How to Use the Bandwidth MCP in AutoGen
Enable debate-driven messaging workflows in AutoGen by connecting your agents to the Bandwidth MCP Server.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Bandwidth MCP to AutoGen
Create your Vinkius account to connect Bandwidth 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.
Debate messaging strategy with Bandwidth tools
Assign one agent to analyze `list_campaigns` data while another critiques the messaging performance. They debate the best approach before using `send_sms` to execute the final decision. This consensus-driven model ensures your communications are reviewed by multiple agents. You get higher quality output because your agents challenge each other's assumptions based on real data.
Automate Bandwidth tasks with multi-agent consensus
Use `send_mms` or `delete_media` within a group chat of agents. One agent proposes a cleanup task, and another checks the media logs using `list_media` to verify the request. Agents negotiate the action. If the security agent flags a risk in an MMS payload, the execution agent holds off until the concern is addressed.
Manage Bandwidth health via AutoGen
The `get_health` tool acts as a heartbeat for your agent team. If the API shows high latency, your agents adjust their messaging cadence in real time. They coordinate their workload based on the current state of the infrastructure. This prevents you from overloading your messaging limits while maintaining active communication flows.
Set up Bandwidth 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 Bandwidth 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="Bandwidth_assistant",
model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
tools=tools,
)
result = await agent.run("List recent Bandwidth 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="Bandwidth_assistant",
model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
workbench=workbench,
)
result = await agent.run("List recent Bandwidth data")
