How to Use the Doodle MCP in AutoGen
Debate your meeting schedule by giving your AutoGen agents direct control over Doodle polls.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Doodle MCP to AutoGen
Create your Vinkius account to connect Doodle 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 poll options with AutoGen
Let your agents use `create_poll` as part of their negotiation. One agent suggests a time, another checks the `get_poll` data, and they reach a consensus. This removes the back-and-forth email chain. The agents argue for the best time slot until they agree to finalize the meeting.
Manage participants through debate
Use `add_participant` when agents agree on the guest list. If a participant objects, the agents use `get_comments` to discuss the conflict and adjust accordingly. They negotiate the terms of attendance in real-time. Once they agree, the tool call executes the update to the poll.
Finalize polls via agent consensus
Execute `close_poll` only when the agents confirm the decision. They review the participant list and the voting data to ensure the meeting is set correctly. This ensures you don't close a poll prematurely. The agents verify the data before finalizing, reducing the risk of a bad meeting time.

from autogen_agentchat.agents import AssistantAgent
from autogen_ext.models.openai import OpenAIChatCompletionClient
server_params = SseServerParams(

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
