How to Use the MRPLN MCP in CrewAI

Q: How do I expose MRPLN tools to CrewAI?

Install crewaitools via pip. You can pass the HTTP URL directly into the mcps array when defining your Agent. The framework handles the transport layer automatically.

Q: Can I restrict which MRPLN tools an agent sees?

Yes. Import MCPServerHTTP from crewai.mcp and use the toolfilter parameter. This lets you give one agent access to database reads while restricting write tools to a moderator agent.

Q: How does the crew handle failed SMS deliveries?

If sendsmsmessage returns an error, the executing agent logs it in shared memory. A supervisor agent can read that failure and assign a different agent to try emailing the customer instead.

Q: Can I update customer records autonomously?

A designated data-entry agent can use the updatecustomer tool. You just need to prompt it with strict rules on how to format the JSON payload before it executes the write command.

Perplexity

Delegate Customer Research to Agents

The `list_customers` tool allows your designated research agent to scan the entire manufacturing lead database. It identifies accounts that have not ordered materials in the last quarter. The agent stores these IDs in the crew's shared memory. An analysis agent then picks up those IDs and runs the `get_customer` tool on each one. It extracts historical order volumes and prepares a target list for the outreach agent. Nobody has to manually export CSV files ever again.

Analyze Tactics with CrewAI

The `list_tactics` tool fetches every active marketing initiative your factory is running. A data-focused agent reviews the list and isolates the campaigns tied to high-margin equipment sales. It then executes `get_tactic_performance` to pull the hard numbers. A manager agent reviews these metrics and decides whether to kill underperforming campaigns or double down on the winners.

Execute Autonomous Outreach via MCP Server

The `list_waba_templates` tool gives your communication agent the exact formats required by Meta. When a production delay hits, the agent finds the compliance-approved template for scheduling changes. It immediately triggers `send_whatsapp_message` to the affected clients. The crew handles the crisis communication autonomously, letting your actual human staff focus on fixing the broken assembly line.

Setup guide

Set up MRPLN 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 MRPLN tools as needed.

crew.py

from crewai import Agent, Task, Crew

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

task = Task(
    description="List recent MRPLN 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="MRPLN Analyst",
        goal="Access and analyze MRPLN data via MCP.",
        backstory="Expert analyst with direct MRPLN access.",
        tools=mcp_tools,
    )

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

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