How to Use the Clickatell MCP in AutoGen
Let your AutoGen agents debate and coordinate bulk SMS campaigns and carrier routing.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Clickatell MCP to AutoGen
Create your Vinkius account to connect Clickatell 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.
Let AutoGen agents debate carrier coverage before sending
Set up a multi-agent workflow where agents negotiate routing using `test_carrier_coverage`. The quality agent checks carrier paths, while the dispatch agent prepares the queue using `dispatch_sms_message`. They collaborate to find the most reliable route before executing the send. This debate-driven process ensures you do not waste money on dead routing paths or bad carrier connections.
Autonomous budget control using MCP Server tools
Build a financial guardian agent that acts as a gatekeeper using `get_account_balance`. Before your marketing agent calls `dispatch_bulk_sms`, the guardian agent checks active funding limits. If the balance is too low, the guardian agent refuses to approve the step, forcing the system to pause. This consensus-driven safety check prevents runaway API costs without requiring human eyes on each run.
Collaborative routing cleanup and webhook management
Coordinate complex rule updates using specialized agents that check each other's work with `upsert_inbound_rule`. One agent can draft new webhooks, while a security agent reviews the configuration using `list_inbound_rules`. If the security agent flags a risk, it instructs the system to call `wipe_inbound_rule` to remove the bad endpoint. This cooperative loop keeps your webhooks secure and accurately configured.

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 Clickatell 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="Clickatell_assistant",
model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
tools=tools,
)
result = await agent.run("List recent Clickatell 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="Clickatell_assistant",
model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
workbench=workbench,
)
result = await agent.run("List recent Clickatell data")
