Frequently asked questions
Can I filter searches by audio length?
The current tools support text queries and basic sorting. For advanced filtering like audio length, you can append parameters to the search string or use specific episode details tools.
How do I find the ID of a specific genre?
Use the list_podcast_genres tool. It returns a full mapping of genre names to their unique numerical IDs.
Does this server provide audio download links?
Yes, the get_episode_details tool retrieves the metadata including available audio stream URLs and the official website links.
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 Listen Notes 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.
