Collaborative Query Execution

This isn't just about running SQL; it's about agreeing on the *right* SQL. An "Analyst" agent can propose a query, and a "DBA" agent can review it before execution. Once they agree, one agent calls `execute_sql`. While the query runs, the agents can continue their conversation. One agent can be tasked with polling `statement_status`. When it's done, it notifies the group, and another agent can call `get_results` to analyze the output.

Debate Queries with Full Context

Good debates need good data. One agent can act as a schema expert, using `list_schemas` and `list_tables` to inform the conversation about what data is available. If an analyst agent proposes a query with an incorrect column name, the schema expert can use `describe_table` to fetch the correct schema, present it to the group, and suggest a fix. This prevents errors before a costly query is ever run.

AutoGen Agents for Database Auditing

Assign one agent the role of "Auditor." Its primary job is to use the `list_statements` tool to monitor activity on the Redshift cluster. This agent can flag long-running queries, frequent errors, or unexpected activity and bring it to the attention of the other agents. It's a simple way to build a consensus-driven monitoring system for your data warehouse. This MCP server provides the tools for that conversation.

Setup guide

Set up Amazon Redshift 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 includes mcp_server_tools for 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 AssistantAgent and call agent.run(). The agent invokes Amazon Redshift tools and returns structured results.

agent.py

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="Amazon Redshift_assistant",
    model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
    tools=tools,
)

result = await agent.run("List recent Amazon Redshift 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. McpWorkbench is 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=workbench to your agent. State is preserved across multiple tool calls within the same session.

agent.py

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="Amazon Redshift_assistant",
        model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
        workbench=workbench,
    )

    result = await agent.run("List recent Amazon Redshift data")
    print(result.messages[-1].content)

Common questions about Amazon Redshift MCP in AutoGen

You can assign roles. An "Analyst" agent proposes a query, a "Validator" approves it, and an "Executor" calls `execute_sql`. The Executor then polls `statement_status` and uses `get_results` to bring the data back to the group.

Yes, that's a core use case. You can create a "SchemaExpert" agent that uses `list_schemas`, `list_tables`, and `describe_table`. When another agent needs to write a query, it can ask the expert for the correct table and column names.

The asynchronous tools are ideal for AutoGen's conversational model. One agent calls `execute_sql` and the group can discuss other things. A dedicated agent can be tasked with polling `statement_status` and announcing when the results are ready.

This server is pre-built, managed, and secure. You don't write any connection or auth logic. Just use the `mcp_server_tools` function, and you get a list of ready-to-use tools for your agents, all running in a Vinkius-managed sandbox.

The server only processes the data needed for its tools: SQL commands, schema and table names, and query results. Your database credentials are never exposed. Vinkius handles authentication via a single API token and ensures each operation runs in a stateless, isolated environment.
