About Nuclino MCP Server
Connect your Nuclino account to your AI agent and seamlessly interact with your company's unified workspace for knowledge, docs, and projects.
AutoGen enables multi-agent conversations where agents negotiate, delegate, and collaboratively use Nuclino tools. Connect 12 tools through Vinkius and assign role-based access. a data analyst queries while a reviewer validates, with optional human-in-the-loop approval for sensitive operations.
What you can do
- Teams & Workspaces — Rapidly list all teams you are part of, and enumerate the nested workspaces and collections to understand your organization's hierarchy.
- Search & Query — Perform global fuzzy searches using
search_itemsto track down specific documents, notes, or project pages across the entire knowledge base. - Read Items & Files — Read the exact content configuration of any item (document) via
get_item, and list attachments or files uploaded to the platform. - Record Creation — Instantly create new items natively inside your workspace using natural language.
- Telemetrics — Enumerate members and structural fields within your Nuclino domain to keep the agent aware of context and owners.
The Nuclino MCP Server exposes 12 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to AutoGen in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

Why Use AutoGen with the Nuclino MCP Server
AutoGen provides unique advantages when paired with Nuclino through the Model Context Protocol.
Multi-agent conversations: multiple AutoGen agents discuss, delegate, and collaboratively use Nuclino tools to solve complex tasks
Role-based architecture lets you assign Nuclino tool access to specific agents. a data analyst queries while a reviewer validates
Human-in-the-loop support: agents can pause for human approval before executing sensitive Nuclino tool calls
Code execution sandbox: AutoGen agents can write and run code that processes Nuclino tool responses in an isolated environment
Nuclino + AutoGen Use Cases
Practical scenarios where AutoGen combined with the Nuclino MCP Server delivers measurable value.
Collaborative analysis: one agent queries Nuclino while another validates results and a third generates the final report
Automated review pipelines: a researcher agent fetches data from Nuclino, a critic agent evaluates quality, and a writer produces the output
Interactive planning: agents negotiate task allocation using Nuclino data to make informed decisions about resource distribution
Code generation with live data: an AutoGen coder agent writes scripts that process Nuclino responses in a sandboxed execution environment
Nuclino MCP Tools for AutoGen (12)
These 12 tools become available when you connect Nuclino to AutoGen via MCP:
create_item
Triggers real-time replication creating permanent Wiki documentation. Write a brand new knowledge Item / Page into a Workspace
delete_item
Always confirm with the user heavily before destroying knowledge. Irreversibly delete a structural Nuclino Item
get_item
Retrieve the exact Markdown payload and configuration of an Item
list_collections
Used to trace the document relationship graph paths visually within a target Workspace. List Collections (grouping directories) segmenting a Workspace
list_fields
Used to understand standard taxonomy dimensions applicable against Items. Map customizable structured property fields globally binding a Team
list_files
Exposes pure URL bindings mapping binary data records back to object storage. List physical attachments explicitly bolted onto an Item
list_items
Used to enumerate top-level document UUIDs, titles, and creation metadata natively spanning a specific Workspace layer. List all standard knowledge items (pages) in a Workspace
list_teams
Use this as the entry point to discover available root organizational unit IDs traversing down into workspaces. List all organizational Teams the authenticated user belongs to
list_users
Enumerate human identities attached globally onto a Team
list_workspaces
Returns internal workspace UUIDs essential for scoping later item queries. List all isolated Workspaces mapped within a specific Team
search_items
Use to uncover unknown UUIDs. Execute an indexed semantic search globally across a Team
update_item
Alters the sync tree immediately appending new wiki edits. Overwrite active partial Markdown states inside a listed Item
Example Prompts for Nuclino in AutoGen
