How to Use the CloudConvert MCP in Vercel AI SDK
Let your Vercel AI SDK app convert over 200 file formats in real-time without blocking the main thread.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect CloudConvert MCP to Vercel AI SDK
Create your Vinkius account to connect CloudConvert 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.
Live file conversions with Vercel AI SDK
`create_conversion_job` triggers file format changes on the fly while streaming the status back to your frontend. Users don't stare at loading spinners because this MCP Server passes raw status updates straight into your UI components. You get real-time progress bars by letting your model handle the upload and conversion parameters. The Vercel AI SDK handles the active connection, meaning your users see their files change from PDF to DOCX live.
Track active conversion pipelines
`get_conversion_job_details` and `get_conversion_task_details` expose the exact state of every running file transformation. This MCP connection delivers progress metrics so you can render native UI components without polling hacks. There is no guessing if a heavy video transcode is stuck. The model checks the specific task IDs, allowing your frontend to display live processing percentages.
Manage active operations and webhooks
`list_cloudconvert_webhooks` lists your configured endpoints so the agent knows where completion notifications are going. This keeps your Edge Functions fast since you only run code when CloudConvert fires a webhook. Use `list_available_conversion_ops` to dynamically query which formats your account currently supports. It keeps your interface clean by showing users only the options that actually work for their specific files.

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({
