agent: mcp

When does this happen?

IF Need to create a web browsing assistant agent using the Playwright MCP server.

How others solved it

THEN Install the Playwright MCP server globally via npm, then use `McpWorkbench` and `StdioServerParams` to connect to it. Create an `AssistantAgent` with the workbench parameter for tool access.

import asyncio
from autogen_agentchat.agents import AssistantAgent
from autogen_agentchat.ui import Console
from autogen_ext.models.openai import OpenAIChatCompletionClient
from autogen_ext.tools.mcp import McpWorkbench, StdioServerParams
async def main():
    model_client = OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4.1")
    server_params = StdioServerParams(command="npx", args=["@playwright/mcp@latest", "--headless"])
    async with McpWorkbench(server_params) as mcp:
        agent = AssistantAgent("web_browsing_assistant", model_client=model_client, workbench=mcp)
        await Console(agent.run_stream(task="Find number of contributors for microsoft/autogen"))
asyncio.run(main())
