Perplexity

Automate data collection for Mastra AI agents

Trigger `get_data` inside your Mastra workflow to pull specific US economic metrics. You can set conditional branches based on the results you pull. If the first attempt fails, your agent automatically retries the operation. This keeps your pipeline running without manual intervention.

Explore BEA datasets via Mastra AI workflows

Run `get_dataset_list` as a preliminary step in your agent logic. Your system will identify which datasets are active before attempting a deep dive. This reduces wasted API calls. Your agent only requests information it knows is available from the source.

Validate parameter values in your Mastra AI agents

Use `get_parameter_values` to ensure your agent sends the correct arguments to the Bureau of Economic Analysis. It prevents malformed requests from breaking your sequence. Your agent checks the schema before it acts. This makes your multi-step process significantly more predictable.

Setup guide

Set up BEA (Bureau of Economic Analysis) MCP in Mastra AI

Prerequisites

Node.js 18+ and a TypeScript project
@mastra/mcp + @mastra/core packages
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install dependencies
Run npm install @mastra/mcp @mastra/core plus your preferred model provider (e.g. @ai-sdk/openai).
2

Configure the MCPClient
Create an MCPClient with your Vinkius endpoint as a URL object. 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's tools object. All BEA (Bureau of Economic Analysis) tools become native Mastra tools.
4

Run with any model
Swap openai("gpt-4o") for any AI SDK-compatible provider. Call agent.generate() and the agent routes tool calls through MCP automatically.

agent.ts

import { MCPClient } from "@mastra/mcp";
import { Agent } from "@mastra/core/agent";
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai";

const mcpClient = new MCPClient({
  id: "bea-bureau-of-economic-analysis-mcp-client",
  servers: {
    "bea-bureau-of-economic-analysis-mcp": {
      url: new URL(
        "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
      ),
    },
  },
});

const agent = new Agent({
  name: "BEA (Bureau of Economic Analysis) Agent",
  model: openai("gpt-4o"),
  instructions: "You have access to BEA (Bureau of Economic Analysis) tools.",
  tools: {
    ...(await mcpClient.listTools()),
  },
});

const result = await agent.generate(
  "List recent BEA (Bureau of Economic Analysis) transactions"
);
console.log(result.text);
