What is the COR MCP Server?
Connect your COR account to any AI agent and take full control of your professional services project management and profitability orchestration through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Project Portfolio Orchestration — List all active projects, retrieve detailed high-fidelity status metadata, and access profitability metrics programmatically
- Task Pipeline Intelligence — Query tasks for any project, retrieve detailed technical metadata, and stay on top of your team's operational delivery in real-time
- Profitability Monitoring — Access high-fidelity financial insights and project health metrics to ensure sustainable growth directly through your agent
- Time Tracking Discovery — Access recorded technical time entries to understand workload distribution and project efficiency across your organization
- Resource Architecture — List team members, teams, and user profiles to understand and orchestrate your organizational structure programmatically
- Client Database Access — Query the complete high-fidelity directory of client organizations to maintain perfect contextual alignment for every project
How it works
1. Subscribe to this server
2. Retrieve your Personal API Token from your COR account (Settings > API Tokens)
3. Start managing your professional services growth from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client
No more manual status updates or missing profitability gaps. Your AI acts as your dedicated project coordinator and profitability architect.
Who is this for?
- Project Managers — instantly retrieve task lists and project statuses using natural language commands without leaving your creative workspace
- Agency Leads — monitor high-fidelity profitability metrics and team utilization to ensure healthy business operations
- Operations Managers — verify technical time logs and team assignments to optimize resource allocation through simple AI queries

Why CrewAI?
When paired with CrewAI, COR becomes a first-class tool in your multi-agent workflows. Each agent in the crew can call COR 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
COR in CrewAI
COR and 3,400+ other MCP servers. One platform. One governance layer.
Teams that connect COR to CrewAI through Vinkius don't need to source, host, or maintain individual MCP servers. Every tool call runs inside a hardened runtime with credential isolation, DLP, and a signed audit chain.
Raw MCP | Vinkius | |
|---|---|---|
| Server catalog | Find and host yourself | 3,400+ managed |
| Infrastructure | Self-hosted | Sandboxed V8 isolates |
| Credential handling | Plaintext in config | Vault + runtime injection |
| Data loss prevention | None | Configurable DLP policies |
| Kill switch | None | Global instant shutdown |
| Financial circuit breakers | None | Per-server limits + alerts |
| Audit trail | None | Ed25519 signed logs |
| SIEM log streaming | None | Splunk, Datadog, Webhook |
| Honeytokens | None | Canary alerts on leak |
| Custom domains | Not applicable | DNS challenge verified |
| GDPR compliance | Manual effort | Automated purge + export |
Why teams choose Vinkius for COR in CrewAI
The COR MCP Server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS — a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts. All 13 tools execute in hardened sandboxes optimized for native MCP execution.
Your AI agents in CrewAI only access the data you authorize, with DLP that blocks sensitive information from ever reaching the model, kill switch for instant shutdown, and up to 60% token savings. Enterprise-grade infrastructure, zero maintenance.

How Vinkius secures
COR for CrewAI
Every tool call from CrewAI to the COR MCP Server is protected by DLP redaction, cryptographic audit chains, V8 sandbox isolation, kill switch, and financial circuit breakers.
Frequently asked questions
How do I find my COR API Token?
Log in to your account, navigate to Personal Settings > API Tokens, and generate a new high-fidelity Personal API Token.
Can I check project profitability via AI?
Yes! The get_cor_project tool allows your agent to retrieve high-fidelity profitability metrics and financial health data for any specific project.
How do I list my organization's teams?
Use the list_cor_teams tool to retrieve the complete high-fidelity directory of teams along with their unique identifiers for precise orchestration.
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.
