How can my AI retrieve the list of guests who connected to the WiFi at a specific property?

Simply use the `get_property_guests` tool providing the specific property ID. Your agent will instantly compile a list of all guests captured via the captive portal, including their names, emails, and phone numbers.

Can I automatically check if all my routers are online across my portfolio?

Yes! Ask the agent to run the `check_router_health` action. It will scan all your StayFi routers in real-time and report back any offline devices, ensuring your guest networks are always functional.

Is it possible to track the total number of emails collected this month?

Absolutely. By utilizing the `get_collection_stats` tool, your agent can instantly fetch the email collection analytics across all properties, giving you an immediate view of your marketing data growth.

Why Use CrewAI with the StayFi MCP Server

CrewAI Multi-Agent Orchestration Framework provides unique advantages when paired with StayFi through the Model Context Protocol.

Multi-agent collaboration lets you decompose complex workflows into specialized roles, one agent researches, another analyzes, a third generates reports, each with access to MCP tools

CrewAI's native MCP integration requires zero adapter code: pass Vinkius Edge URL directly in the `mcps` parameter and agents auto-discover every available tool at runtime

Built-in task delegation and shared memory mean agents can pass context between steps without manual state management, enabling multi-hop reasoning across tool calls

Sequential and hierarchical crew patterns map naturally to real-world workflows: enumerate subdomains → analyze DNS history → check WHOIS records → compile findings into actionable reports

StayFi + CrewAI Use Cases

Practical scenarios where CrewAI combined with the StayFi MCP Server delivers measurable value.

Automated multi-step research: a reconnaissance agent queries StayFi for raw data, then a second analyst agent cross-references findings and flags anomalies. all without human handoff

Scheduled intelligence reports: set up a crew that periodically queries StayFi, analyzes trends over time, and generates executive briefings in markdown or PDF format

Multi-source enrichment pipelines: chain StayFi tools with other MCP servers in the same crew, letting agents correlate data across multiple providers in a single workflow

Compliance and audit automation: a compliance agent queries StayFi against predefined policy rules, generates deviation reports, and routes findings to the appropriate team

Example Prompts for StayFi in CrewAI

Ready-to-use prompts you can give your CrewAI agent to start working with StayFi immediately.

"Show all guests captured via WiFi at our beach property this week."

"Are all StayFi routers online and functioning correctly?"

"What is our email collection rate across all properties for the current month?"

StayFi + CrewAI FAQ

Common questions about integrating StayFi MCP Server with CrewAI.

How does CrewAI discover and connect to MCP tools?

CrewAI connects to MCP servers lazily. when the crew starts, each agent resolves its MCP URLs and fetches the tool catalog via the standard tools/list method. This means tools are always fresh and reflect the server's current capabilities. No tool schemas need to be hardcoded.

Can different agents in the same crew use different MCP servers?

Yes. Each agent has its own mcps list, so you can assign specific servers to specific roles. For example, a reconnaissance agent might use a domain intelligence server while an analysis agent uses a vulnerability database server.

What happens when an MCP tool call fails during a crew run?

CrewAI wraps tool failures as context for the agent. The LLM receives the error message and can decide to retry with different parameters, fall back to a different tool, or mark the task as partially complete. This resilience is critical for production workflows.

Can CrewAI agents call multiple MCP tools in parallel?

CrewAI agents execute tool calls sequentially within a single reasoning step. However, you can run multiple agents in parallel using process=Process.parallel, each calling different MCP tools concurrently. This is ideal for workflows where separate data sources need to be queried simultaneously.

Can I run CrewAI crews on a schedule (cron)?

Yes. CrewAI crews are standard Python scripts, so you can invoke them via cron, Airflow, Celery, or any task scheduler. The crew.kickoff() method runs synchronously by default, making it straightforward to integrate into existing pipelines.
