Frequently asked questions
Can I see all contacts in a specific folk group via AI?
Yes! Use the list_contacts tool and provide the Group ID. Your agent will retrieve all profiles and metadata for the contacts in that specific group.
How do I add a new person to my folk directory?
Use the create_contact action. Provide the first name, last name, and email address to register the new contact in your folk account instantly.
Is it possible to see the interaction history for a contact via AI?
Absolutely. Run the list_interactions query with the Contact ID. The agent will retrieve a history of emails, meetings, and calls associated with that profile.
How does AutoGen connect to MCP servers?
Create an MCP tool adapter and assign it to one or more agents in the group chat. AutoGen agents can then call folk tools during their conversation turns.
Can different agents have different MCP tool access?
Yes. AutoGen's role-based architecture lets you assign specific MCP tools to specific agents, so a querying agent has different capabilities than a reviewing agent.
Does AutoGen support human approval for tool calls?
Yes. Configure human-in-the-loop mode so agents pause and request approval before executing sensitive MCP tool calls.
