How to Use the General Motors MCP in Mastra AI

Q: Can Mastra AI retry failed General Motors commands?

Yes. If startvehicle times out, the framework's exponential backoff kicks in and tries again automatically.

Q: Does Mastra AI support human approval for General Motors actions?

Yes. You can configure lockdoors and other physical commands to pause execution until an admin clicks approve.

Q: How does the agent know which car to command?

Every tool requires a VIN. You pull the list using getvehicles and pass the specific ID to the next step in the workflow.

Q: Is diagnostic data stored permanently by the MCP Server?

We process raw telemetry from getvehiclediagnostics. The server operates on a zero-trust model, meaning Vinkius never caches your engine fault codes or tire pressure readings.

Perplexity

Chain GM Commands in Mastra AI

Build multi-step sequences that actually work in production. Use `get_vehicles` to find a VIN, then pass that exact ID to `get_charge_status` to check the battery level. If the charge is low, your workflow branches automatically. It can trigger `start_vehicle` to precondition the battery, all handled by the built-in retry logic if the API times out.

Automate Fleet Maintenance Checks

Stop manually checking odometers across your business. Set up a daily workflow that runs `get_odometer` and `get_vehicle_diagnostics` across your entire fleet every night. The agent processes the raw data on its own. If it detects a fault code or high mileage, it alerts your mechanics. You just spread mcpClient.listTools() into your agent and let the engine run.

Secure Physical Actions with MCP

Remote commands need strict guardrails. When your agent tries to run `unlock_doors` or `stop_vehicle`, you need absolute certainty it makes the right call. Mastra handles this with requireToolApproval. A human reviews the action before the car actually unlocks, keeping physical security tight while maintaining automation.

Setup guide

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

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

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