How to Use the ItemPath MCP in AutoGen

Q: How do AutoGen agents collaborate using ItemPath?

You register tools like listorders with your AssistantAgent using the McpToolAdapter. Multiple agents can then access this MCP Server output, debating the results to find the most efficient fulfillment path.

Q: Can AutoGen agents resolve ItemPath batch discrepancies?

Yes, a compliance agent can query listbatches while a stock agent checks listtransactions to resolve discrepancies. They debate the historical logs until they reach a consensus on the correct inventory level.

Q: How do I connect AutoGen to this ItemPath MCP Server?

Use the mcpservertools function with your server's HTTP endpoint to load the tools into AutoGen. This automatically maps the MCP tools to schemas your agents can understand and execute.

Q: Can AutoGen agents assign warehouse tasks to real users?

Your agents can query listusers to see who is active and then delegate tasks based on current order loads. They negotiate assignments internally before outputting the final task list.

Deploy AutoGen agents to debate warehouse routing and verify ItemPath stock levels through collaborative consensus.

Debating order fulfillment with AutoGen agents

`list_orders` lets your coordinator agent pull active orders and present them to a panel of specialized AutoGen agents. One agent can analyze picker availability while another reviews priority levels, debating the best fulfillment order. They use `get_order` to dive into specific item details, negotiating which warehouse zone should handle the pick first. This collaborative approach prevents bottlenecks by resolving logistics conflicts before they hit the physical floor.

Audit stock discrepancies via AutoGen consensus

`list_transactions` provides the historical ledger that your auditing agents debate to resolve inventory discrepancies. A performance agent might push for fast restocking, while a compliance agent flags potential batch anomalies. By examining `list_batches`, the agents cross-reference lot numbers and expiration dates to agree on the correct stock count. This ensures your digital ledger matches physical warehouse reality without requiring human mediation.

Coordinate team tasks using this MCP Server

`list_users` allows your management agents to identify active system operators and delegate warehouse tasks based on workload. It gives your AutoGen team the context needed to assign orders to the right personnel. Your agents can verify user roles using `get_me` to ensure sensitive stock adjustments are only assigned to authorized staff. This keeps your automated task delegation secure, auditable, and aligned with team permissions.

Setup guide

Set up ItemPath 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 ItemPath 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="ItemPath_assistant",
    model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
    tools=tools,
)

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

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