FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can I check the inventory of a specific material variant?

Yes, use the get_inventory_by_variant tool with the unique variant ID to see current stock levels and availability in real-time.

Is it possible to list all current manufacturing orders?

Absolutely. The list_manufacturing_orders tool retrieves a list of all production jobs, helping you track shop floor activities.

Can I see my customer list via the agent?

Yes, the list_customers tool provides access to your customer database, making it easy to reference customer IDs for new sales orders.

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 Katana 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.
