List All Available Notebooks

To know what notebooks exist, your agent calls `list_notebooks`. This function returns a list of notebook IDs. You can't get anything else until you have this initial inventory. This is the critical first step for any multi-step process that needs to access multiple separate note containers.

Create and Modify Notecards

Need to capture new thoughts? Use `create_notecard`. If you find a typo or need more detail, the agent can call `update_notecard` using the specific notecard ID. It's designed for persistent data modifications. The system makes sure that both creating and updating are handled atomically to maintain data integrity.

Search Notes Within Enterprise Notebooks

Don't waste time listing every card. Use `search_notecards` when you know which notebook ID contains the info. The tool scopes the search, giving you only the relevant results. This mechanism lets your agent focus its retrieval power on a defined area of data, saving processing steps.

Setup guide

Set up Zoho Notebook MCP in Google ADK

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
google-adk package (pip install google-adk)
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install Google ADK

Run pip install google-adk to install the Agent Development Kit. MCP support is included via the McpToolset class.
2

Connect via SSE transport

Use McpToolset.from_server() with SseServerParams pointing to your Vinkius endpoint. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Create an LlmAgent

Pass the returned mcp_tools list directly to LlmAgent(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 Zoho Notebook tools in your ADK agent.

agent.py

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="Zoho Notebook_agent",
    model="gemini-2.0-flash",
    instruction="You have access to Zoho Notebook tools via MCP.",
    tools=mcp_tools,
)
