How to Use the 8x8 MCP in AutoGen
Let your AutoGen agents debate and execute 8x8 communication tasks in a multi-agent system.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect 8x8 MCP to AutoGen
Create your Vinkius account to connect 8x8 to AutoGen and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Debate 8x8 actions in AutoGen
Assign one agent to monitor `get_call_status` and another to manage `send_voice_message`. They discuss the best path before taking action. This consensus model prevents errors. The agents check each other's work, ensuring that messages only go out when conditions are met.
Manage 8x8 sub-accounts in AutoGen
Use a specialized agent to `list_sub_accounts` and audit activity. If an account hits a limit, the agent negotiates a response strategy. This is ideal for complex environments. You build systems where agents handle the heavy lifting of account management through constant deliberation.
Automate 8x8 messaging via AutoGen
Configure an agent to use `send_sms` or `send_chat_message` based on team feedback. The system verifies the message content before hitting the API. This adds a layer of human-like review to your automated flows. Agents challenge the request, verify the logic, and only then perform the action.
Set up 8x8 MCP in AutoGen
Prerequisites
- Python 3.10+ installed
-
autogen-ext[mcp]package - Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token
- 1
Install AutoGen with MCP
Run
pip install "autogen-ext[mcp]" autogen-agentchat. The MCP extension includesmcp_server_toolsfor stateless tool access. - 2
Fetch tools from the MCP
Call
mcp_server_tools(SseServerParams(url=...))with your Vinkius endpoint. Replace[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]with your token from cloud.vinkius.com. - 3
Run your agent
Pass the tools to
AssistantAgentand callagent.run(). The agent invokes 8x8 tools and returns structured results.
from autogen_ext.tools.mcp import SseServerParams, mcp_server_tools
from autogen_agentchat.agents import AssistantAgent
from autogen_ext.models.openai import OpenAIChatCompletionClient
server_params = SseServerParams(
url="https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
)
tools = await mcp_server_tools(server_params)
agent = AssistantAgent(
name="8x8_assistant",
model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
tools=tools,
)
result = await agent.run("List recent 8x8 data")
print(result.messages[-1].content) Prerequisites
- Python 3.10+ installed
-
autogen-ext[mcp]+autogen-agentchat - Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token
- 1
Install dependencies
Same packages as above.
McpWorkbenchis ideal when your agent needs stateful sessions across multiple tool calls. - 2
Use McpWorkbench as context manager
Wrap your agent in
async with McpWorkbench(...)to maintain shared state and resources. The workbench manages the full MCP session lifecycle. - 3
Run with workbench
Pass
workbench=workbenchto your agent. State is preserved across multiple tool calls within the same session.
from autogen_ext.tools.mcp import McpWorkbench, SseServerParams
from autogen_agentchat.agents import AssistantAgent
from autogen_ext.models.openai import OpenAIChatCompletionClient
server_params = SseServerParams(
url="https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
)
async with McpWorkbench(server_params) as workbench:
agent = AssistantAgent(
name="8x8_assistant",
model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
workbench=workbench,
)
result = await agent.run("List recent 8x8 data")
