How to Use the Cannlytics Strain API MCP in Vercel AI SDK

Q: How do I use the Cannlytics Strain API with the Vercel AI SDK to show flavors in my Next.js app?

You'll use the Vercel AI SDK to call the getflavors tool from this MCP server. The SDK streams the results, which you can then render directly into your React components. No need for complex state management to handle a loading phase.

Q: Can I search for strains using the Cannlytics Strain API and the Vercel AI SDK?

Yes, that's what the searchstrains tool is for. Your agent can use it to find strains based on keywords from the MCP. The results stream back, so you can display them in your UI as they arrive.

Build cannabis data apps that feel instant. Stream strain info from Cannlytics directly to your UI with the Vercel AI SDK.

Perplexity

Live Strain Details, No Spinners

Your user types a strain name. Instead of a loading icon, they watch the data appear live in your React components. The Vercel AI SDK streams results from the `get_strain` tool directly into your UI. Build a complete strain profile view this way. Use `get_effects` and `get_flavors` to populate different parts of the page as the data arrives. It’s a much better user experience than waiting for a big JSON blob to load.

Interactive Discovery with Vercel AI SDK

Let users explore your strain database, not just search it. The `search_strains` tool gives you a starting point. From there, you can chain requests to build a rich, interactive browser. A user picks a strain, and you can immediately call `get_similar_strains` to show alternatives. Because it's all streaming, the UI updates feel fast and connected. This MCP Server gives you the backend tools to make it happen.

Build UIs That Show Their Work

The AI SDK isn't just for generating text. It's for moving data. Hook the Cannlytics tools up to your UI and let your agent populate charts, lists, and tables on the fly. Imagine a flavor profile chart that builds itself using data from `get_flavors`. Or a tag cloud of effects from `get_effects`. This is what an MCP connection enables, and it's how you build frontends that feel alive.

Setup guide

Set up Cannlytics Strain API 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 Cannlytics Strain API 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 Cannlytics Strain API transactions",
});

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