Live payment status in your frontend

Feed your UI with live transaction states by piping `get_payment_status` directly into your stream. You stop staring at loading spinners and start showing actual bank clearing progress to your users. This MCP Server pushes raw data through your Edge Functions. It's built for developers who want to show the user exactly what is happening with their cash flow the second it changes.

Manage customers inside your react components

Trigger `create_new_customer` and `get_customer_details` directly from your client-side logic. You handle onboarding without ever leaving the context of your application state. Your interface reacts to the data returned by the tool. If a customer is missing, you trigger the create flow and update the DOM immediately. It’s tight, fast, and keeps the user in the loop.

Automate recurring billing logic

Use `list_recurring_payments` to display active subscriptions within your dashboard. You get a clean array of billing cycles that you can map to your UI components in seconds. When a user needs to stop a charge, `stop_pending_payment` handles the request. You provide the command and the MCP Server executes it against the API, updating your state instantly.

Setup guide

Set up GoCardless 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 GoCardless 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 GoCardless transactions",
});

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

Common questions about GoCardless MCP in Vercel AI SDK

Install the MCP client and pass the tool registry into your generateText call. You handle the connection through the standard transport layer and the tools become available to your agent.

Yes, you use `list_active_mandates` to pull current authorizations. It helps you verify user permissions before you attempt any billing actions.

Your agent inspects the response from the tools. If a call fails, you catch the error in your stream and prompt the user for a fix.

The server uses ephemeral sessions and zero-trust principles. Your sensitive bank records never touch the AI memory unless you explicitly pass them through the tool result.

It touches PII like bank account identifiers and payment status logs. We restrict access to only the specific records required for the tools you invoke.
