About Flock MCP Server
Connect your Flock bot to any AI agent and take full control of your team communication, private groups, and organizational roster through natural conversation.
AutoGen enables multi-agent conversations where agents negotiate, delegate, and collaboratively use Flock tools. Connect 10 tools through Vinkius and assign role-based access. a data analyst queries while a reviewer validates, with optional human-in-the-loop approval for sensitive operations.
What you can do
- Rich Messaging Orchestration — Provision massively fast payloads strictly into Flock chats, utilizing `
to render rich enterprise attachments and formatted layouts natively - Public Channel Discovery — Enumerate explicitly attached public channels and execute bulk iterations to capture global namespaces and routing configurations synchronously
- Private Group Management — Identify bounded private groups and retrieve precise physical definitions detailing exactly how hidden groups operate within your enterprise
- Organizational Roster Auditing — Discovers global identity blocks mapping direct @` aliases to absolute string UUIDs to solve accurate routing for the entire company
- Identity Metadata Retrieval — Perform structural extraction of profile metadata linked to Flock users, resolving time zones and LDAP/SSO properties securely
- Chat Log Ingestion — Pull chronological asynchronous logs from any room, extracting raw JSON objects mapping historical strings natively from chat fetchers
- Membership Oversight — Audit IAM boundaries and identify explicit active UUIDs directly attached to channels or groups to verify intended audiences flawlessly
The Flock MCP Server exposes 10 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to AutoGen in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

Why Use AutoGen with the Flock MCP Server
AutoGen provides unique advantages when paired with Flock through the Model Context Protocol.
Multi-agent conversations: multiple AutoGen agents discuss, delegate, and collaboratively use Flock tools to solve complex tasks
Role-based architecture lets you assign Flock tool access to specific agents. a data analyst queries while a reviewer validates
Human-in-the-loop support: agents can pause for human approval before executing sensitive Flock tool calls
Code execution sandbox: AutoGen agents can write and run code that processes Flock tool responses in an isolated environment
Flock + AutoGen Use Cases
Practical scenarios where AutoGen combined with the Flock MCP Server delivers measurable value.
Collaborative analysis: one agent queries Flock while another validates results and a third generates the final report
Automated review pipelines: a researcher agent fetches data from Flock, a critic agent evaluates quality, and a writer produces the output
Interactive planning: agents negotiate task allocation using Flock data to make informed decisions about resource distribution
Code generation with live data: an AutoGen coder agent writes scripts that process Flock responses in a sandboxed execution environment
Flock MCP Tools for AutoGen (10)
These 10 tools become available when you connect Flock to AutoGen via MCP:
channels_get_info
Retrieve explicit Channel descriptions and banner logic mappings
channels_list_members
Identify explicit Active UUIDs directly attached evaluating Channel ingress
channels_list_public
Enumerate explicitly attached `public` channels active within Flock
chat_fetch_messages
Extracts raw JSON objects mapping historical strings natively returned by `chat.fetchMessages`. Read recent structural Chat payloads targeting a Flock Room
chat_send_message
Detects if formatted `<flockml>` definitions are passed and converts the payload dynamically bypassing standard Markdown limits rendering rich enterprise attachments. Provision a massively fast payload strictly into an established Flock Chat
groups_get_info
Inspect deep internal credentials identifying a precise Private Group
groups_list_members
Crucial for verifying sensitive message targets. Audit IAM boundaries explicitly granting read permissions to a Group
groups_list_private
Returns arrays necessary to retrieve correct routing UUIDs. Identify bounded Private Groups tracking strict IAM boundaries
roster_list_directory
Returns explicit array definitions mapping direct `@` aliases to absolute string UUIDs solving accurate routing natively. Identify precise active Human constraints navigating the entire Flock company
users_get_metadata
Perform structural extraction of metadata linked to a Flock Identity
Example Prompts for Flock in AutoGen
Ready-to-use prompts you can give your AutoGen agent to start working with Flock immediately.
"Send a message to group 'g:123': 'Project update is live!'"
"List all public channels in my Flock workspace"
"Get the metadata for user '@john_doe'"
