How to Use the Troops MCP in Google ADK
Build enterprise HR agents on Google Cloud using the Google ADK.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Troops MCP to Google ADK
Create your Vinkius account to connect Troops to Google ADK and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Managing Candidate Data with MCP Server
Agents register new talent through `create_candidate` and pull details with `get_candidate`. Since this integrates natively with BigQuery, candidate data flows directly into your existing enterprise data lake. The Google ADK models can reason over massive context windows (1M+ tokens), meaning the agent keeps track of deep historical notes on every profile.
Structuring Job Offers in the Google ADK
Need to open a new role? Call `create_job` to define it. You can also run `list_jobs`, filtering by status, keeping your job board records accurate. The tools act directly on your BigQuery structured data. This means you don't just list jobs; you update the source of truth for all employment opportunities.
Completing HR Workflows via MCP Server
The agent can manage payments and contracts by calling `submit_timesheet` and then `generate_contract`. This covers everything from hours worked to the final signed agreement. The Google ADK makes this robust because it supports complex, long-running reasoning across multiple steps.
