Why Use AutoGen with the Cortex XSIAM MCP Server

AutoGen provides unique advantages when paired with Cortex XSIAM through the Model Context Protocol.

Multi-agent conversations: multiple AutoGen agents discuss, delegate, and collaboratively use Cortex XSIAM tools to solve complex tasks

Role-based architecture lets you assign Cortex XSIAM tool access to specific agents. a data analyst queries while a reviewer validates

Human-in-the-loop support: agents can pause for human approval before executing sensitive Cortex XSIAM tool calls

Code execution sandbox: AutoGen agents can write and run code that processes Cortex XSIAM tool responses in an isolated environment

Cortex XSIAM + AutoGen Use Cases

Practical scenarios where AutoGen combined with the Cortex XSIAM MCP Server delivers measurable value.

Collaborative analysis: one agent queries Cortex XSIAM while another validates results and a third generates the final report

Automated review pipelines: a researcher agent fetches data from Cortex XSIAM, a critic agent evaluates quality, and a writer produces the output

Interactive planning: agents negotiate task allocation using Cortex XSIAM data to make informed decisions about resource distribution

Code generation with live data: an AutoGen coder agent writes scripts that process Cortex XSIAM responses in a sandboxed execution environment

Cortex XSIAM MCP Tools for AutoGen (9)

These 9 tools become available when you connect Cortex XSIAM to AutoGen via MCP:

execute_playbook

g., enrich IOCs, block IP, reset password). Requires playbook name and optional input arguments. Use this to speed up response times and ensure consistent handling of incidents. Execute an automated incident response playbook in Cortex XSIAM

get_alerts

Use this to review detection rules firing or analyze threat patterns. List security alerts detected by Cortex XSIAM

get_endpoints

Use this to audit endpoint coverage, identify disconnected hosts, or target remediation actions. List managed endpoints (hosts/devices) in Cortex XSIAM

get_incident_details

Requires the incident ID. Use this for deep investigation or context before taking action. Get detailed information about a specific security incident

get_incidents

Use this to monitor SOC queue, identify high-severity incidents, or track analyst workload. Supports sorting and limiting results. List security incidents in Cortex XSIAM

get_indicators

Use this to review threat intelligence or check if specific artifacts are known malicious. List indicators of compromise (IOCs) tracked in Cortex XSIAM

isolate_endpoint

Requires the endpoint ID. Use this immediately upon confirming a severe compromise to prevent lateral movement. Isolate a compromised endpoint from the network

run_xql_query

XQL allows searching logs, endpoints, network data, and more. Requires a valid XQL query string. Returns the results of the query. Use this for custom threat hunting, compliance reporting, or data analysis. Execute an XQL (Cortex Query Language) query for advanced threat hunting

scan_endpoint

Supports "quick" or "deep" scan types. Requires the endpoint ID. Use this to verify if a host is infected or after cleaning a threat. Trigger a malware scan on a specific endpoint

Cortex XSIAM + AutoGen FAQ

Common questions about integrating Cortex XSIAM MCP Server with AutoGen.

How does AutoGen connect to MCP servers?

Create an MCP tool adapter and assign it to one or more agents in the group chat. AutoGen agents can then call Cortex XSIAM tools during their conversation turns.

Can different agents have different MCP tool access?

Yes. AutoGen's role-based architecture lets you assign specific MCP tools to specific agents, so a querying agent has different capabilities than a reviewing agent.
