How to Use the Convertio MCP in Vercel AI SDK

Q: How do I add Convertio to my Vercel AI SDK project?

Install @ai-sdk/mcp and set up the MCP client with the Vinkius endpoint. Pass the Convertio tools directly to streamText or generateText so your frontend can call them.

Q: Can Vercel AI SDK stream the progress of a Convertio job?

Yes, your Vercel AI SDK application can repeatedly query getconversionstatus and stream those status updates directly to the UI.

Q: How does Convertio handle credit tracking in Vercel AI SDK?

The streaming agent can call getaccountbalance during an active Vercel AI SDK session. This lets you display remaining Convertio credits directly in your user dashboard.

Get your Vercel AI SDK app converting files and streaming the status directly to your frontend users without loading spinners.

Stream live conversions in Vercel AI SDK

This MCP Server lets your Vercel AI SDK application trigger `convert_file` or `quick_convert_to_pdf` and pipe the progress updates straight into your frontend. Your Next.js interface updates in real-time as Convertio processes the file. The SDK handles the incoming stream, letting you show progress bars the moment `get_conversion_status` reports a finished job.

Wipe Convertio files from Vercel AI SDK

Leaving temp files on third-party servers is a security nightmare for Next.js apps. Your streaming Vercel AI SDK agent can call `delete_conversion_job` the second the user downloads their converted file. Because this runs inside Vercel Edge Functions, you don't need heavy backend workers to clean up. The SDK executes the call, wipes the Convertio cache, and updates the client UI in one swift motion.

Check Convertio formats in Vercel AI SDK

Avoid burning API credits on unsupported file types in your React frontend. Let your Vercel AI SDK application query `list_common_formats` first so users get instant feedback before hitting the conversion API. If a user uploads an odd format, the SDK matches it against the Convertio list and warns them before triggering `convert_file`, keeping your API credit balance healthy.

Setup guide

Set up Convertio 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 Convertio 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 Convertio transactions",
});

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