How to Use the UpCloud MCP in Google ADK
Run enterprise cloud operations with Google ADK on UpCloud MCP Server.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect UpCloud MCP to Google ADK
Create your Vinkius account to connect UpCloud 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.
Provisioning Complex Infrastructure
Building a multi-tier app? You can provision the whole stack. First, you make an SDN private network using `create_network`, then launch servers with `create_server`, and finally protect it all with a firewall rule via `create_firewall_rule`. The long context window of Gemini models allows your agent to hold the entire deployment plan in memory while executing these steps, keeping track of dependencies across multiple tools.
Retrieving and Analyzing Account Data
The agent can gather all necessary account data. Need host details? Use `get_host`. Want to see what IPs are available? Call `list_ips`. Since your workflow involves BigQuery, the Google ADK lets you pass these retrieved metrics—like listing routers (`list_routers`)—directly for further analysis in your data warehouse.
Managing Identity and Access
Security starts with control. You can create new API tokens using `create_api_token` or list all existing ones with `list_api_tokens`. If you need to change who has access, you use the specific tools provided. The Google ADK's enterprise focus means it treats every token and credential (`get_kubernetes_kubeconfig`) as a critical asset requiring detailed context-aware handling.
Set up UpCloud MCP in Google ADK
Prerequisites
- Python 3.10+ installed
-
google-adkpackage (pip install google-adk) - Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token
- 1
Install Google ADK
Run
pip install google-adkto install the Agent Development Kit. MCP support is included via theMcpToolsetclass. - 2
Connect via SSE transport
Use
McpToolset.from_server()withSseServerParamspointing to your Vinkius endpoint. Replace[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]with your token from cloud.vinkius.com. - 3
Create an LlmAgent
Pass the returned
mcp_toolslist directly toLlmAgent(tools=mcp_tools). The ADK maps each MCP tool to a native Gemini function call — no manual schema definitions required. - 4
Run with any Gemini model
The agent works with any Gemini model (
gemini-2.0-flash,gemini-2.5-pro, etc.). Copy the full example on the right to get started with UpCloud tools in your ADK agent.
from google.adk.agents import LlmAgent
from google.adk.tools.mcp_tool.mcp_toolset import McpToolset
from google.adk.tools.mcp_tool.mcp_session_manager import SseServerParams
# Connect to the MCP via SSE
mcp_tools, exit_stack = await McpToolset.from_server(
connection_params=SseServerParams(
url="https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
)
)
# Create your agent with auto-discovered tools
agent = LlmAgent(
name="UpCloud_agent",
model="gemini-2.0-flash",
instruction="You have access to UpCloud tools via MCP.",
tools=mcp_tools,
