What is the Agora MCP Server?
Connect your AI agents to Agora, the leading real-time engagement platform for video, voice, and interactive streaming. This MCP provides 10 tools to manage communication channels, orchestrate cloud recording sessions, and monitor granular usage metrics programmatically.
What you can do
- Channel Orchestration — Create and manage RTC (Real-Time Communication) channels and list active users within each session
- Cloud Recording — Start, stop, and query the status of cloud recording tasks for archival or auditing purposes
- Usage Monitoring — Retrieve detailed metrics on minutes consumed, bandwidth, and concurrent user peaks
- Project Insights — List and inspect project configurations, including AppIDs and token settings, directly from your agent
- Rule Management — Configure channel-level rules and settings to optimize the interactive experience
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Log in to the Agora Console
- Navigate to Project Management and select your active project
- Obtain your Customer ID, Customer Secret, and AppID from the console settings
- Insert your credentials into the fields below to start managing your real-time engagement workflows.
Who is this for?
- Full-Stack Developers — automate the provisioning of communication channels and recording sessions
- Live Ops Teams — monitor real-time usage peaks and system health across multiple Agora projects
- Product Managers — retrieve monthly consumption reports and user engagement data via natural language

Why CrewAI?
When paired with CrewAI, Agora becomes a first-class tool in your multi-agent workflows. Each agent in the crew can call Agora tools autonomously, one agent queries data, another analyzes results, a third compiles reports, all orchestrated through Vinkius with zero configuration overhead.
- —
Multi-agent collaboration lets you decompose complex workflows into specialized roles, one agent researches, another analyzes, a third generates reports, each with access to MCP tools
- —
CrewAI's native MCP integration requires zero adapter code: pass Vinkius Edge URL directly in the
mcpsparameter and agents auto-discover every available tool at runtime - —
Built-in task delegation and shared memory mean agents can pass context between steps without manual state management, enabling multi-hop reasoning across tool calls
- —
Sequential and hierarchical crew patterns map naturally to real-world workflows: enumerate subdomains → analyze DNS history → check WHOIS records → compile findings into actionable reports

Frequently asked questions
Can I automatically list all active users in an Agora channel?
Yes! Use the list_channel_users tool with the project AppID and the target Channel Name. Your agent will return a list of UIDs currently connected to that session.
How do I start a cloud recording session via the AI agent?
Use the start_cloud_recording tool with the necessary parameters (AppID, Channel Name, and recording config). The agent will trigger the Agora cloud recording engine and return the Resource ID and SID.
Can I monitor the total minutes consumed by my project this month?
Yes! The get_usage_metrics tool retrieves granular consumption data, including audio and video minutes, filtered by date range or project.
How does CrewAI discover and connect to MCP tools?
CrewAI connects to MCP servers lazily. when the crew starts, each agent resolves its MCP URLs and fetches the tool catalog via the standard tools/list method. This means tools are always fresh and reflect the server's current capabilities. No tool schemas need to be hardcoded.
Can different agents in the same crew use different MCP servers?
Yes. Each agent has its own mcps list, so you can assign specific servers to specific roles. For example, a reconnaissance agent might use a domain intelligence server while an analysis agent uses a vulnerability database server.
What happens when an MCP tool call fails during a crew run?
CrewAI wraps tool failures as context for the agent. The LLM receives the error message and can decide to retry with different parameters, fall back to a different tool, or mark the task as partially complete. This resilience is critical for production workflows.
Can CrewAI agents call multiple MCP tools in parallel?
CrewAI agents execute tool calls sequentially within a single reasoning step. However, you can run multiple agents in parallel using process=Process.parallel, each calling different MCP tools concurrently. This is ideal for workflows where separate data sources need to be queried simultaneously.
Can I run CrewAI crews on a schedule (cron)?
Yes. CrewAI crews are standard Python scripts, so you can invoke them via cron, Airflow, Celery, or any task scheduler. The crew.kickoff() method runs synchronously by default, making it straightforward to integrate into existing pipelines.
MCP tools not discovered
Ensure the Edge URL is correct. CrewAI connects lazily when the crew starts. check console output.
Agent not using tools
Make the task description specific. Instead of "do something", say "Use the available tools to list contacts".
Timeout errors
CrewAI has a 10s connection timeout by default. Ensure your network can reach the Edge URL.
Rate limiting or 429 errors
Vinkius enforces per-token rate limits. Check your subscription tier and request quota in the dashboard. Upgrade if you need higher throughput.
