How to Use the Argyle MCP in Vercel AI SDK
Stream real-time Argyle payroll and employment data directly into your Next.js frontend using the Vercel AI SDK.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Argyle MCP to Vercel AI SDK
Create your Vinkius account to connect Argyle to Vercel AI SDK and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Stream live employment verifications to your UI
This MCP Server exposes `get_employment` to let your application fetch verified work history on the fly. Your users don't want to stare at a spinner while waiting for income checks. By passing this tool to your streaming text generation, the agent pulls the record and displays the details live as they arrive. You set up the client, call `create_user` to kick off the onboarding flow, and watch the UI update instantly. The combination of Vercel AI SDK and our managed gateway means zero lag between the API fetch and the customer's screen.
Instantly map income breakdowns in Edge Functions
This MCP Server lets your Edge routes query `get_income` and `list_payouts` without loading massive libraries. Running payroll checks at the edge requires speed and zero overhead. The agent processes the raw numbers and outputs a clean breakdown directly to the streaming response. You initialize the connection with `createMCPClient` and pass the tool definitions directly to `streamText`. Once the run finishes, you call `mcpClient.close()` to keep your edge execution times clean and cost-effective.
Validate user identities via Vercel AI SDK tools
By exposing `get_account_check` and `list_identities` to your LLM, this MCP Server lets your model guide users through connection issues in real time. Verification workflows fail when users get stuck on connection steps. It checks if their payroll account is linked and tells them exactly what to do next. You don't have to write custom UI states for every failure scenario. The model handles the logic, queries the status, and streams the resolution steps directly to the frontend.
