How to Use the Recruit CRM MCP in CrewAI

Q: How do I add the Recruit CRM MCP Server to a CrewAI agent?

Install crewaitools and pass your Vinkius HTTP server URL directly into the mcps array of your Agent definition. The framework automatically discovers and registers all twelve recruitment tools for that agent to use.

Q: Can I limit which Recruit CRM tools a specific CrewAI agent can use?

Yes, you can use the MCPServerHTTP class from crewai.mcp and apply a toolfilter. This ensures your researcher agent only reads candidates while your coordinator agent handles job creation.

Deploy specialized AI agent teams to run your hiring pipeline autonomously using CrewAI and Recruit CRM.

Perplexity

Coordinate candidate sourcing crews

`list_candidates` acts as the primary data source for your sourcing crew. In CrewAI, one researcher agent can pull candidate profiles while a separate screening agent analyzes their resumes for key qualifications. This multi-agent setup passes context between members using shared memory. Instead of a single model trying to do everything, specialized agents divide and conquer your recruitment backlog.

Auto-assign applicants to open roles

`list_job_applications` exposes which candidates are currently tied to active hiring pipelines. A coordinator agent can monitor this list, spot unassigned talent, and route them to the right interviewer via this MCP Server. You can configure the crew to run sequentially or hierarchically. A manager agent oversees the entire process, stepping in to re-route tasks if an agent fails to match a candidate to a job.

Keep client contacts updated via CrewAI MCP Server

`list_contacts` lets your client-facing agents pull account manager details to sync communication history. When a client company updates their hiring requirements, your crew can immediately update the CRM records. Using the `tool_filter` option, you can restrict your communication agents so they only see contact tools. That keeps them from accidentally modifying job postings or candidate profiles.

Setup guide

Set up Recruit CRM 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 Recruit CRM tools as needed.

crew.py

from crewai import Agent, Task, Crew

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

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

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

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