How to Use the AssemblyAI MCP in Mastra AI
Build self-healing speech pipelines in Mastra AI using AssemblyAI to transcribe and analyze audio files.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect AssemblyAI MCP to Mastra AI
Create your Vinkius account to connect AssemblyAI to Mastra AI and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Build resilient speech-to-text workflows in Mastra AI
AssemblyAI audio processing fails for a dozen different reasons, from bad URLs to rate limits. Mastra AI lets you wrap `transcribe_audio` in a structured workflow that automatically retries when the API encounters transient errors. If the AssemblyAI transcription job still stalls, the Mastra AI workflow engine catches the failure and routes the task to a fallback handler. You write the logic once, and your Mastra AI agent handles the rest without crashing.
Automate AssemblyAI cleanup after Mastra AI workflows
Leaving raw AssemblyAI audio records sitting in your account is a security risk. This MCP Server lets you chain `delete_transcript` as the final step in your multi-step Mastra workflows. Once your Mastra AI agent finishes extracting insights from `get_transcript`, the system triggers the deletion. Your Mastra AI workflow verifies the `delete_transcript` call succeeded before marking the run as complete.
Branch Mastra AI workflows based on transcript structure
With this MCP Server, you can use `get_transcript_paragraphs` to check the density of the returned text before deciding which LLM to use for summarization. If `get_transcript_paragraphs` returns dozens of items, your Mastra AI agent routes the payload to a model with a larger context window. For short AssemblyAI snippets, Mastra AI uses a smaller, faster model to save on API costs.
Set up AssemblyAI MCP in Mastra AI
Prerequisites
- Node.js 18+ and a TypeScript project
-
@mastra/mcp+@mastra/corepackages - Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token
- 1
Install dependencies
Run
npm install @mastra/mcp @mastra/coreplus your preferred model provider (e.g.@ai-sdk/openai). - 2
Configure the MCPClient
Create an
MCPClientwith your Vinkius endpoint as aURLobject. Replace[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]with your token from cloud.vinkius.com. - 3
Discover and inject tools
Call
mcpClient.listTools()and spread the result into your agent'stoolsobject. All AssemblyAI tools become native Mastra tools. - 4
Run with any model
Swap
openai("gpt-4o")for any AI SDK-compatible provider. Callagent.generate()and the agent routes tool calls through MCP automatically.
import { MCPClient } from "@mastra/mcp";
import { Agent } from "@mastra/core/agent";
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai";
const mcpClient = new MCPClient({
