Resolve tax disputes with AutoGen agents

You generate a year-by-year depreciation schedule by calling `calculate_depreciation_schedule` during multi-agent debates. This collaborative process ensures your tax plans are solid. The final numbers are verified by multiple specialized perspectives before you export them.

Debate expensing strategies in AutoGen

Look, the bottom line is that choosing between Section 179 and Bonus Depreciation requires analysis, which is why your agents run `calculate_expensing_impact` to compare them. This MCP provides the hard data for their negotiation. Your system arrives at a balanced, consensus-driven tax strategy without human intervention.

Validate asset classes via AutoGen MCP Server

According to the tax code, getting the recovery period right is critical, so your agents use `get_asset_class_info` to confirm the asset type. A classification agent checks the asset description and matches it to IRS guidelines. The debate agent uses this verified class info to run its calculations.

Setup guide

Set up US Depreciation Calculator 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 includes mcp_server_tools for 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 AssistantAgent and call agent.run(). The agent invokes US Depreciation Calculator tools and returns structured results.

agent.py

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="US Depreciation Calculator_assistant",
    model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
    tools=tools,
)

result = await agent.run("List recent US Depreciation Calculator 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. McpWorkbench is 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=workbench to your agent. State is preserved across multiple tool calls within the same session.

agent.py

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="US Depreciation Calculator_assistant",
        model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
        workbench=workbench,
    )

    result = await agent.run("List recent US Depreciation Calculator data")
    print(result.messages[-1].content)
