How to Use the 8x8 Work MCP in AutoGen
Let AutoGen agents debate your 8x8 Work call metrics to uncover hidden operational bottlenecks.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect 8x8 Work MCP to AutoGen
Create your Vinkius account to connect 8x8 Work 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 Work queue performance in AutoGen
Set up a multi-agent AutoGen conversation where one agent pulls 8x8 Work data via `list_ring_groups` and another analyzes staffing costs using our MCP setup. Instead of just looking at raw numbers, your agents debate whether a spike in wait times warrants hiring more support reps. This collaborative approach keeps your analysis sharp. One agent can argue for immediate action based on the ring group logs, while a second agent flags budget constraints, forcing a realistic compromise.
Audit 8x8 Work CDR logs using consensus-driven agents
Use `list_call_records` to feed 8x8 Work call detail records into a multi-agent AutoGen workflow using this MCP Server. A security agent can search for suspicious off-hours calls while a compliance agent checks for regulatory adherence, negotiating their findings in a shared chat. The final output isn't just a raw log dump. You get a synthesized report where both agents have agreed on the highest-priority anomalies, saving you hours of manual review.
Run extension audits with this MCP Server
Deploy an automated 8x8 Work auditor. Your AutoGen agent runs `get_extension_summary` to track individual performance metrics, then discusses these findings with a team lead agent to draft coaching notes. The entire process runs autonomously. By converting the schemas automatically with the AutoGen MCP adapter, your agents can invoke the tools and debate the results without manual intervention.
Set up 8x8 Work 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 Work 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 Work_assistant",
model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
tools=tools,
)
result = await agent.run("List recent 8x8 Work 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 Work_assistant",
model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
workbench=workbench,
)
result = await agent.run("List recent 8x8 Work data")
