What is the Splitwise MCP Server?
What you can do
- Track Expenses: Give your AI agent the ability to check who owes who across your distinct groups.
- Log Bills: Ask your AI to calculate receipts and accurately add the expense directly into Splitwise with automatic percentage or custom splits.
- Manage Friends & Groups: Easily pull details of group members.
How it works
1. Log into your Splitwise account. 2. Navigate to your Developer Applications settings to generate a personal API token. 3. Insert your Splitwise API Key directly into Vinkius vault.Who is this for?

Why AutoGen?
AutoGen enables multi-agent conversations where agents negotiate, delegate, and collaboratively use Splitwise tools. Connect 10 tools through Vinkius and assign role-based access. a data analyst queries while a reviewer validates, with optional human-in-the-loop approval for sensitive operations.

Why teams choose Vinkius for Splitwise in AutoGen
The Splitwise MCP Server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS — a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts. All 10 tools execute in hardened sandboxes optimized for native MCP execution.
Your AI agents in AutoGen only access the data you authorize, with DLP that blocks sensitive information from ever reaching the model, kill switch for instant shutdown, and up to 60% token savings. Enterprise-grade infrastructure, zero maintenance.

Frequently asked questions
Can the agent distribute the bill unequally?
Yes! When creating an expense, the AI agent can pass detailed users configuration in JSON to specify exact dollar amounts for each involved party.
How far back does the expense log go?
The agent typically limits the reading to the 20 most recent expenses to keep memory manageable, but can be instructed to pull earlier ones.
Can the bot settle debts?
Currently, the agent interacts with expenses. To log a debt settlement, the agent submits a specific 'payment = true' expense wrapper via the splitwise schema.
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 Splitwise 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.
