How to Use the Beeceptor MCP in AutoGen
Let AutoGen agents debate and configure API mocks dynamically via this MCP Server to simulate complex failures.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Beeceptor MCP to AutoGen
Create your Vinkius account to connect Beeceptor 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.
Adversarial testing with AutoGen
Dynamic API mocks give your agent team a safe sandbox to simulate network failures. A chaos agent proposes breaking the payment gateway while a QA agent argues for testing latency first. They negotiate the parameters before touching the Beeceptor MCP Server. Once consensus is reached, the execution agent calls `create_rule` to implement the agreed-upon fault. The team then monitors the fallout using `list_requests` to see how the application handles the chaos.
Multi-agent state negotiation
Backend state management often sparks debate between agents representing different microservices. The database agent might want fifty user records, but the frontend agent only needs three. They discuss the optimal payload size. After agreeing on the fixture data, they execute `upsert_state` to populate the mock backend. Should something go wrong during the run, a cleanup agent steps in with `delete_state_item` to fix the corrupted records.
Debating security configurations
Test environment mTLS certificates expire constantly and break automated pipelines. A security-focused persona reviews the current setup using `list_certificates` and flags expired keys. Another agent responsible for uptime challenges the deletion of a working cert. They review the logs together before finally authorizing `delete_certificate` and installing a new one.
Set up Beeceptor 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 Beeceptor 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="Beeceptor_assistant",
model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
tools=tools,
)
result = await agent.run("List recent Beeceptor 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="Beeceptor_assistant",
model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
workbench=workbench,
)
result = await agent.run("List recent Beeceptor data")
