Perplexity

Multi-agent financial debate

Configure specialized agents to negotiate over account actions. One agent validates the balance using `get_account` while another prepares the transfer. They challenge each other. If the data from `list_transactions` looks anomalous, the agents halt the process until they reach a consensus.

Automated Griffin tool execution

Use the built-in adapter to map all 12 Griffin tools directly to your agents. Your system handles schema conversion automatically, so you focus on the logic. Your agents handle the heavy lifting. They decide when to call `get_me` or `list_organizations` without you writing boilerplate code.

Consensus-based transaction management

Ensure every move is verified by multiple agent perspectives. Before executing `create_internal_transfer`, your agents verify the payee list and transaction history. Accuracy is built into the workflow. Competing agents negotiate the final action, reducing the risk of errors in your financial operations.

Setup guide

Set up Griffin 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 includes mcp_server_tools for 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 AssistantAgent and call agent.run(). The agent invokes Griffin tools and returns structured results.

agent.py

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="Griffin_assistant",
    model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
    tools=tools,
)

result = await agent.run("List recent Griffin 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. McpWorkbench is 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=workbench to your agent. State is preserved across multiple tool calls within the same session.

agent.py

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="Griffin_assistant",
        model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
        workbench=workbench,
    )

    result = await agent.run("List recent Griffin data")
    print(result.messages[-1].content)

Common questions about Griffin MCP in AutoGen

Install the extension, define your server parameters, and pass the tools to your AssistantAgent. The adapter handles the rest of the communication.

Yes. Agents use the tools to gather evidence during their discussion. They might check `get_verification` status before approving a new payee.

It does. The tool adapter automatically converts the Griffin schema, making the tools immediately available to your agents.

They pass messages back and forth. One agent might request a list of accounts, while the other processes the response to determine the next step.

Your data privacy is maintained through strict session isolation. The server only exposes the specific `list_transactions` or `list_accounts` data requested by an agent during its active turn.
