Multi-Agent Analysis via MCP Server
`get_donki_notifications` alerts your AutoGen team to a new solar event. A designated forecasting agent reads the feed and proposes an initial threat level. A separate risk-assessment agent challenges this conclusion by pulling specific data from `get_cme`. Agents debate the severity before waking up human operators. If the forecaster sees a massive ejection, the risk agent might argue that the trajectory misses Earth. They negotiate the final output based on the raw telemetry, giving you a vetted consensus rather than a blind alert.
Resolve Conflicting Solar Metrics
`get_solar_flares` provides the initial electromagnetic burst data, while `get_geomagnetic_storms` tracks the actual impact on Earth's magnetic field. One agent specializes in flare classifications and another monitors Kp indexes. They work together to map cause and effect. You watch them deliberate in real-time. The flare agent flags an X-class event, demanding immediate action. The storm agent checks the Kp index, sees a value of 4, and downgrades the immediate grid threat. The system handles the complex correlation.
Automate Orbital Risk Assessments
`get_interplanetary_shocks` feeds data to an engineering agent tasked with protecting satellite hardware. This agent cross-references the shockwave timing with `get_radiation_belt` and `get_solar_energetic_particles` metrics. It builds a case for putting specific satellites into safe mode. A financial agent reviews the proposal, weighing the cost of downtime against the probability of hardware damage. They'll fight over the margins. You define the rules of engagement, and the agents execute the logic using live NASA data.
Set up NASA DONKI — Space Weather Intelligence 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 NASA DONKI — Space Weather Intelligence 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="NASA DONKI — Space Weather Intelligence_assistant",
model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
tools=tools,
)
result = await agent.run("List recent NASA DONKI — Space Weather Intelligence 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="NASA DONKI — Space Weather Intelligence_assistant",
model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
workbench=workbench,
)
result = await agent.run("List recent NASA DONKI — Space Weather Intelligence data")
