How to Use the Baserow MCP in AutoGen

Q: How do I give my AutoGen agents access to Baserow?

Install autogen-extmcp and call the mcpservertools function with your server URL. This gives you a list of tools, like createrow, that you pass directly to your AssistantAgent constructor.

Let your AutoGen agents debate and collaborate on managing your Baserow databases.

Consensus-Driven Database Changes

This is for when you can't afford mistakes. Instead of one agent making a blind change, an agent can propose an update with `update_row`. A second "auditor" agent can then use `get_row` to fetch the current state and challenge the proposal if it's incorrect. The agents converse until they reach an agreement. Only then is the final tool call executed. This is how you use AutoGen to put a review process on critical data changes, all done automatically.

Multi-Agent Data Exploration

Set up a team of agents to map out your data. A "scout" agent can use `list_workspaces` and `list_applications` to find all databases. It passes that list to a "mapper" agent, which then uses `list_tables` and `list_fields` to document the schema of each one. This collaborative approach builds a complete picture of your Baserow environment. The final report is a product of their conversation, not just a simple data dump. This is how you use this MCP server to automate complex discovery tasks.

Build Specialist Agents with this AutoGen MCP Server

Create agents with specific jobs. A "writer" agent is only allowed to use `create_row`. A "reader" agent can only use `list_rows` and `get_row`. An "admin" agent gets access to everything, including `delete_row`. AutoGen's framework lets you define these roles and their allowed tools. When a task comes in, the agents collaborate, each contributing based on their permissions. The writer can't delete data; it has to ask the admin agent for help, providing a justification.

Setup guide

Set up Baserow 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 Baserow 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="Baserow_assistant",
    model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
    tools=tools,
)

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

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

Common questions about Baserow MCP in AutoGen

Install `autogen-ext[mcp]` and call the `mcp_server_tools` function with your server URL. This gives you a list of tools, like `create_row`, that you pass directly to your `AssistantAgent` constructor.

Yes, that's exactly what AutoGen is for. One agent can propose an update with `update_row`, and another can critique it. They'll go back and forth until they agree on the correct data to send.

When you create the agent, give it a specific list of approved tools. Just omit `delete_row` from the list for that agent. It won't be able to call the tool, even if another agent asks it to.

A data entry workflow. A user proxy agent takes a request, a writer agent drafts the JSON for `create_row`, and a validator agent uses `list_fields` to check if the draft matches the table's schema before the row is created.

Security is handled at the connection layer. Your Vinkius token authorizes access, and the MCP server doesn't store anything. It's a pass-through that executes tool calls like `list_rows` on your Baserow row data inside a secure, ephemeral sandbox that is torn down after each conversational turn.
