How to Use the Diffbot MCP in Mastra AI

Q: Can I use Diffbot for conditional branching in Mastra-ai?

You can. Use the output from analyzepage to decide which branch your Mastra-ai agent should take next based on the content type.

Automate data collection workflows in Mastra-ai. Build resilient agents that extract and process web content without manual intervention.

Perplexity

Automated extraction in Mastra-ai

Trigger `extract_list` or `extract_job` within your Mastra-ai workflow. The server handles the connection while your agent manages the logic. Failure is no longer a blocker. If a fetch fails, your workflow can catch the error and retry or route to a different tool.

Complex data gathering

Use `extract_discussion` and `extract_event` to build comprehensive datasets for your agents. These tools return specific metadata that feeds directly into your branching logic. Your Mastra-ai agents now have a reliable way to get fresh information. You define the process, and the server provides the structured data.

Scalable web ingestion

Deploy your agents knowing the extraction layer is handled. The server supports your Mastra-ai pipelines by converting raw HTML into usable JSON at scale. This removes the need for custom scrapers in your workflow. Your agent focuses on decision-making, not parsing.

Setup guide

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

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

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