Run multi-agent debates on sensitive HR actions

Executing `request_time_off` and `get_leave_balance` within an AutoGen conversation allows your agents to debate and verify requests before committing them. In AutoGen, you can set up a security agent that reviews requests before another agent calls the time off tool or changes status settings via the MCP Server. The AutoGen agents debate whether the request matches company policy by checking balances first. Relying on consensus ensures that no actions are committed to your HR platform without proper verification.

Automate onboarding with coordinated AutoGen agents

Combining `list_open_tasks` and `invite_employee` lets specialized AutoGen agents coordinate complex employee onboarding workflows automatically. One agent can check for open items while another triggers the welcome invitation to a new hire in HiBob. This MCP Server provides the tools needed for AutoGen agents to collaborate in real-time. By dividing the labor, your agents handle distinct parts of the onboarding workflow without stepping on each other's toes.

Audit payroll records through agent consensus

Fetching `get_payroll_history` allows your AutoGen financial agents to audit corporate ledger records through structured consensus. Your AutoGen agents can pull records and compare them against budget spreadsheets to flag discrepancies. If a discrepancy is found, the AutoGen agents can escalate the issue or compile a report. This structured collaboration prevents errors from slipping through to your main HiBob systems.

Setup guide

Set up HiBob 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 HiBob 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="HiBob_assistant",
    model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
    tools=tools,
)

result = await agent.run("List recent HiBob 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="HiBob_assistant",
        model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
        workbench=workbench,
    )

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

Common questions about HiBob MCP in AutoGen

Use the AutoGen MCP extension to load the tools from your Vinkius endpoint. Pass the resulting HiBob tool list directly into your AssistantAgent constructor to make them available for agent conversations.

Yes, an AutoGen agent can monitor your tasks, and once the group reaches a consensus that the work is finished, the executor agent calls `complete_task` to update the status in your HiBob portal.

You can program an AutoGen critic agent to cross-reference the output of `get_whos_out` with your team calendar. If a conflict arises, the agents will debate the discrepancy until they reach a verified resolution.

The server supports both stdio and Streamable HTTP transports. For AutoGen, you typically configure the Streamable HTTP client to connect to your hosted Vinkius endpoint securely.

Any salary and benefit details fetched via `get_employee_compensation` are transmitted over an encrypted TLS connection directly to your local AutoGen environment. Vinkius operates as a zero-trust sandbox, ensuring your compensation data is never logged or exposed to third parties.
