Perplexity

Collaborative planetary defense

Assign agents to use `get_neo_browse` and `get_neo_lookup` to build a shared dataset of known hazards. Each agent contributes to the intelligence pool without duplicating work. This specialization allows your crew to focus on different sectors of the catalog. One agent maintains the list while another performs the analysis on high-risk objects.

Autonomous threat detection

Let your monitoring crew use `get_neo_feed` to watch for approaching objects 24/7. When an object crosses a threshold, the crew escalates the finding to your analysis agent. This setup works without your input. The NASA Asteroids — Near-Earth Objects & Planetary Defense MCP Server provides the raw input, and your crew handles the response.

Analyze atmospheric data

Task your research agent with checking `get_fireballs` to identify recent atmospheric events. It cross-references these findings with known asteroid paths to update your defense models. This keeps your crew's knowledge current. It ensures that your automated response is based on the most recent sensor data available worldwide.

Setup guide

Set up NASA Asteroids — Near-Earth Objects & Planetary Defense 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 NASA Asteroids — Near-Earth Objects & Planetary Defense tools as needed.

crew.py

from crewai import Agent, Task, Crew

agent = Agent(
    role="NASA Asteroids — Near-Earth Objects & Planetary Defense Analyst",
    goal="Access and analyze NASA Asteroids — Near-Earth Objects & Planetary Defense data via MCP.",
    backstory="Expert analyst with direct NASA Asteroids — Near-Earth Objects & Planetary Defense access.",
    mcps=[
        "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    ],
)

task = Task(
    description="List recent NASA Asteroids — Near-Earth Objects & Planetary Defense 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="NASA Asteroids — Near-Earth Objects & Planetary Defense Analyst",
        goal="Access and analyze NASA Asteroids — Near-Earth Objects & Planetary Defense data via MCP.",
        backstory="Expert analyst with direct NASA Asteroids — Near-Earth Objects & Planetary Defense access.",
        tools=mcp_tools,
    )

    task = Task(
        description="List recent NASA Asteroids — Near-Earth Objects & Planetary Defense transactions",
        agent=agent,
        expected_output="A summary of recent activity",
    )

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

Common questions about NASA Asteroids — Near-Earth Objects & Planetary Defense MCP in CrewAI

Pass the server URL to the agent's MCP list. The framework handles the connection and exposes the tools to your crew members.

Yes, use the tool filter in the MCP server configuration. You can restrict specific agents to only use the tools they need for their assigned role.

CrewAI uses shared memory for agent collaboration. Once one agent retrieves data from the NASA Asteroids — Near-Earth Objects & Planetary Defense MCP Server, the others can act on it.

Your crew will log the error and can trigger a fallback routine. You define the behavior for when the data feed is temporarily unavailable.

All traffic is encrypted and uses ephemeral tokens. The server architecture ensures that only your authorized crew agents can query the asteroid database.
