How to Use the Hologram.io MCP in AutoGen
Debate your IoT infrastructure strategy using AutoGen multi-agent systems and Hologram.io.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Hologram.io MCP to AutoGen
Create your Vinkius account to connect Hologram.io 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.
Negotiate connectivity states with multi-agent consensus
Assign one agent to monitor usage via `get_billing_cycle_usage` while another evaluates device security. These agents debate whether to execute `pause_sim_data` based on their competing priorities. This ensures that critical devices aren't accidentally taken offline during a routine cleanup. You get a system that balances cost control against operational uptime.
Automated fleet auditing via agent deliberation
Let your agents cross-reference `list_sim_cards` with device performance logs to identify misconfigured hardware. The agents discuss these discrepancies until they reach a conclusion on the necessary fix. This process eliminates the need for manual review of every SIM status. You build a system where the agents verify each other's findings before taking action on your fleet.
Streamline cellular management through debate
Use `list_available_data_plans` to feed your agents the options for upgrading or changing your cellular coverage. The agents deliberate on the most cost-effective plan for your current usage patterns. This prevents hasty decisions about your cellular infrastructure. The agents converge on a recommendation that aligns with your specific operational requirements.
Set up Hologram.io 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 Hologram.io 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="Hologram.io_assistant",
model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
tools=tools,
)
result = await agent.run("List recent Hologram.io 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="Hologram.io_assistant",
model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
workbench=workbench,
)
result = await agent.run("List recent Hologram.io data")
