Multi-Agent Energy Debates via MCP
You do not have to accept a single forecast at face value. With this MCP Server, you can assign `get_short_term_outlook` to a risk-analyst agent and `get_annual_outlook` to a long-term strategist agent. They query the endpoints independently. The risk analyst flags an 18-month supply crunch, while the strategist argues the 30-year reference case absorbs the shock. They debate the data in your terminal until they reach a consensus on the market trajectory.
Cross-Checking International Assumptions
Global projections often hide regional nuances. You can spin up a dedicated geopolitical agent equipped strictly with `get_international_data` and `get_international_outlook`. When the domestic agents propose a U.S. export strategy, the geopolitical agent pulls country-level consumption stats to challenge their assumptions. AutoGen handles the schema conversion automatically, so the agents focus entirely on the argument.
Autonomous Scenario Stress Testing
Energy models include multiple side cases. You can instruct your agents to iterate through the National Energy Modeling System variations without human intervention using standard MCP protocols. One agent pulls the high-economic-growth case, another pulls the low-oil-price case. They compare the resulting emissions and price data, generating a synthesized report that highlights where the models diverge most aggressively.

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 EIA Energy Outlook — Forecasts & Projections 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)

)
result = await agent.run("List recent EIA Energy Outlook — Forecasts & Projections data")
print(result.messages[-1].content) Prerequisites
- Python 3.10+ installed
-
autogen-ext[mcp]+autogen-agentchat - Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

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
