How to Use the Donorbox MCP in AutoGen

Q: How do I register the Donorbox MCP Server in AutoGen?

Install autogen-extmcp and use mcpservertools with the MCP Server's HTTP URL. Pass the resulting tool list to your AssistantAgent constructor to give them access to your fundraising data.

Q: Can AutoGen agents pause a Donorbox recurring plan?

Yes, agents can run pauserecurringplan after debating the donor's request. The conversation history captures the reasoning behind the pause before the tool is executed.

Q: How do AutoGen agents handle Donorbox API errors?

If a tool like updatedonorinfo fails, the executing agent shares the error with the group. The other agents analyze the failure and attempt to correct the payload before trying again.

Let AutoGen agents debate and manage your Donorbox campaigns, recurring plans, and donor records.

Let AutoGen agents coordinate donor outreach

The `create_new_donor` tool allows your primary outreach agent to register new supporters during conversational workflows. In AutoGen, a security agent can inspect the payload, while a database agent executes the tool on the MCP Server to add the record. This multi-agent debate ensures that no duplicate or malformed donor profiles get written to your account. The agents discuss the incoming data, verify the email format, and only write to the database once they reach a consensus.

Manage recurring plans through agent consensus

The `cancel_recurring_plan` tool terminates active recurring donation agreements when requested by a supporter. In an AutoGen group chat, a customer service agent can propose the cancellation, while a billing agent verifies the plan ID first. This prevents accidental plan cancellations and keeps your records clean. The agents can also coordinate to call `pause_recurring_plan` or `resume_recurring_plan` based on the donor's preference, logging the entire debate for your team.

Track campaign metrics and API connectivity

The `list_fundraising_campaigns` tool retrieves active campaign statistics for your agents to analyze. A marketing agent and a financial agent can debate which campaigns need more promotional support based on live donation totals. Before executing these complex discussions, the system runs `check_api_health` to verify that the connection to the API is stable. This ensures your agents don't waste execution tokens trying to query an offline endpoint.

Setup guide

Set up Donorbox 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 Donorbox 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="Donorbox_assistant",
    model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
    tools=tools,
)

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

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