How to Use the HetrixTools MCP in Google ADK

Q: How do I configure the HetrixTools integration with Google ADK?

Install google-adk via pip. Initialize a McpToolset using StreamableHttpServerParameters with your MCP server URL. Pass that toolset to your LlmAgent under the tools parameter.

Q: Can Google ADK check my HetrixTools API usage?

Your agent calls getaccountusage to retrieve current resource consumption statistics. This prevents the agent from burning through your monthly API limits during heavy diagnostic runs.

Q: How does the agent handle HetrixTools bulk reports in Google ADK?

The agent uses listbulkreports to grab all generated system reports. It can then feed those reports into Gemini to summarize weekly infrastructure performance across your organization.

Q: Does the agent need specific IDs to create new HetrixTools monitors?

Yes. The agent runs listcontactlists to find the correct notification targets. It then builds a JSON payload with that ID and sends it to adduptimemonitor.

Feed HetrixTools infrastructure data into your Google ADK agents to fix downtime before customers notice.

Perplexity

Map network health with Gemini

The `list_uptime_reports` MCP tool extracts detailed historical uptime data for any specific monitor. Your Google ADK agent pulls this raw performance data and cross-references it with your existing BigQuery logs. You see exactly when the network dropped. If a server goes offline, the agent hits the `list_uptime_monitors` endpoint to check the current status of the entire fleet. Gemini's massive context window handles the entire JSON response without truncating your node list.

Stop email blocking via MCP Server

The `list_blacklist_monitors` tool exposes your entire inventory of tracked IPs and domains. Your agent reads the list to identify which assets are currently flagged by spam filters. It gives you a clear view of your deliverability health. When you deploy a new mail server, the agent runs `check_domain_blacklist` to verify its reputation. If the domain is dirty, the agent flags it in Vertex AI before you start sending production traffic.

Control node maintenance states

The `set_maintenance_mode` tool changes the alert behavior for specific monitors. Your agent toggles this to mode 3 right before a scheduled Google Cloud deployment to stop the on-call pager from firing. Once the deployment finishes, the agent switches the mode back to 1. If an old node is permanently retired, the agent runs `delete_uptime_monitor` to clean up your HetrixTools dashboard automatically.

Setup guide

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