How to Use the Wakapi (WakaTime Alternative) MCP in CrewAI

Q: Can I use Wakapi (WakaTime Alternative) with CrewAI for monitoring?

Yes. By having a dedicated monitor agent call sendheartbeats, you can continuously feed operational data back to the server, keeping track of the autonomous session's progress.

Analyze Activity Summary from MCP Server

One specialized agent can call `get_summaries` to pull a detailed summary of activity. This result gives the entire 'crew' shared memory, allowing subsequent agents to analyze the context effectively. The research agent passes this data to the analysis agent. This ensures that all roles—researcher, analyzer, actor—are working from the exact same, up-to-date operational facts.

Discover Project Scope via MCP Server

Before starting a mission, you need context. The `list_projects` tool lets your crew discover all tracked projects. This discovery phase is vital; the monitor agent uses this list to scope its watch parameters. It’s how autonomous operations ensure they never try to act on an unknown or non-existent project ID.

Track Progress with CrewAI

The entire operation tracks work by calling `send_heartbeats`. This mechanism allows the crew's actions—whether research, analysis, or action—to be logged immediately. The data is continuously fed back to Wakapi. This keeps the record clean and provides a complete audit trail for every step taken autonomously.

Setup guide

Set up Wakapi (WakaTime Alternative) 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 Wakapi (WakaTime Alternative) tools as needed.

crew.py

from crewai import Agent, Task, Crew

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

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

    task = Task(
        description="List recent Wakapi (WakaTime Alternative) transactions",
        agent=agent,
        expected_output="A summary of recent activity",
    )

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