How to Use the Lob MCP in Google ADK
Connect Gemini models to the physical world by sending mail and checks directly from your Google ADK enterprise workflows.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Lob MCP to Google ADK
Create your Vinkius account to connect Lob to Google ADK and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Clean address databases using Google ADK and Lob
The Lob MCP Server provides `verify_us_address` and `autocomplete_us_address` to clean up address records directly from your enterprise data pipelines. Your Gemini agent pulls raw customer records from BigQuery and formats them using these tools. Because Gemini handles massive context windows, you can feed thousands of messy address rows into the model at once. The agent processes the batch, calls the verification tools, and writes the standardized data back to your cloud database.
Trigger physical mail campaigns from cloud data
The `create_postcard` and `create_letter` tools let your Google ADK agent send physical mail based on customer behavior. The agent analyzes user activity logs to decide when to print and mail a targeted postcard. Use `create_template` to store your HTML designs. The agent dynamically pulls user data from your Vertex AI pipelines, populates the template variables, and dispatches the mail piece without manual intervention using the MCP protocol.
Automate billing and check printing from Google ADK
The `create_bank_account` and `create_check` tools enable your agent to run automated accounts payable workflows. The agent verifies vendor information, registers the bank details, and mails the physical check. You can track the status of these payments by calling `list_checks` or `get_check`. This allows your enterprise agents to handle end-to-end billing cycles while maintaining a clear audit trail in your Google Cloud console.
Set up Lob MCP in Google ADK
Prerequisites
- Python 3.10+ installed
-
google-adkpackage (pip install google-adk) - Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token
- 1
Install Google ADK
Run
pip install google-adkto install the Agent Development Kit. MCP support is included via theMcpToolsetclass. - 2
Connect via SSE transport
Use
McpToolset.from_server()withSseServerParamspointing to your Vinkius endpoint. Replace[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]with your token from cloud.vinkius.com. - 3
Create an LlmAgent
Pass the returned
mcp_toolslist directly toLlmAgent(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 Lob tools in your ADK agent.
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="Lob_agent",
model="gemini-2.0-flash",
instruction="You have access to Lob tools via MCP.",
tools=mcp_tools,
