AutoGen Agents Debate Hiring Goals
The `list_hiring_goals` tool feeds your targets into a multi-agent conversation. A performance agent pushes to increase hiring speed, while a compliance agent reviews the active pipeline to ensure quality standards. They negotiate using data from `list_workers` and `list_openings`. The agents cross-reference how many people you hired against how many roles remain open, debating the most efficient allocation of recruiting resources before presenting a final recommendation.
Audit Funnels with MCP Server Tools
Your agents map the recruitment pipeline by calling `list_funnels` and `list_funnel_stages`. One agent identifies bottlenecks in the background check stage, while another proposes workflow adjustments. They pull evidence using `list_interview_sessions` to see if scheduling delays cause candidate drop-off. The AutoGen framework forces these agents to challenge each other's conclusions until they reach a consensus on why the funnel is stalling.
Analyze Applicant Pools Collaboratively
The `list_applicants` tool gives your agents raw candidate volume to evaluate. They pull the list, and a specialized screening agent decides which profiles require deeper inspection. That agent then triggers `get_applicant` and `list_applicant_notes` to gather specific feedback. A secondary agent reviews the notes to check for recruiter bias or missed qualifications, ensuring no candidate gets rejected without deliberate, multi-perspective consideration.

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 Fountain 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)
agent = AssistantAgent(
name="Fountain_assistant",
model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
tools=tools,
)
result = await agent.run("List recent Fountain 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
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="Fountain_assistant",
model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
workbench=workbench,
)
result = await agent.run("List recent Fountain data")
