How to Use the DottedSign MCP in AutoGen

Q: Can an AutoGen agent create a DottedSign document from a template?

Yes, an agent can call listtemplates to find the correct template ID. Once the team agrees on the match, the executing agent calls createtaskfromtemplate to start the signing process.

Q: How does AutoGen handle errors when calling DottedSign tools?

If a tool call like createtask fails due to bad input, the executing agent receives the error payload. It can then discuss the error with a debugging agent to correct the parameters and retry.

Q: Can I manage webhook configurations using AutoGen?

Your agents can call listwebhooks to inspect your active endpoints. If a webhook is missing or misconfigured, the agents can alert your engineering team with the exact status.

Deploy multi-agent AutoGen teams to debate, approve, and execute DottedSign tasks with built-in consensus.

Multi-agent AutoGen consensus for contract creation

The DottedSign MCP Server allows your AutoGen agents to collaborate on contract creation. In this multi-agent setup, a sales agent can propose a contract using `create_task`, while a compliance agent reviews the payload. They debate the terms in a conversational loop before sending the document to the client. If the compliance agent spots an issue, it triggers `update_task` to correct the parameters. This collaborative process ensures that no inaccurate contracts are ever sent to signers.

Automated escalation of delayed signatures

This MCP Server gives your AutoGen monitoring agents the tools to handle delayed signatures. An agent can call `list_tasks` to find outstanding agreements and pass them to a communication agent. This setup allows your agents to work together to draft follow-up reminders. If a contract is deemed stale by the group, a security agent executes `cancel_task` to prevent unauthorized signings. This team-based approach keeps your document queue clean and secure without manual dashboard work.

Audit trail verification by specialist agents

The DottedSign MCP Server provides your specialized AutoGen legal agents with raw audit logs. A legal agent in your group can call `get_audit_trail` as soon as a task is completed. It analyzes the IP addresses and timestamps to confirm everything aligns with your company policies. If something looks off, it flags the issue to human operators, using `retrieve_task` to provide the full context of the flagged document. This ensures your automated workflows remain compliant.

Setup guide

Set up DottedSign 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 DottedSign 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="DottedSign_assistant",
    model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
    tools=tools,
)

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

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

Common questions about DottedSign MCP in AutoGen

You register the tools with your AssistantAgent using the MCP tool adapter. Agents like the coordinator can then call `list_tasks` and share the resulting document list with other specialized agents in the group.

Yes, an agent can call `list_templates` to find the correct template ID. Once the team agrees on the match, the executing agent calls `create_task_from_template` to start the signing process.

If a tool call like `create_task` fails due to bad input, the executing agent receives the error payload. It can then discuss the error with a debugging agent to correct the parameters and retry.

Your agents can call `list_webhooks` to inspect your active endpoints. If a webhook is missing or misconfigured, the agents can alert your engineering team with the exact status.

Every tool execution occurs within Vinkius's secure, ephemeral V8 sandbox. Your signing tasks, audit trails, and user lists are handled in a zero-trust environment, ensuring no data persists outside the active session.
