Run ASC calculations on Google ADK

Apply `calculate_asc_method_credit` to your research datasets hosted in BigQuery. The logic runs right where your data lives, saving you from moving sensitive records across your network. Look, here is the catch; you need precise input data to get a precise credit amount. The tool provides the mechanism, but your data quality dictates the outcome.

Verify regular method eligibility

Trigger `calculate_regular_method_credit` to see if your project expenses qualify for the regular research credit. This tool returns zero if your base is too high, keeping your projections realistic. Right. Let's run the numbers and see if your research spend actually hits the mark.

Compare strategies automatically

Use `recommend_optimal_tax_strategy` to identify which credit methodology maximizes your tax savings. The tool compares both approaches in a single step. Bottom line is, you want the strategy that keeps the most cash in your business. This tool identifies that path without manual analysis.

Setup guide

Set up R&D Tax Credit Calculator 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 R&D Tax Credit Calculator tools in your ADK agent.

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="R&D Tax Credit Calculator_agent",
