How to Use the Dagger (Programmable CI) MCP in AutoGen
Let your AutoGen agents debate build strategies using the Dagger (Programmable CI) MCP Server.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Dagger (Programmable CI) MCP to AutoGen
Create your Vinkius account to connect Dagger (Programmable CI) 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.
Debate builds with AutoGen
Give your agents access to `execute_graphql_query` so they can propose and critique build pipelines. One agent suggests a DAG, while another verifies the logic against the Dagger engine. This forces your agents to reach a consensus on the best build path. They negotiate the steps until they agree on the final execution order.
Secure secrets with AutoGen agents
Assign a security agent to handle `query_secret` calls. It reviews the requested secret source before the execution agent runs the build command. You prevent unauthorized access by requiring a two-agent handshake. The security agent checks the env or path format, ensuring only safe parameters reach the engine.
Manage build versions in AutoGen
Use `query_version` to keep your agents updated on the Dagger engine capabilities. A performance agent checks the version to decide which GraphQL features to use. This keeps your agents in sync with your infrastructure. They adapt their build strategies based on the specific version of the engine currently running.
Set up Dagger (Programmable CI) 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 Dagger (Programmable CI) 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="Dagger (Programmable CI)_assistant",
model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
tools=tools,
)
result = await agent.run("List recent Dagger (Programmable CI) 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="Dagger (Programmable CI)_assistant",
model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
workbench=workbench,
)
result = await agent.run("List recent Dagger (Programmable CI) data")
