Connect Friendbuy MCP to AutoGen

Consensus-driven referral management in AutoGen
Assign one agent to `track_conversion_purchase` and another to verify reward eligibility. They discuss the data before finalizing any payouts, preventing errors. This multi-agent setup forces a validation step. If the purchase doesn't meet your criteria, the agents catch it before it hits the production API.
Automated webhook monitoring for AutoGen
Use `list_webhooks` to let your security agent inspect configurations. It reports back to the group if any settings look suspicious or outdated. It adds a layer of human-like oversight. The agents challenge each other on configuration changes, ensuring your webhook setup remains secure and functional.
Negotiate referral codes across agents
Deploy `create_referral_code` as a tool the agents can invoke after reaching a decision. They agree on the campaign parameters first, then generate the code. It eliminates rogue code creation. Every generated link is the result of a deliberate, cross-agent agreement, keeping your marketing campaign strictly aligned.
