Autonomous message monitoring

Assign a monitor agent to watch for new inquiries via `list_conversations`. It identifies relevant threads while ignoring noise. This agent filters incoming traffic so your response crew only works on high-value tasks. It keeps your operations focused and efficient.

Collaborative response teams

Let your research agent use `get_messages` to gather context for a customer issue. Then, the moderator agent uses `send_message` to reply. Because they share memory, the moderator knows exactly what the researcher found. You get cohesive, context-aware responses without any human intervention.

Persona and creative management

Use `list_personas` so your agents can pick the right voice for the situation. It ensures the response matches the specific customer's needs. Your agents can also audit `list_message_creative` to ensure they use approved assets. It keeps your brand voice consistent across every single interaction.

Setup guide

Set up Messenger 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 Messenger tools as needed.

crew.py

from crewai import Agent, Task, Crew

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

task = Task(
    description="List recent Messenger 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

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

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="Messenger Analyst",
        goal="Access and analyze Messenger data via MCP.",
        backstory="Expert analyst with direct Messenger access.",
        tools=mcp_tools,
    )

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