Chain lead discovery and verification

Feed output from `search_domain_emails` directly into `verify_email_address` within your LangChain agent. Your chain handles the logic, identifying valid contacts without manual intervention. This prevents bad data from hitting your CRM. By automating the handoff between discovery and validation, your agent keeps your outreach list clean and ready for action.

Monitor your outreach credits

Use `get_account_usage` to trigger alerts inside your agent when your credit balance drops. This MCP Server ensures your pipeline never stalls due to an empty quota. LangChain agents can check these limits before running a massive search. It’s a simple gatekeeper that protects your workflow from unexpected disruptions.

Manage your leads programmatically

Sync Hunter lead lists with your database using `list_saved_leads` and `get_lead_details`. Your agent can now keep your CRM updated with the latest contact intel automatically. Updating records is straightforward with `update_lead_info`. Your agents maintain accuracy across your entire sales stack without a single manual edit.

Setup guide

Set up Hunter 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 Hunter 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({
    "hunter-alternative-mcp": {
        "transport": "http",

    }
}) as client:
    tools = client.get_tools()

    agent = create_react_agent(
        ChatOpenAI(model="gpt-4o"),
        tools,
    )
    result = await agent.ainvoke({
        "messages": "List recent Hunter transactions"
