How to Use the AT&T Messaging MCP in AutoGen

Q: How do I handle AT&T Messaging bulk SMS errors in AutoGen?

When sendbulksms returns errors, your AutoGen execution agent shares the failure list with a diagnostic agent. They collaborate to clean up the phone numbers and retry the failed sends.

Q: How do I register this MCP Server with my AutoGen agents?

Install autogen-extmcp and use mcpservertools with your Vinkius HTTP URL. Pass the resulting tool list directly to your AssistantAgent constructor to expose the MCP tools to your agents.

Coordinate MMS campaigns via AutoGen agent debate

The `send_mms` tool transmits media messages using a sender ID, recipient number, and media URL. Within your AutoGen group chat, a creative agent drafts the message while a compliance agent reviews the media URL before triggering the send. This multi-agent setup prevents bad links or wrong formatting from reaching your customers. They debate the message layout, check the media assets, and only execute the tool once they reach consensus.

AutoGen consensus for shortcode management

Triggering the `create_shortcode` tool provisions new messaging shortcodes and returns the activation timeline. In AutoGen, your operations agent proposes a new shortcode while your budget agent reviews the timeline and costs. The agents negotiate the launch schedule based on the API response. Once they agree on the timing, they trigger the setup and hand off the new shortcode to your campaign agents.

Decommission shortcodes safely with an MCP Server

Executing the `delete_shortcode` tool decommissions active shortcodes when campaigns end. Your AutoGen security agent monitors campaign performance and debates with the marketing agent on whether a low-performing shortcode should be retired. Once both agents agree that the campaign is dead, they call this MCP Server tool to retire the number. This prevents orphaned shortcodes from running up costs on your account.

Setup guide

Set up AT&T Messaging 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 AT&T Messaging 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="AT&T Messaging_assistant",
    model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
    tools=tools,
)

result = await agent.run("List recent AT&T Messaging 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="AT&T Messaging_assistant",
        model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
        workbench=workbench,
    )

    result = await agent.run("List recent AT&T Messaging data")
    print(result.messages[-1].content)

Common questions about AT&T Messaging MCP in AutoGen

One AutoGen agent drafts the message and selects the media URL, while a second agent calls `send_mms` to transmit it. They communicate in a shared group chat to ensure the content is approved before sending.

Yes, your AutoGen agents analyze campaign traffic and debate whether to use `delete_shortcode`. They only call the tool once they reach consensus that the shortcode is no longer needed.

When `send_bulk_sms` returns errors, your AutoGen execution agent shares the failure list with a diagnostic agent. They collaborate to clean up the phone numbers and retry the failed sends.

Install `autogen-ext[mcp]` and use `mcp_server_tools` with your Vinkius HTTP URL. Pass the resulting tool list directly to your `AssistantAgent` constructor to expose the MCP tools to your agents.
