Live inventory updates in Vercel AI SDK

Pipe `update_ca_inventory` results directly into your stream to show users exactly when stock levels change. Your React components react instantly to the underlying data flow. This bypasses standard loading states. The user watches the update happen as the agent confirms the new count.

Fetch product specs for Vercel AI SDK UI

Use `get_ca_product_details` to pull technical specs and descriptions into your dashboard components. It turns raw JSON into clear, readable product pages without extra API boilerplate. Your app handles the display while the MCP server manages the heavy lifting. Data arrives formatted and ready for your components.

Query catalog items via Vercel AI SDK

Invoke `list_ca_products` to populate search results as a user types a query. It keeps your interface snappy by pulling only what is needed from your marketplace catalog. This keeps your Edge Functions lean. You get the exact list you need without polling the entire database.

Setup guide

Set up ChannelAdvisor (Rithum) 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 ChannelAdvisor (Rithum) 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 ChannelAdvisor (Rithum) transactions",
});

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

Common questions about ChannelAdvisor (Rithum) MCP in Vercel AI SDK

Install the MCP client packages and point them to your Vinkius endpoint. You initialize the client in your server-side route and inject the tools directly into your streamText call.

Yes, you call `list_ca_orders` within your agent logic. The tool returns the order queue as a structured object that you can map directly to your frontend table.

It does. Because the server supports HTTP transport, the tool outputs stream into your UI components without blocking the main thread.

Your app remains responsive because the MCP server handles the request asynchronously. You can display a placeholder while the data resolves.

Your credentials never touch the browser. Vinkius secures the connection via an endpoint token, and your data stays within the encrypted transport layer.
