Mastra AI agent workflows for Buffer

Chain your social tasks together with conditional logic. Use `list_social_profiles` to identify which accounts need updates, then pass that data to `schedule_social_post` automatically. Mastra AI handles the retries if the connection drops. You define the flow and the framework ensures the task completes.

Handle Buffer errors in Mastra AI

Define custom recovery steps for every social action. If `modify_pending_post` fails due to a network glitch, Mastra AI triggers an immediate retry or alerts your team. This keeps your social operations running without manual oversight. You build the logic once and the agent maintains the state.

Deploy Buffer agents with Mastra AI

Push your social agents to production with a single command. The MCP Server integrates as a native toolset that Mastra AI uses to interact with your Buffer queue. You control the approval loop for every post. Set your agent to pause before execution so you can review content before it goes public.

Setup guide

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

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

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