs

`send_events` acts as the entry point for feeding telemetry directly into your LangChain run context. When a user performs an action, your agent captures the event data, feeds it to this tool, and passes the output to the next step in your chain. By routing these events directly, you build chains that react to customer behaviors in real-time. LangSmith traces every step, showing you the exact event payload and tool response without any guesswork.

Validate and lock points in LangChain chains

`hold_points` reserves a specific point balance during checkout sequences before your agent triggers the final order placement. Your LangChain agent checks the point balance first, holds the points, and then proceeds with the transaction loop. This prevents double-spending issues while keeping your agent stateless. If the transaction fails downstream, the hold expires automatically in 10 minutes, keeping your balance ledger clean.

Track orders with this MCP Server

`track_order` finalizes point redemptions and records the transaction history directly after a successful purchase. This MCP Server lets your LangChain client close the loop on checkout tasks, updating the loyalty ledger instantly. You pass the order details from your previous chain step directly into this tool. It processes the reward rules, updates the customer profile, and returns the updated point balance in a single execution.

Setup guide

Set up Gameball Alternative 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 Gameball Alternative 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({
    "gameball-alternative-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 Gameball Alternative transactions"
    })
    print(result["messages"][-1].content)
