Learn how to connect Towio to CrewAI and start using 6 AI agent tools in minutes. Fully managed, enterprise secure, and ready to use without writing a single line of code.
What is the Towio MCP Server?
Connect your Towio craft and construction account to any AI agent and simplify how you coordinate project tasks, manage your workforce, and track delivery documentation through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Project Oversight — List all active construction or craft projects and retrieve detailed metadata.
- Task Management — Create and list tasks and to-dos to keep your job sites on schedule.
- Workforce Coordination — Query employee lists and staff details to manage your field team effectively.
- Logistics & Delivery — List and monitor delivery notes and associated documents to ensure material flow.
- Connectivity Check — Verify API connectivity and retrieve the current system version directly from the agent.
How it works
1. Subscribe to this server
2. Enter your Towio API Token (found in your workspace settings)
3. Start managing your projects from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client
Who is this for?
- Project Managers & Site Supervisors — quickly check task lists and project statuses via simple AI queries.
- Operations Managers — coordinate employee availability and verify delivery documents directly from the workspace.
- Business Owners — get instant bird's-eye views of active craft projects and team structure via the AI assistant.

Why CrewAI?
When paired with CrewAI, Towio becomes a first-class tool in your multi-agent workflows. Each agent in the crew can call Towio 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
Towio in CrewAI
Towio and 3,400+ other MCP servers. One platform. One governance layer.
Teams that connect Towio 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.

Why teams choose Vinkius for Towio in CrewAI
The Towio 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 6 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.

Every tool call from CrewAI to the Towio MCP Server is protected by DLP redaction, cryptographic audit chains, V8 sandbox isolation, kill switch, and financial circuit breakers.
Frequently asked questions
Can I see all the employees registered in our Towio account?
Yes! Use the list_employees tool. Your agent will retrieve the complete directory of staff members registered in your workspace.
How do I create a new task for a project via AI?
Use the create_task tool. Provide a title, an optional description, and the Project ID. The agent will instantly add the task to your workspace.
Is it possible to see recent delivery documents?
Absolutely. Use the list_delivery_documents query to retrieve a list of all recent delivery notes and associated files tracked in Towio.
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.
