Run automated multi-step Cognito Forms workflows with Mastra AI

The `create_entry` tool writes new records to your forms as part of a structured Mastra workflow. If a payment field fails to process, the framework catches the error and triggers your custom retry logic automatically. You define these steps in code, letting your agent run `get_form_fields` to verify schema compliance before sending the payload. The Mastra MCP client gets the live form architecture to prevent validation errors.

Branching logic based on form entry values

The `get_entry` tool pulls deep record details to let Mastra agents make branching decisions. The agent inspects specific answers, routes high-value leads to one path, and triggers immediate follow-ups for others. You don't write complex routing code. Mastra handles the conditional paths natively, letting the agent decide which Cognito Forms MCP tools to run next based on the returned data.

Bulk cleanup and status syncing

The `delete_entry` tool on this MCP server helps your agent clean up spam or outdated submissions based on your custom rules. Mastra schedules these runs, using `search_entries` to find targets and removing them safely. Every tool execution supports human-in-the-loop approval. You can require a manual click in your terminal or dashboard before the agent actually deletes any live record.

Setup guide

Set up Cognito Forms MCP in Mastra AI

Prerequisites

Node.js 18+ and a TypeScript project
@mastra/mcp + @mastra/core packages
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install dependencies
Run npm install @mastra/mcp @mastra/core plus your preferred model provider (e.g. @ai-sdk/openai).
2

Configure the MCPClient
Create an MCPClient with your Vinkius endpoint as a URL object. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Discover and inject tools
Call mcpClient.listTools() and spread the result into your agent's tools object. All Cognito Forms tools become native Mastra tools.
4

Run with any model
Swap openai("gpt-4o") for any AI SDK-compatible provider. Call agent.generate() and the agent routes tool calls through MCP automatically.

agent.ts

import { MCPClient } from "@mastra/mcp";
import { Agent } from "@mastra/core/agent";
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai";

const mcpClient = new MCPClient({
  id: "cognito-forms-mcp-client",
  servers: {
    "cognito-forms-mcp": {
      url: new URL(
        "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
      ),
    },
  },
});

const agent = new Agent({
  name: "Cognito Forms Agent",
  model: openai("gpt-4o"),
  instructions: "You have access to Cognito Forms tools.",
  tools: {
    ...(await mcpClient.listTools()),
  },
});

const result = await agent.generate(
  "List recent Cognito Forms transactions"
);
console.log(result.text);
