How to Use the Anaplan MCP in AutoGen
Deploy multi-agent teams in AutoGen to debate and execute your Anaplan data strategies.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Anaplan MCP to AutoGen
Create your Vinkius account to connect Anaplan 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.
Debating Anaplan operations in AutoGen
Configure one agent to monitor `get_task_status` while another agent prepares the next `run_import`. They communicate to resolve conflicts before taking action. This setup allows agents to challenge each other on whether a process should proceed. It creates a consensus-driven approach to your data management.
Automated workspace discovery for AutoGen
Your agent team uses `list_workspaces` to map out the environment. They negotiate which workspace to target based on performance and availability metrics. Once they agree, they use `list_models` to identify the correct container. The agents ensure they are working on the right target before any data changes occur.
Secure process orchestration
One agent acts as a validator, checking the output of `list_processes` against your compliance rules. Only if it approves does the execution agent run the command. This division of labor prevents unauthorized or accidental data triggers. You get a record of the debate that led to each action.
Set up Anaplan 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 Anaplan 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="Anaplan_assistant",
model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
tools=tools,
)
result = await agent.run("List recent Anaplan 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="Anaplan_assistant",
model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
workbench=workbench,
)
result = await agent.run("List recent Anaplan data")
