Frequently asked questions
Can I send an SMS to a specific group using the AI?
Yes! Use the send_church_sms tool and provide the Group ID and your message content. Your agent will trigger the broadcast to all members of that group instantly.
How do I see all the active keywords for my church?
Run the list_church_keywords query. The agent will retrieve a complete list of keywords configured in your account for automated responses and sign-ups.
Is it possible to add a new visitor via AI?
Absolutely. Use the add_church_person action. Provide the first name, last name, and contact details (phone/email) to instantly register the new visitor in your directory.
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 Text In Church 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.
