Perplexity

Enable multi-agent consensus on trading signals

The `get_price` tool fetches instant valuation data for any cryptocurrency pair in your agent conversations. Your analyst agent calls this tool to grab current prices, then passes the data to a risk agent for confirmation. Because AutoGen relies on multi-agent debate, the risk agent might challenge the trade by calling `get_historical_daily` to check long-term trends. They negotiate a decision based on hard numbers before outputting a final recommendation.

Filter and analyze market-moving news

Using the `get_latest_news` tool, your AutoGen agents deliver real-time crypto news directly to your conversation thread. A dedicated researcher agent monitors these feeds, filtering out noise by checking categories with `list_news_categories`. Once the researcher finds a critical headline, it alerts the trading agent to verify the market impact. The trading agent then checks `get_price_multi_full` to see if the news has already triggered a price spike.

Scan exchanges with this MCP Server

The `get_top_pairs` tool extracts high-volume trading pairs across all supported platforms. This MCP Server lets your discovery agent locate volatile pairs before passing them to the execution agent. The execution agent then runs `list_all_exchanges` to verify where the liquidity is concentrated. This multi-agent coordination ensures you don't execute trades on exchanges with low volume or high slippage.

Setup guide

Set up CryptoCompare (Crypto Market Data) 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 CryptoCompare (Crypto Market Data) 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="CryptoCompare (Crypto Market Data)_assistant",
    model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
    tools=tools,
)

result = await agent.run("List recent CryptoCompare (Crypto Market Data) 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="CryptoCompare (Crypto Market Data)_assistant",
        model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
        workbench=workbench,
    )

    result = await agent.run("List recent CryptoCompare (Crypto Market Data) data")
    print(result.messages[-1].content)
