AutoGen Pre-Flight Check

AutoGen Agent Readiness

The pre-flight check for AutoGen applications. Detects GroupChat loops, code execution risks, and message routing issues.

Common AutoGen Logic Flaws

Patterns that static analysis tools like linters don't catch.

GroupChat Loops

Multi-agent group chats where agents keep responding to each other indefinitely

Code Execution

UserProxyAgent with code_execution_config can execute arbitrary code from LLM

Missing Termination

Conversations without max_consecutive_auto_reply bounds

Detection Patterns

AutoGen-specific detection patterns with code examples.

GroupChat Without Termination

CRITICAL

GroupChat with max_round set too high or not set.

Vulnerable
python
from autogen import GroupChat, GroupChatManager

group_chat = GroupChat(
    agents=[assistant, coder, reviewer],
    messages=[],
    max_round=1000  # Effectively no limit
)
manager = GroupChatManager(groupchat=group_chat)
Secure
python
group_chat = GroupChat(
    agents=[assistant, coder, reviewer],
    messages=[],
    max_round=10  # Reasonable limit
)
manager = GroupChatManager(groupchat=group_chat)

Unsafe Code Execution

CRITICAL

UserProxyAgent executes LLM-generated code without sandboxing.

Vulnerable
python
user_proxy = UserProxyAgent(
    name="user_proxy",
    code_execution_config={
        "work_dir": "coding",
        "use_docker": False  # No sandbox!
    }
)
Secure
python
user_proxy = UserProxyAgent(
    name="user_proxy",
    code_execution_config={
        "work_dir": "coding",
        "use_docker": True  # Sandboxed
    },
    max_consecutive_auto_reply=5
)

AutoGen Readiness FAQ

Does Inkog support AutoGen / AG2?

Yes. Inkog detects GroupChat loop patterns, code execution risks, and missing termination conditions in AutoGen (also known as AG2) applications.

How do I secure AutoGen GroupChats?

Set reasonable max_round limits, use Docker for code execution, and set max_consecutive_auto_reply on all agents. Inkog identifies which settings are missing.
