Frequently asked questions
Can I search for cocktails that only contain a specific ingredient like Gin?
Yes! Use the filter_by_ingredient tool with 'Gin'. It will return a list of all cocktails in the database that include Gin as one of their primary components.
How do I get the full instructions and image for a specific drink?
First, find the drink ID using search_cocktail_by_name. Then, use the get_cocktail_details tool with that ID to retrieve the high-res image URL, full ingredient list, and step-by-step instructions.
Does the integration provide non-alcoholic drink options?
Absolutely. You can use the list_alcoholic_filters tool to see available filters, and then use filter_by_category or specific search queries to identify 'Non_Alcoholic' drinks.
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 TheCocktailDB Alternative 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.
