How to Use the EIA Full Access — U.S. Energy Intelligence MCP in Vercel AI SDK

Q: How do I connect EIA Full Access — U.S. Energy Intelligence to the Vercel AI SDK?

Install @ai-sdk/mcp and call createMCPClient. Pass the Vinkius endpoint URL to the HTTP transport layer. Call mcpClient.tools() to expose the 34 endpoints to streamText or generateText.

Build React dashboards that stream federal energy metrics in real time using the Vercel AI SDK.

Perplexity

Render Grid Metrics Instantly

`get_grid_demand` and `get_plant_generation` pull live power data straight into your Next.js frontend. The Vercel AI SDK streams the raw JSON response directly to the client, rendering charts before the EIA API finishes the full request. You skip the loading states entirely. When users ask for Texas grid load versus nuclear output via `get_nuclear_outages`, the numbers populate the UI instantly.

Feed the Vercel AI SDK MCP Server Gas Prices

`get_natgas_prices` and `get_natgas_storage` fetch Henry Hub spot prices and underground inventory levels. Your frontend components render the weekly storage report numbers the second they hit the wire. Traders don't wait for batch updates. Developers pipe `get_short_term_outlook` projections into a Svelte or Vue interface, letting users interact with 18-month supply forecasts without page reloads.

Map Domestic Oil Movements

`get_crude_imports` and `get_refinery_operations` expose the exact barrel counts hitting domestic ports. Developers map this data into interactive UI widgets that update as the agent parses the response. Edge functions handle the routing. You build a dashboard tracking `get_petroleum_stocks`, and the AI client formats the commercial reserve figures into a clean table while the user watches.

Setup guide

Set up EIA Full Access — U.S. Energy Intelligence 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 EIA Full Access — U.S. Energy Intelligence 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 EIA Full Access — U.S. Energy Intelligence transactions",
});

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

Common questions about EIA Full Access — U.S. Energy Intelligence MCP in Vercel AI SDK

Install `@ai-sdk/mcp` and call `createMCPClient`. Pass the Vinkius endpoint URL to the HTTP transport layer. Call `mcpClient.tools()` to expose the 34 endpoints to `streamText` or `generateText`.

Yes. The SDK streams the tool execution results directly to your React or Next.js frontend. You map the arrays from `get_state_energy_data` to your charting library as the chunks arrive.

The Vinkius MCP server responds in milliseconds, but the federal API dictates the final payload speed. Streaming the response masks this delay. Users see data populating immediately.

No. Vinkius handles the EIA authentication. You provide a single endpoint token to your MCP setup.

The server processes requests for public federal datasets like `get_generator_inventory` and `get_coal_prices`. Vinkius isolates your queries in a V8 sandbox that destroys itself after execution. No query parameters or returned barrel counts touch persistent storage.
