Debate Intercom support actions in AutoGen

Assign one agent to check `get_conversation` while another evaluates the proposed `reply_to_conversation` content. They verify the tone and accuracy before any message is sent. This multi-agent approach catches errors that a single bot might miss. It ensures your responses remain professional and aligned with your team's standards.

Coordinate Intercom team members with AutoGen

Use `list_admins` to let your agents identify the right person for an escalation. They can discuss which team member is best suited to handle a complex ticket. This brings a human-in-the-loop dynamic to your automated system. It ensures that agents don't work in isolation when a real person is needed.

Search Intercom companies via AutoGen

Query `list_companies` to help agents understand the business context behind a conversation. This data informs the agents' debate on how to prioritize a ticket. Your agents use this information to decide the urgency of the request. It makes their negotiation process much more effective and data-driven.

Setup guide

Set up Intercom 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 Intercom 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="Intercom_assistant",
    model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
    tools=tools,
)

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

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

Common questions about Intercom MCP in AutoGen

Yes. You can set up a system where one agent drafts a reply and another reviews it. They discuss the draft until they reach a consensus.

You connect via the server URL and pass the tools to your assistant agent. The adapter handles the schema mapping for you.

The server supports both transport methods. Choose the one that fits your deployment architecture for the best performance.

If you have many agents debating, you might reach those limits quickly. Monitor your usage and implement a cooldown if necessary.
