Calculate exact gram mass in Google ADK

Look, volumetric cooking is a disaster for scaling recipes. If you are running an enterprise food app, you need weights, not cups. Your agent calls `convert_volume_to_weight` to turn messy volume inputs into clean, scale-ready grams. It keeps your recipe database standardized and professional.

Retrieve precise density constants

Brown sugar packed is different from brown sugar sifted. You need the exact weight of a cup to make sense of old recipes. This tool uses `get_ingredient_density` to fetch the weight of one cup for any specific item. That is the secret to consistent baking results.

Query the ingredient index

Finding the right ingredient is the first step. You can't convert the weight of something if you don't know what it is. The agent executes `search_ingredients` to scan the pantry database. It matches the user's text to the correct culinary item, ensuring the conversion is based on the right density.

Setup guide

Set up Ingredient Weight Converter 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 Ingredient Weight Converter 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="Ingredient Weight Converter_agent",
    model="gemini-2.0-flash",
    instruction="You have access to Ingredient Weight Converter tools via MCP.",
    tools=mcp_tools,
)

Common questions about Ingredient Weight Converter MCP in Google ADK

Install the library and configure the MCP toolset with the Vinkius HTTP endpoint. Pass the toolset directly to your agent to expose the conversion tools.

Yes. Use the tool names parameter in your toolset configuration to restrict access. You can expose only the conversion tool or the search tool depending on your agent's role.

Because the models handle huge context windows, your agent can process entire cookbooks. It calls the conversion tools repeatedly to translate whole lists of volumetric ingredients into grams in one go.

Yes. It supports both Stdio and HTTP transports. You can run it locally during development or host it securely on Google Cloud for production.

Absolutely. All recipe measurements and ingredient lookup strings are TLS-encrypted in transit. Vinkius hosts this MCP securely so no cooking data is persisted, keeping your proprietary recipes safe.
