…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Capsulink MCP to Vercel AI SDK
Create your Vinkius account to connect Capsulink to Vercel AI SDK and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Instant URL Shortening in AI SDK Streams
The `shorten_url` tool lets your AI SDK app generate short links on the fly without making users wait for a full page reload. When a user drops a long link into your chat interface, the agent catches it, hits the Capsulink API, and renders the clean URL immediately. Because Vercel's SDK handles streaming tool calls from this MCP Server natively, the shortened link appears in the UI while the rest of the response is still generating. You don't have to build custom loading spinners or poll an external API.
Live Analytics Boards via Vercel AI SDK
The `get_link_daily_stats` tool pulls real-time click breakdowns directly into your streaming React or Next.js components. Your agent can fetch daily trends and pipe the raw numbers straight to a charting library on the frontend. By combining this with `get_link_stats`, you can show total click volume alongside daily spikes. The user sees their marketing data update live as the agent processes the request.
Dynamic Link Redirection and Management
The `edit_link_destination` tool gives your AI client the power to swap out the target URL of any active short link instantly. If a user points out a broken link in your UI, the agent fixes it on the spot without manual database updates. This MCP Server also exposes `delete_link` to purge dead URLs from your account. It keeps your link dashboard clean without leaving the chat interface.
