About Convex MCP Server
Connect your Convex deployment to any AI agent and manage your application's data and logic through natural conversation. This server allows you to interact with your real-time database and serverless functions without leaving your AI interface.
The Vercel AI SDK gives every Convex tool full TypeScript type inference, IDE autocomplete, and compile-time error checking. Connect 4 tools through Vinkius and stream results progressively to React, Svelte, or Vue components. works on Edge Functions, Cloudflare Workers, and any Node.js runtime.
What you can do
- Data Fetching — Execute read-only queries to retrieve documents and state from your Convex tables.
- Transactional Updates — Run mutations to modify data with full ACID guarantees directly from the agent.
- Side Effects & APIs — Trigger Convex actions for external API calls, heavy computation, or non-transactional logic.
- Flexible Execution — Call functions using standard colon notation or URL-style identifiers for maximum compatibility.
The Convex MCP Server exposes 4 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Vercel AI SDK in under two minutes — credentials fully managed, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

Why Use Vercel AI SDK with the Convex MCP Server
Vercel AI SDK provides unique advantages when paired with Convex through the Model Context Protocol.
TypeScript-first: every MCP tool gets full type inference, IDE autocomplete, and compile-time error checking out of the box
Framework-agnostic core works with Next.js, Nuxt, SvelteKit, or any Node.js runtime. same Convex integration everywhere
Built-in streaming UI primitives let you display Convex tool results progressively in React, Svelte, or Vue components
Edge-compatible: the AI SDK runs on Vercel Edge Functions, Cloudflare Workers, and other edge runtimes for minimal latency
Convex + Vercel AI SDK Use Cases
Practical scenarios where Vercel AI SDK combined with the Convex MCP Server delivers measurable value.
AI-powered web apps: build dashboards that query Convex in real-time and stream results to the UI with zero loading states
API backends: create serverless endpoints that orchestrate Convex tools and return structured JSON responses to any frontend
Chatbots with tool use: embed Convex capabilities into conversational interfaces with streaming responses and tool call visibility
Internal tools: build admin panels where team members interact with Convex through natural language queries
Example Prompts for Convex in Vercel AI SDK
Ready-to-use prompts you can give your Vercel AI SDK agent to start working with Convex immediately.
"Run the Convex query 'messages:list' with no arguments."
"Call the mutation 'users:create' with the argument { "name": "Alice" }."
"Execute the function 'tasks/get_all' using run_function."
