Connecting MCP to Claude Code
# Add a memory server
echo ' {"mcpServers":{"memory":{"url":"' $VINKIUS_MEM0_MCP_URL ' "}}}' > .mcp.json
claude # MCP is auto-detected
/mcp # verify connection
Open Settings → MCP
Add server with SSE URL from Vinkius
Restart Cursor
from crewai import Agent
from crewai_tools import MCPServerAdapter
tools = MCPServerAdapter (
server_params = {"url" : "https://edge.vinkius.com/vk_live_xxx/mcp" }
).tools
agent = Agent (role = "Researcher" , tools = tools )
The Vinkius AI Gateway provides 2,600+ production-ready MCP servers — deploy any of them in under a minute and receive an SSE endpoint URL.
