Stream live calendar updates with Vercel AI SDK

`create_event` acts as the core engine for turning raw user chat into clean, scheduled calendar blocks on the fly. When your user types a natural language phrase, the Vercel AI SDK streams the resulting event creation live to the screen, skipping the typical loading states. This MCP Server integration lets you pass tools directly from the server into the stream. While the user is still reading the response, the UI populates with the newly scheduled slot.

Real-time schedule checking on the edge

`list_events` pulls calendar data across a specific date range directly inside your edge functions. This tool lets you compare availability instantly when a user asks to reschedule an event. By avoiding heavy server-side roundtrips, the Vercel AI SDK processes the date range validation instantly. The client uses this data to update the UI components before the user can click away.

Direct scheduling page rendering

`list_openings` fetches active scheduling pages directly from the user's account. This tool exposes open slots that your UI can map into interactive booking buttons. The MCP connection lets Vercel AI SDK render these options inside your chat window. It keeps the booking loop entirely within your local application interface.

Setup guide

Set up Fantastical 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 Fantastical 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 Fantastical transactions",
});

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