How to Use the BOSSDesk MCP in AutoGen

Q: How do I register BOSSDesk tools with an AutoGen MCP setup?

First, run pip install -U "autogen-extmcp". Use the mcpservertools helper to fetch the tools from your Vinkius URL, then pass that list directly to your AssistantAgent.

Q: Can AutoGen agents collaborate to resolve a BOSSDesk ticket?

Yes. One agent can fetch details using getticket and draft a response, while another agent uses addticketnote to post the resolution once they both agree.

Q: Can I use AutoGen to automate hardware assignments?

Yes. Your agents can query available gear using listassets and assign them to new hires found via listusers without human intervention.

Let AutoGen agents debate and resolve BOSSDesk IT tickets through consensus-driven workflows via this MCP Server.

Create and verify tickets using AutoGen

The `create_ticket` and `update_ticket` tools allow your AutoGen agents to open and modify support cases based on team discussions. One agent drafts the ticket details, while a second agent reviews it for completeness before submitting. This multi-agent review process cuts down on incomplete or miscategorized tickets. Your agents agree on the priority and category before writing to the database.

Audit hardware with this MCP Server

The `list_assets` and `get_asset` tools give your agents the ability to run automated inventory checks. A coordinator agent assigns lookup tasks, while a worker agent fetches the details to verify compliance. If a mismatch is found, the agents debate whether to update the asset record or flag it for manual review. You get clean inventory data without manual auditing.

Verify user identities across systems

The `get_user` and `list_users` tools let your agents verify employee status before modifying high-priority tickets. A security agent checks the user's department, while an operations agent updates the ticket queue. This ensures that sensitive IT modifications require consensus among your agent workforce. No single agent can make unauthorized changes without verification.

Setup guide

Set up BOSSDesk 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 BOSSDesk 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="BOSSDesk_assistant",
    model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
    tools=tools,
)

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

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