Debating Project Deletion and Archiving

Need to decide if a project should be deleted? You set up two agents: one 'Risk Assessor' that calls `get_engagement_statistics` and another 'Cleanup Agent' that suggests using `delete_wistia_project`. They debate the risk vs. reward. The final decision is based on consensus, not just a single API call.

Negotiating Content Ingestion Strategy with MCP Server

You can use multiple agents to argue over how content should be uploaded. One agent might suggest `upload_video_via_url` using the shortest name, while another insists on including a specific date in the metadata via `update_media_metadata`. The resulting plan is a negotiation that considers all constraints.

Auditing and Reviewing Wistia Assets

Multiple agents can collaborate to audit your entire account. One agent lists everything (`list_wistia_medias`), another checks the details against best practices (`get_media_details`), and a third suggests improvements using `update_media_metadata`. The system converges on an actionable, multi-step plan for cleanup.

Setup guide

Set up Wistia 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 Wistia 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="Wistia_assistant",
    model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
    tools=tools,
)

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

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

Common questions about Wistia MCP in AutoGen

It doesn't just run tools—it makes agents debate the sequence and necessity of tool calls. It achieves consensus on the best path forward before executing any MCP Server action.

It can retrieve project lists (`list_wistia_projects`), check project contents, and analyze assets using `get_project_details` to inform the debate between agents.

Yes. You can set up agents to sequentially list all media, check their status, and then run bulk updates or deletions based on a consensus policy you define.

It provides the raw inputs—like asset IDs and performance metrics—which become the evidence that competing agents use to argue their best course of action.

This server touches Project and Media Asset Metadata (name, description, folder structure) within your Wistia account.
