Perplexity

Coordinate Monzo account audits across agents

The `get_monzo_accounts` tool provides the foundational Monzo account list that your AutoGen agents use to coordinate multi-agent audits. An AutoGen auditor agent can fetch the Monzo accounts, then assign specific IDs to specialist agents for deep analysis. AutoGen handles this delegation by passing the Monzo account details through its structured conversation loops. This ensures every AutoGen agent in the group chat is working with the same verified Monzo account data.

Debate budget allocations using live balances

The `get_monzo_balance` tool retrieves current Monzo funds so your AutoGen agents can debate and negotiate budget adjustments. A conservative AutoGen savings agent can argue with a spending agent on how to allocate the remaining Monzo balance. The AutoGen tool adapter automatically translates the raw Monzo balance output into schemas that the agents can read during their conversation. They use this real-time Monzo data to reach a consensus on financial moves.

Analyze transaction history with this MCP Server

The `get_monzo_transactions` tool delivers your raw Monzo transaction ledger directly to AutoGen's analytical agents. One AutoGen agent can parse the Monzo transactions for tax write-offs while another checks for duplicate charges. This collaborative AutoGen approach lets the agents challenge each other's Monzo categorizations before presenting you with a final, clean report. The entire AutoGen process runs through a single Vinkius connection token to access your Monzo ledger.

Setup guide

Set up Monzo Banking 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 Monzo Banking 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="Monzo Banking_assistant",
    model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
    tools=tools,
)

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

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