Perplexity

Real-time conversion tracking

Trigger `track_conversion_purchase` or `track_conversion_signup` directly from your edge functions. Your AI client pushes these events the moment a user completes an action. This bypasses traditional backend bottlenecks. Your UI reflects the updated state instantly as the tools return the results to your frontend.

Direct referral management

Generate unique referral codes on the fly with `create_referral_code` and check their validity using `get_referral_code_status`. You get the exact code back in your stream. Your application handles the response immediately. No need for secondary API calls or extra wait times for your users.

Audit your referral rewards

Display reward history by calling `list_referral_rewards` and mapping the output to your components. You see the data structure exactly as the API provides it. This setup keeps your logic inside your components. You control how the user sees their rewards without complex state management.

Setup guide

Set up Friendbuy 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 Friendbuy 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 Friendbuy transactions",
});

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