Frequently asked questions
Can I search for books by William Shakespeare?
Yes! Use the search_author tool with the name 'Shakespeare'. It will return a list of his famous plays and sonnets available on Project Gutenberg.
How do I find books about a specific subject like 'History'?
Use the search_books tool and include the subject in your query. Your agent will search the entire catalog for titles matching that theme.
Can I get the full text of a book directly?
The current server focuses on metadata and discovery. You can retrieve the official Project Gutenberg ID for any book, which can be used to find the full text on their website.
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 Project Gutenberg 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.
