How to Use the Files.com MCP in Mastra AI

Q: Can I require human approval before Mastra AI deletes a Files.com asset?

Yes, you can configure requireToolApproval for the deletefile tool. Mastra AI will pause the workflow and wait for an operator's signal before removing any data from Files.com.

Q: Where is my Files.com activity history stored during Mastra AI executions?

The listactivityhistory tool pulls audit logs directly from your storage account. Our MCP Server processes these logs in memory without caching them, ensuring your compliance data remains private.

Build resilient Mastra AI workflows that automate your Files.com directories with built-in retries.

Automate Files.com folder creation in Mastra AI steps

Stop worrying about API timeouts during batch operations. When your Mastra AI agent uses this MCP Server to run `create_folder`, the framework automatically handles retries with exponential backoff if the Files.com endpoint is busy. You can chain this tool into multi-step workflows. For example, if a folder creation succeeds, the workflow immediately triggers `list_users` to assign team access without writing custom glue code.

Build conditional file cleanup pipelines

Let this MCP Server handle file retention policies autonomously. Your agent can check file ages using `get_file_details` and make branching decisions based on what it finds. If a file is expired, Mastra AI routes the workflow to `delete_file`. If it fails, the built-in error handling notifies your admin instead of crashing the entire script.

Audit team access with human-in-the-loop steps

Protect sensitive directories by requiring admin approval before changing permissions. Your agent uses `list_permissions` to find over-exposed folders and queues them for review. Using Mastra AI's human-in-the-loop triggers, the workflow pauses until an admin approves the change, then proceeds to clean up the directory access.

Setup guide

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

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

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