How to Use the Redis Vector MCP in AutoGen
Enable debate-driven vector management in AutoGen using Redis Vector tools.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Redis Vector MCP to AutoGen
Create your Vinkius account to connect Redis Vector to AutoGen — we handle the hosting, security, and runtime updates so you don't have to. No server setup required.
Key Capabilities
Collaborative Redis Vector management
Your AutoGen agents debate whether to `upsert_vector` or remove old data. One agent proposes the update while another evaluates the impact on performance. This consensus ensures your Redis stack stays clean. Agents negotiate the right time to run indexing operations based on current system load.
Intelligent search via AutoGen agents
Agents perform KNN similarity searches using `search_vectors` to resolve complex queries. They discuss the results to find the most relevant document for the user. This deliberative process reduces errors in vector retrieval. Agents challenge each other's search parameters to ensure high accuracy.
Autonomous index scaling
The system calls `create_vector_index` when agents determine the current capacity is insufficient. This MCP Server gives your agents the power to adapt the schema. Use `list_indexes` to keep the team informed of available resources. Every tool call is part of a larger conversation between your agents.
Set up Redis Vector MCP in AutoGen
Prerequisites
- Python 3.10+ installed
-
autogen-ext[mcp]package - Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token
- 1
Install AutoGen with MCP
Run
pip install "autogen-ext[mcp]" autogen-agentchat. The MCP extension includesmcp_server_toolsfor stateless tool access. - 2
Fetch tools from the MCP
Call
mcp_server_tools(SseServerParams(url=...))with your Vinkius endpoint. Replace[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]with your token from cloud.vinkius.com. - 3
Run your agent
Pass the tools to
AssistantAgentand callagent.run(). The agent invokes Redis Vector tools and returns structured results.
from autogen_ext.tools.mcp import SseServerParams, mcp_server_tools
from autogen_agentchat.agents import AssistantAgent
from autogen_ext.models.openai import OpenAIChatCompletionClient
server_params = SseServerParams(
url="https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
)
tools = await mcp_server_tools(server_params)
agent = AssistantAgent(
name="Redis Vector_assistant",
model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
tools=tools,
)
result = await agent.run("List recent Redis Vector data")
print(result.messages[-1].content) Prerequisites
- Python 3.10+ installed
-
autogen-ext[mcp]+autogen-agentchat - Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token
- 1
Install dependencies
Same packages as above.
McpWorkbenchis ideal when your agent needs stateful sessions across multiple tool calls. - 2
Use McpWorkbench as context manager
Wrap your agent in
async with McpWorkbench(...)to maintain shared state and resources. The workbench manages the full MCP session lifecycle. - 3
Run with workbench
Pass
workbench=workbenchto your agent. State is preserved across multiple tool calls within the same session.
from autogen_ext.tools.mcp import McpWorkbench, SseServerParams
from autogen_agentchat.agents import AssistantAgent
from autogen_ext.models.openai import OpenAIChatCompletionClient
server_params = SseServerParams(
url="https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
)
async with McpWorkbench(server_params) as workbench:
agent = AssistantAgent(
name="Redis Vector_assistant",
model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
workbench=workbench,
)
result = await agent.run("List recent Redis Vector data")
