Automated Publishing Workflows

Chain `create_article` into your Mastra agent to handle the full draft-to-publish process. If the API hits a limit, the agent retries automatically. You define the logic for when an article is ready. The framework keeps the state and handles the execution flow.

Content Cleanup Operations

Use `unpublish_article` and `update_article` to keep your feed clean. Your agent can act on specific triggers like outdated code blocks. It removes the manual burden of managing old content. You set the rules and let the agent perform the cleanup.

Organization Management

Coordinate team posts using `get_organization_articles` and `get_organization_users`. Your agent monitors team activity across the platform. It scales your operations without manual oversight. You gain visibility into how your organization performs on the site.

Setup guide

Set up DEV.to 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 DEV.to 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: "devto-mcp-client",
  servers: {
    "devto-mcp": {
      url: new URL(
        "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
      ),
    },
  },
});

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

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

Common questions about DEV.to MCP in Mastra AI

Add the server to your agents file. You can then trigger tools like `create_article` inside your custom workflow steps.

Mastra includes built-in retry logic. If the server returns a rate limit error, the agent waits and tries again based on your config.

You can use the requireToolApproval setting. This forces the agent to pause before calling `create_article` until you click approve.

Errors bubble up to your workflow handler. You can define custom branches to notify you if an article fails to post.

The server operates in a sandbox. It only interacts with your account through the specific tools you enable in your Mastra agent.
