How to Use the Gingr MCP in Vercel AI SDK
Stream Gingr kennel data directly into your Vercel AI SDK interface for real-time pet care management.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Gingr MCP to Vercel AI SDK
Create your Vinkius account to connect Gingr 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.
Live check-in monitoring with Vercel AI SDK
Feed live boarding data into your front-end components. Use `list_active_checkins` to show your staff exactly who is in the building, updating your UI components as the API responds. Your users won't see a loading spinner. The data streams from your MCP server directly into the view, keeping your kennel dashboard reactive and accurate.
Instant owner lookups in your React app
Connect your search bar to `find_owner_by_email` or `find_owner_by_phone`. This lets your agents pull up contact information the moment a client walks through the door. It removes the need for manual record digging. The system pushes the relevant profile details to the screen, allowing your staff to focus on the pet, not the database.
Verify Gingr connectivity in your edge functions
Run `verify_api_connection` as part of your server-side initialization. This ensures your app is talking to the correct facility endpoint before any data requests start. It catches authentication issues early. Your edge functions remain lean, only processing requests when the server confirms the connection is live.
