What is the HID Origo MCP Server?
Connect your HID Origo platform to any AI agent and take full control of your cloud-based identity and physical access management through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Mobile Identity Oversight — List and retrieve details for all issued mobile identities (digital cards) and monitor their activation status.
- User & Group Management — Access lists of users and identity groups defined in your tenant to ensure correct access policies.
- Enrollment Automation — Send enrollment invitations for mobile identities directly from the chat interface.
- Reader & Hardware Monitoring — List and monitor the status of IoT readers and door controllers connected to your organization.
- Credential Tracking — Manage both physical and digital credentials linked to your users in a unified view.
- Security Auditing — Retrieve system audit logs to monitor administrative actions and access events.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your HID Origo Client ID, Client Secret, and Organization ID
- Start managing your access control from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
No more navigating complex management portals for simple identity lookups. Your AI assistant acts as a dedicated Access Control Administrator or Security Specialist.
Who is this for?
- Facility Managers — instantly check the status of readers and mobile credentials across multiple sites.
- Security Engineers — automate the auditing of access events and identify enrollment bottlenecks.
- IT Admins — streamline the process of inviting users to mobile identity enrollment during onboarding.

Why CrewAI?
When paired with CrewAI, HID Origo becomes a first-class tool in your multi-agent workflows. Each agent in the crew can call HID Origo 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
How do I find my HID Origo Client ID and Secret?
Log in to the HID Origo Management Portal, navigate to the System Accounts section, and create a new system account. You will be provided with a Client ID and Client Secret for that account.
What is the Organization ID?
The Organization ID is a unique UUID that identifies your company in the HID Origo cloud. You can find it in the Management Portal under the Organization settings or profile section.
Can I send mobile identity invitations via the AI agent?
Yes! Use the create_enrollment_invitation tool. You must provide a JSON string containing the userId and the partNumber for the mobile identity you wish to issue.
Is the integration secure for access control data?
Absolutely. The integration uses industry-standard OAuth 2.0 Client Credentials over HTTPS. Your credentials are encrypted and stored securely within the Vinkius Cloud infrastructure.
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.
