Perplexity

Stream live community health updates to your UI

The `get_community_health_summary` tool fetches platform distribution stats and member growth trends directly through your interface. By streaming this data in real-time, your UI updates instantly as the AI client fetches the metrics from the MCP Server. You don't make your users stare at a blank loading spinner while waiting for community stats. Your React or Next.js app renders active contributor numbers and platform growth patterns as they arrive from the crowd.dev API.

Fetch and render member details in real-time

The `get_member_details` tool retrieves full profiles, social links, and internal CRM notes for any community member. Your AI client calls this tool to resolve identities across GitHub, Twitter, and LinkedIn instantly. Because you are using the Vercel AI SDK, these resolved profiles stream straight into your frontend component. You can display engagement scores and contribution histories to your team without page refreshes.

Manage community tasks from your MCP Server

The `list_community_tasks` tool exposes open tasks, priorities, and assigned manager references directly to your application. Your UI displays these operational items as the agent pulls them from crowd.dev. You hook this tool into `streamText` to let your agent update task lists on the fly. This keeps your community management team aligned without leaving your custom dashboard.

Setup guide

Set up crowd.dev (LFX CDP) 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 crowd.dev (LFX CDP) 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 crowd.dev (LFX CDP) transactions",
});

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