How to Use the vCita MCP in AutoGen
Get decisions on complex tasks using multi-agent debate with vCita and AutoGen.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect vCita MCP to AutoGen
Create your Vinkius account to connect vCita to AutoGen and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Negotiate Appointments
Don't let agents just execute; make them deliberate. You can set up an agent team to discuss booking conflicts. One agent might check `list_scheduled_appointments`, while another debates the best time, finally calling `create_new_booking`. The system converges on a decision—a confirmed slot—after internal debate.
Review Operational Status
Build multi-perspective review systems. One agent checks general account health using `get_api_status`, while another reviews staff capacity via `list_staff_members`. They argue about which status is most critical. This process simulates human oversight, ensuring nothing gets missed.
Determine Pricing Consensus
Need to finalize a client setup? Set up agents to debate the pricing. One agent might check `list_price_estimates`, while another reviews current payments using `list_recorded_payments`. They negotiate the final, agreed-upon rate. The result is a consensus on the correct action.

Run your agent
Pass the tools to
AssistantAgentand callagent.run(). The agent invokes vCita 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="vCita_assistant",
model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
tools=tools,
)
result = await agent.run("List recent vCita data")

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