How to Use the AccuWeather MCP in AutoGen
Let AutoGen agents debate and coordinate travel plans using real-time forecasts from this MCP Server.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client

Debate severe weather risks in AutoGen
Set up a safety agent and a logistics agent to negotiate travel plans. The safety agent can call `get_weather_alarms` to check for active warnings, while the logistics agent uses `get_hourly_forecast` to find open travel windows. They debate the risks of a trip based on actual data. This consensus-driven approach ensures your automated workflows don't schedule travel during active blizzard warnings or heavy storms.
Coordinate events with AutoGen agents
One agent can handle venue booking while another checks the `get_extended_forecast` MCP tool to evaluate weather conditions up to two weeks out. If the forecast turns bad, the agents renegotiate the date. The scheduling agent uses `get_weather_indices` to see if outdoor conditions are suitable for the planned activities. It then updates the master plan based on the team's consensus.
Resolve geographic keys via agent debate
When user requests are ambiguous, one agent uses `search_location` to find potential matches. Another agent checks `get_location_by_key` to verify the administrative area and coordinates. They compare the findings to agree on the exact location before querying weather data. This collaborative step prevents your system from pulling weather for the wrong city.
Set up AccuWeather 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 AccuWeather 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="AccuWeather_assistant",
model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
tools=tools,
)
result = await agent.run("List recent AccuWeather 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="AccuWeather_assistant",
model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
workbench=workbench,
)
result = await agent.run("List recent AccuWeather data")
