Automate food discovery in Mastra AI

Integrate `search_fatsecret_foods` into your agent workflows to automate diet logging. Mastra AI can trigger these searches whenever a user updates their goals, ensuring your agents act on current data. It handles the search logic for you. You just define the agent, add the tool, and watch it pull information from the database.

Get granular macro metrics

Use `get_fatsecret_food_details` to feed your multi-step workflows precise nutrition data. Your agents can verify portion sizes against user requirements, making automated diet plans more accurate. This provides the raw numbers your agents need to make decisions. It turns abstract food requests into structured macro data.

Handle tool execution failures

Mastra AI manages the retries if the network blips during a request. This MCP Server ensures that your agents remain resilient when interacting with external food databases. You get consistent results for your agent pipelines. It keeps your automation logic running without manual intervention.

Setup guide

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

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

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