How to Use the Fax.Plus MCP in Vercel AI SDK
Pipe real-time fax status and transmission logs directly into your Next.js UI using the Vercel AI SDK.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Fax.Plus MCP to Vercel AI SDK
Create your Vinkius account to connect Fax.Plus to Vercel AI SDK and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Track faxes in your Vercel AI SDK frontend
The `get_fax_details` tool retrieves the delivery state, recipient info, and sender details for any document. When you hook this up to your Next.js app, your AI client can watch these details and push live updates straight to the browser. Users don't have to stare at a static loading spinner while waiting for a confirmation. Instead, the server feeds this metadata into `streamText`, letting the interface render the transmission progress line by line.
Render active outbox queues on the edge
The `list_outbox_jobs` tool displays all pending transmissions currently waiting in your queue. Running this on Vercel Edge Functions means your agent can quickly fetch the queue and show users what is happening behind the scenes. If a job gets stuck, the agent can call `cancel_outbox_job` to stop the transmission immediately. This setup keeps your UI snappy because the MCP client handles the API calls in the background while streaming the results.
Select new numbers inside your chat interface
The `search_available_numbers` tool finds purchasable fax numbers based on geographic criteria. Your AI client can present these options to users as they appear, letting them claim a number without leaving the chat. Once they pick one, the agent uses `list_fax_numbers` to show their updated active inventory. This MCP Server setup creates a conversational interface where the client UI updates dynamically as the backend processes the selection.
