How to Use the Cisco Meraki MCP in Vercel AI SDK
Build live network dashboards in React. Vercel AI SDK streams Meraki device status and client lists straight to your frontend.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Cisco Meraki MCP to Vercel AI SDK
Create your Vinkius account to connect Cisco Meraki 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.
Stream Live Network Topology
`list_organization_networks` pulls your entire Meraki footprint so your Vercel AI SDK app can render active sites instantly. You feed the resulting network IDs into `get_network_summary` to map out total client counts and hardware status. Your Next.js frontend doesn't wait for a massive batch query to finish. The agent streams these site metrics directly into the UI components as they arrive over the MCP connection.
Vercel AI SDK MCP Server Integration
`get_device_details` grabs the exact configuration and current state of any switch or access point using its serial number. End users type a complaint into your chat interface, and the agent immediately checks the hardware. Combine this with `list_network_clients` to display exactly who is eating up bandwidth on a specific SSID. The React application updates in real time while the LLM parses the MAC addresses and usage metrics.
Render Live Hardware Audits
`list_organization_inventory` extracts every claimed serial number across your cloud-managed deployment. The agent compares active hardware against stored licenses without requiring manual CSV exports. Running this through `streamText` means your dashboard populates rows of access points and firewalls dynamically. It gives IT teams immediate visibility into spare inventory right from your custom web tool.

Prerequisites
- Node.js 18+ and a TypeScript project
-
ai+@modelcontextprotocol/sdkpackages - Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token
- 1
Install dependencies
Run
npm install ai @modelcontextprotocol/sdkplus your preferred model provider (e.g.@ai-sdk/openai). - 2
Create the Streamable HTTP transport
Use
StreamableHTTPClientTransportwith 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 Cisco Meraki tools. Pass them directly togenerateText()orstreamText()— 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.
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 Cisco Meraki transactions",
});
console.log(text);
await mcpClient.close(); Independent Platform Disclaimer: Vinkius is an independent platform and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, verified by, or otherwise authorized by Cisco Meraki.
