How to Use the UpGuard MCP in LangChain
Build Multi-Step Security Agents with UpGuard for LangChain.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect UpGuard MCP to LangChain
Create your Vinkius account to connect UpGuard to LangChain and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Sequence Risk Checks into Chains
You can start by calling `list_account_risks` to get a high-level overview. The output of this call then becomes the input for a subsequent tool, like running `get_vendor` against a specific vendor flagged as risky. This allows your agent to build deep reasoning pipelines. It doesn't just run checks; it determines *which* check comes next and in what order based on intermediate findings from the MCP Server.
Audit Identity Breaches Step-by-Step
The agent first runs `list_identity_breaches` to see recent incidents. Next, it can call `list_user_risks` using identifiers found in the breach list. This chaining mechanism ensures you get a complete picture of impact. The system processes these results sequentially, allowing your multi-step LangChain agent to form an actionable report.
Map Out All Monitored Assets
Start by using `list_vendors` to retrieve all monitored partners. Then, you can iterate through that list and call `list_vendor_risks` for each one. This systematic approach ensures full coverage of your supply chain risk. The resulting data flows into the next step in your LangChain workflow.
Set up UpGuard MCP in LangChain
Prerequisites
- Python 3.10+ installed
-
langchain-mcp-adapters+langgraphpackages - 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 LangChainBaseToolobjects. - 2
Connect via HTTP transport
Use
MultiServerMCPClientwith"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 UpGuard tool calls through the MCP protocol. - 4
Run with any LLM
Swap
ChatOpenAIforChatAnthropic,ChatGoogleGenerativeAI, or any LangChain-compatible model. The MCP tools work identically across all providers.
