Let AutoGen agents coordinate on customer lead management

This MCP Server provides direct access to customer records via `create_lead` and `update_lead` for your AutoGen multi-agent workflows. A qualification agent can gather user details while a database agent checks the inputs before committing the record. This collaborative approach reduces entry errors in your CRM. The agents debate whether the lead profile is complete before executing the tool, ensuring high data quality.

Resolve support chats through multi-agent debate

The AskHandle Alternative MCP Server exposes message tools like `create_message` and `get_room` to allow autonomous agents to manage active chats. In an AutoGen group chat, a support agent can draft a reply while a supervisor agent reviews it for tone. Once they reach a consensus, the server executes the tool to send the message back to the customer. This ensures that every outbound response meets your team's quality standards.

Manage webhook infrastructure with consensus-driven agents

This server lets your agents build and teardown event-driven pipelines using `create_webhook` and `delete_webhook`. Your AutoGen infrastructure agents can discuss when to set up new webhooks based on system load or specific customer events. By automating this setup through peer-reviewed agent decisions, you prevent rogue webhooks from cluttering your system. The agents verify the target URLs together before activating any live subscriptions.

Setup guide

Set up AskHandle Alternative 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 AskHandle Alternative 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="AskHandle Alternative_assistant",
    model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
    tools=tools,
)

result = await agent.run("List recent AskHandle Alternative 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="AskHandle Alternative_assistant",
        model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
        workbench=workbench,
    )

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