Automated Communication Pipelines

Connect your email flow directly into your reasoning chains. You can use `list_messages` to fetch unread threads and pipe the content immediately into a summarization agent. This setup allows your agent to decide when to trigger `send_message` based on the output of previous steps. It turns static inbox data into dynamic, actionable logic.

Unified Calendar Management

Use `list_calendars` to pull your current schedule into the agent's memory. Once the agent knows the available slots, it uses `create_event` to book meetings without manual intervention. Everything stays within the chain. You can trace every `delete_event` call via LangSmith to see exactly how the agent handled your scheduling conflicts.

Contact Data Integration

Feed your address book into the agent's context using `list_contacts`. It maps names to email addresses automatically, so the agent knows exactly who it's talking to. When a new lead reaches out, the agent invokes `create_contact` to store their info. It keeps your CRM updated without you lifting a finger.

Setup guide

Set up Nylas MCP in LangChain

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
langchain-mcp-adapters + langgraph packages
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install dependencies
Run pip install langchain-mcp-adapters langgraph langchain-openai. The MCP adapters package converts MCP tools into native LangChain BaseTool objects.
2

Connect via HTTP transport
Use MultiServerMCPClient with "transport": "http" pointing to your Vinkius endpoint. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Create a ReAct agent
Pass the discovered tools to create_react_agent() from LangGraph. The agent automatically routes Nylas tool calls through the MCP protocol.
4

Run with any LLM
Swap ChatOpenAI for ChatAnthropic, ChatGoogleGenerativeAI, or any LangChain-compatible model. The MCP tools work identically across all providers.

agent.py

from langchain_mcp_adapters.client import MultiServerMCPClient
from langgraph.prebuilt import create_react_agent
from langchain_openai import ChatOpenAI

async with MultiServerMCPClient({
    "nylas-mcp": {
        "transport": "http",
        "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp",
    }
}) as client:
    tools = client.get_tools()

    agent = create_react_agent(
        ChatOpenAI(model="gpt-4o"),
        tools,
    )
    result = await agent.ainvoke({
        "messages": "List recent Nylas transactions"
    })
    print(result["messages"][-1].content)
