About AT&T IoT MCP Server
Connect your AT&T IoT account to any AI agent and take full command of your IoT SIM fleet through natural conversation.
The Vercel AI SDK gives every AT&T IoT tool full TypeScript type inference, IDE autocomplete, and compile-time error checking. Connect 10 tools through Vinkius and stream results progressively to React, Svelte, or Vue components. works on Edge Functions, Cloudflare Workers, and any Node.js runtime.
What you can do
- Device Inventory -- List all IoT SIMs with ICCIDs, statuses (active, suspended, deactivated), data plan names, and last activity dates
- Real-Time Status -- Get live connectivity state, IP address, signal strength, data used/remaining, and suspension reasons for any SIM
- Activate & Suspend -- Instantly activate suspended devices or suspend compromised SIMs to block network access and contain costs
- Resume Devices -- Restore network access to suspended SIMs after troubleshooting or policy clearance without reprovisioning
- Data Usage Tracking -- Retrieve current and historical usage per SIM with daily breakdowns, overage alerts, and cycle forecasts
- Data Pool Management -- List shared data pools, monitor aggregate consumption, identify top-consuming devices, and prevent pool exhaustion
- Device Configuration -- Update rate limits, APN settings, and pool assignments to optimize performance or migrate devices between plans
- Automated Diagnostics -- Run connectivity troubleshooting checks including network registration, APN config, data session status, and known outages
The AT&T IoT MCP Server exposes 10 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Vercel AI SDK in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
