About Node-RED MCP Server
Connect your Node-RED instance to any AI agent to orchestrate your event-driven applications and IoT workflows through natural language.
Google ADK natively supports Node-RED as an MCP tool provider. declare Vinkius Edge URL and the framework handles discovery, validation, and execution automatically. Combine 11 tools with Gemini's long-context reasoning for complex multi-tool workflows, with production-ready session management and evaluation built in.
What you can do
- Flow Management — Retrieve, create, update, or delete entire flow configurations and individual tabs using
get_flows,add_flow, anddelete_flow. - Node Operations — List all installed node modules and dynamically install or remove npm packages with
install_nodeandremove_node. - System Diagnostics — Monitor runtime health, including OS details, Node.js version, and memory usage via
get_diagnostics. - Configuration Control — Fetch runtime settings and user information to understand your environment's constraints.
The Node-RED MCP Server exposes 11 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Google ADK in under two minutes — credentials fully managed, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

Why Use Google ADK with the Node-RED MCP Server
Google ADK provides unique advantages when paired with Node-RED through the Model Context Protocol.
Google ADK natively supports MCP tool servers. declare a tool provider and the framework handles discovery, validation, and execution
Built on Gemini models, ADK provides long-context reasoning ideal for complex multi-tool workflows with Node-RED
Production-ready features like session management, evaluation, and deployment come built-in. not bolted on
Seamless integration with Google Cloud services means you can combine Node-RED tools with BigQuery, Vertex AI, and Cloud Functions
Node-RED + Google ADK Use Cases
Practical scenarios where Google ADK combined with the Node-RED MCP Server delivers measurable value.
Enterprise data agents: ADK agents query Node-RED and cross-reference results with internal databases for comprehensive analysis
Multi-modal workflows: combine Node-RED tool responses with Gemini's vision and language capabilities in a single agent
Automated compliance checks: schedule ADK agents to query Node-RED regularly and flag policy violations or configuration drift
Internal tool platforms: build self-service agent platforms where teams connect their own MCP servers including Node-RED
Example Prompts for Node-RED in Google ADK
Ready-to-use prompts you can give your Google ADK agent to start working with Node-RED immediately.
"Show me all active flows in my Node-RED instance."
"Check the system diagnostics and memory usage."
"Install the 'node-red-node-email' module."
