How to Use the Bonusly MCP in Mastra AI

Q: How do I restrict certain Bonusly actions in Mastra AI?

Use Mastra's requireToolApproval setting on sensitive actions. This prevents the agent from calling givebonus without explicit human confirmation.

Automate milestone rewards with this Mastra AI MCP Server

Setting up automatic anniversary gifts or project completion rewards becomes trivial when you wire your workflows to this endpoint. Mastra AI can monitor external webhooks, check employee details via `get_user`, and trigger rewards automatically. If a transaction fails due to rate limits, the framework's built-in retry logic kicks in. It attempts the `give_bonus` call again with exponential backoff, ensuring nobody misses their hard-earned points.

Conditional Approval Workflows for Large Bonuses

You can restrict massive point distributions by building human-in-the-loop steps directly into your TS workflows using this MCP Server. When an agent attempts to call `give_bonus` for an amount over your threshold, Mastra pauses execution. The framework waits for an admin approval signal before finalizing the transaction. Once approved, the workflow resumes and validates the user's new balance with `get_my_profile`.

Automated Leaderboard Auditing and Reporting

Program your agents to run weekly audits on your culture metrics without writing cron scripts from scratch. Your Mastra workflows can pull active performance data using `get_leaderboard` on a set schedule. The agent cross-references active tags with `list_hashtags` to see which company values are getting the most traction. It then compiles a neat summary and sends it directly to your management channel.

Setup guide

Set up Bonusly 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 Bonusly 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: "bonusly-mcp-client",
  servers: {
    "bonusly-mcp": {
      url: new URL(
        "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
      ),
    },
  },
});

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

const result = await agent.generate(
  "List recent Bonusly transactions"
);
console.log(result.text);

Common questions about Bonusly MCP in Mastra AI

Instantiate the MCP client and spread its output into your agent's tool array. The agent immediately gains access to `give_bonus` and `list_users` for its workflow steps.

Yes, the framework features built-in exponential backoff. If `give_bonus` fails due to network hiccups, Mastra retries the operation until it succeeds or hits your limit.

Use Mastra's `requireToolApproval` setting on sensitive actions. This prevents the agent from calling `give_bonus` without explicit human confirmation.

Definitely, you can write workflow steps that fetch data using `list_bonuses` and `list_redemptions`. The agent compiles these records into weekly digests automatically.

Vinkius handles the authorization layer in a secure, isolated sandbox. Your raw credentials and employee reward records are never written to disk or exposed to the Mastra AI runtime.
