Live content injection for Vercel AI SDK

Pipe live CMS data straight into your UI components. Your code uses `create_visual_block` or `update_visual_block` to push changes that your visitors see instantly. Stop waiting for static build cycles. The `list_model_content` tool feeds your React or Next.js components real-time updates while your agent handles the heavy lifting.

Schema-aware data handling

Fetch exact model structures using `get_model_schema` before rendering. This ensures your components match the data shape returned by the server. Your TypeScript code stays clean when you query specific records with `get_single_content`. You avoid manual mapping errors by letting the agent verify the object structure first.

Media and asset management

Grab asset details with `get_media_file` to populate your image and video components dynamically. Your agent manages the link between your CMS media library and your live site. Manage your assets programmatically during runtime. This keeps your media references synced without manual intervention or dashboard toggling.

Setup guide

Set up Builder MCP in Vercel AI SDK

Prerequisites

Node.js 18+ and a TypeScript project
ai + @modelcontextprotocol/sdk packages
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install dependencies

Run npm install ai @modelcontextprotocol/sdk plus your preferred model provider (e.g. @ai-sdk/openai).
2

Create the Streamable HTTP transport

Use StreamableHTTPClientTransport with your Vinkius endpoint URL. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Discover and use tools

Call mcpClient.tools() to auto-discover all Builder tools. Pass them directly to generateText() or streamText() — no manual schema definitions needed.
4

Works with any model provider

Swap openai("gpt-4o") for any AI SDK provider — Anthropic, Google, Mistral. The MCP tools work identically across all supported models.

index.ts

import { experimental_createMCPClient as createMCPClient } from "ai";
import { StreamableHTTPClientTransport } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client/streamableHttp";
import { generateText } from "ai";
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai";

const transport = new StreamableHTTPClientTransport(
  new URL("https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp")
);

const mcpClient = await createMCPClient({ transport });
const tools = await mcpClient.tools();

const { text } = await generateText({
  model: openai("gpt-4o"),
  tools,
  prompt: "List recent Builder transactions",
});

console.log(text);
await mcpClient.close();
