Key Capabilities
Debate Placetel routing in AutoGen
The `list_groups` tool allows your performance agent to analyze call queue distribution while an MCP security agent reviews the access logs. When a routing issue occurs, these AutoGen agents debate whether to modify the group structure or adjust individual user profiles. This consensus-driven approach ensures that changes to your phone system are thoroughly analyzed before execution. The agents share data from `get_group` to confirm that any proposed routing changes won't leave critical queues unattended.
Resolve hardware conflicts with multi-agent teams
The `list_devices` tool gives your hardware agent a complete list of registered VoIP phones to compare against active SIP registrations. If a device goes offline, a diagnostic agent queries `get_sip_user` to check if the SIP credentials are still valid. Instead of a single model guessing the fix, the agents discuss the findings in a group chat. They cross-reference the device list with `list_users` to determine if the issue is a physical hardware failure or an unassigned account.
Audit call records using this MCP Server
The `list_call_detail_records` tool provides the raw data that your billing and compliance agents need to audit telecom spend. One agent scans the records for international calls, while another checks `list_numbers` to verify if those calls originated from authorized company lines. The conversation interface allows these agents to flag anomalies and present a unified report to the user. This team-based audit reduces errors by separating the data retrieval, analysis, and validation steps.
Set up Placetel 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 Placetel 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="Placetel_assistant",
model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
tools=tools,
)
result = await agent.run("List recent Placetel data")
print(result.messages[-1].content) Prerequisites
- Python 3.10+ installed
-
autogen-ext[mcp]+autogen-agentchat - Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

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