How to Use the MainWP MCP in CrewAI

Q: How do CrewAI agents handle a failed MainWP site sync?

If syncchildsites fails, your Coordinator agent can analyze the error message. It can then delegate a troubleshooting task to another agent or log the error for human review.

Q: Can I limit which MainWP MCP Server tools a specific CrewAI agent can use?

Yes. You can use the MCPServerHTTP class from crewai.mcp and apply a toolfilter to expose only specific tools, like keeping upgradesiteresource restricted to your admin agent.

Q: How does CrewAI secure my WordPress security scan data?

Security reports generated by scannetworkmalware are kept strictly within your private CrewAI execution context. Vinkius ensures all communication with your MainWP REST API is encrypted and runs in an ephemeral sandbox.

Run a multi-agent WordPress security team in CrewAI

Stop relying on single-agent scripts to secure your network. With this MCP Server, you can assign a Security Auditor agent to run `scan_network_malware` and analyze the results. If threat signatures are found, the auditor hands the report to a DevOps agent to investigate. The DevOps agent then calls `list_site_plugins` on the affected site to find the culprit. This collaborative team handles complex security triage autonomously, keeping your sites safe while you sleep.

Autonomous update management with CrewAI agents

Let your agents coordinate update cycles. A Monitoring agent checks your network health by running `get_pending_updates_count` and compiling a list of outdated assets with `list_available_updates`. It then passes this list to a QA agent. The QA agent reviews the pending updates against known stable versions. Once verified, it instructs the System Administrator agent to run `upgrade_site_resource` to apply the updates safely.

Automated site synchronization and vulnerability audits

Keep your network data fresh with agent teamwork. A Coordinator agent starts the shift by executing `sync_child_sites` to ensure all site data is current. It then pulls the active site list using `list_child_sites`. A separate Auditor agent takes that list and runs `scan_network_vulnerabilities` on each site. This sequential workflow ensures you are never running security audits on stale or outdated site data.

Setup guide

Set up MainWP MCP in CrewAI

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
crewai package (pip install crewai)
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install CrewAI
Run pip install crewai to install the framework. MCP support is built-in via the mcps parameter.
2

Add the MCP URL to your agent
Pass your Vinkius endpoint directly to the mcps list. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com. CrewAI handles tool discovery and caching automatically.
3

Kick off your crew
Create a Crew with your agent and tasks. Call crew.kickoff() — the agent will automatically invoke MainWP tools as needed.

crew.py

from crewai import Agent, Task, Crew

agent = Agent(
    role="MainWP Analyst",
    goal="Access and analyze MainWP data via MCP.",
    backstory="Expert analyst with direct MainWP access.",
    mcps=[
        "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    ],
)

task = Task(
    description="List recent MainWP transactions",
    agent=agent,
    expected_output="A summary of recent activity",
)

crew = Crew(agents=[agent], tasks=[task])
result = crew.kickoff()
print(result)

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
crewai + crewai-tools packages
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install dependencies
Run pip install crewai crewai-tools. The MCPServerAdapter handles lifecycle management and tool conversion.
2

Connect with MCPServerAdapter
Use MCPServerAdapter as a context manager with SseServerParameters pointing to your Vinkius endpoint. The adapter automatically manages connection lifecycle.
3

Assign tools and run
Pass the returned mcp_tools to your agent's tools parameter. The adapter converts MCP tools to native BaseTool objects compatible with all CrewAI agents.

crew.py

from crewai import Agent, Task, Crew
from crewai_tools import MCPServerAdapter
from mcp import SseServerParameters

server_params = SseServerParameters(
    url="https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
)

with MCPServerAdapter(server_params) as mcp_tools:
    agent = Agent(
        role="MainWP Analyst",
        goal="Access and analyze MainWP data via MCP.",
        backstory="Expert analyst with direct MainWP access.",
        tools=mcp_tools,
    )

    task = Task(
        description="List recent MainWP transactions",
        agent=agent,
        expected_output="A summary of recent activity",
    )

    crew = Crew(agents=[agent], tasks=[task])
    result = crew.kickoff()
    print(result)
