How to Use the Ankr (Web3 Node API) MCP in AutoGen
Run consensus-driven Web3 operations by exposing the Ankr MCP Server to your AutoGen agent debates.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Ankr (Web3 Node API) MCP to AutoGen
Create your Vinkius account to connect Ankr (Web3 Node API) 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.
Multi-agent consensus on transaction safety
In AutoGen, you don't just execute transactions blindly. You set up a debate where a security agent uses `eth_simulateV1` or `simulateTransaction` to check for execution errors, while a financial agent queries `ankr_getTokenPrice` to verify slippage. They negotiate the optimal parameters before signing. Once both agents agree that the transaction is safe and cost-effective, a third execution agent triggers `eth_sendRawTransaction`. This multi-agent verification reduces the risk of costly smart contract errors.
Collaborative on-chain auditing with this MCP Server
Build a team of specialized agents to audit smart contracts. One agent can watch event logs using `eth_getLogs`, while another inspects the underlying contract code using `eth_getCode`. They coordinate their findings in a group chat to pinpoint potential vulnerabilities. If anomalies are found, a coordinator agent can query `ankr_getInteractions` to see which other addresses are at risk. The entire investigation is handled through structured multi-agent conversations.
Automated portfolio rebalancing via agent negotiation
Let your AutoGen agents manage asset allocations through structured debate. A portfolio agent checks balances using `ankr_getAccountBalance` and identifies underperforming assets. It then proposes a trade to a risk agent, which evaluates gas costs using `eth_estimateGas`. The agents negotiate the trade size and timing based on historical transfer patterns retrieved from `ankr_getTokenTransfers`. Once they reach consensus, they prepare the transaction payload for execution.
Set up Ankr (Web3 Node API) 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 Ankr (Web3 Node API) 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="Ankr (Web3 Node API)_assistant",
model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
tools=tools,
)
result = await agent.run("List recent Ankr (Web3 Node API) 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="Ankr (Web3 Node API)_assistant",
model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
workbench=workbench,
)
result = await agent.run("List recent Ankr (Web3 Node API) data")
