How to Use the WorkWave MCP in CrewAI
Run autonomous WorkWave operations with CrewAI's multi-agent framework.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect WorkWave MCP to CrewAI
Create your Vinkius account to connect WorkWave to CrewAI and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Automate Service Order Updates
Set up a team to manage job flow. One agent can read the current state using `get_order_details`, while another uses `update_order_status` to transition it from 'Pending' to 'InProgress.' A third agent monitors the process, ensuring the status change was successful and logging the outcome.
Analyze Client Accounts and Staffing
Delegate tasks across specialized agents. Agent A calls `get_account_details` to research a customer's history, and Agent B uses `list_field_employees` to cross-reference available technicians. The crew shares this memory: the analysis agent sees both the account data and the staffing list simultaneously.
Inventory and Location Management
Need a full job picture? The team can check `list_service_equipment` for assets needed on site, and `list_service_locations` for physical addresses. This allows the crew to autonomously verify that both the materials and the destination exist before initiating any action.
