How to Use the GivingFuel MCP in AutoGen
Use AutoGen agents to debate and verify GivingFuel financial data before taking action on your campaigns.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect GivingFuel MCP to AutoGen
Create your Vinkius account to connect GivingFuel to AutoGen and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Debate GivingFuel data with multiple agents
Assign one agent to `list_donation_orders` and another to `list_financial_transactions`. They will compare the records and flag discrepancies automatically before you see the final report. This multi-agent setup forces the system to reach a consensus. It prevents errors by having specialized agents challenge the data they receive from the MCP Server.
Automate GivingFuel oversight with agents
Create a security agent that monitors `list_crm_contacts` for anomalies. If it finds something suspicious, it can signal a second agent to halt further processing of that donor's records. This negotiation process happens behind the scenes. You get the benefit of a system that checks itself constantly without needing your input on every single transaction.
Negotiate campaign strategy via MCP Server
Let a performance agent and a strategy agent deliberate on `list_peer_campaigns` data. They can decide which campaigns need more resources based on current donation velocity. This conversation-driven approach provides better decision-making than a single agent ever could. They weigh the data against your goals and agree on the next move.
Set up GivingFuel 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 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 GivingFuel 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="GivingFuel_assistant",
model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
tools=tools,
)
result = await agent.run("List recent GivingFuel 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.
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="GivingFuel_assistant",
model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
workbench=workbench,
)
result = await agent.run("List recent GivingFuel data")
