How to Use the Hexometer MCP in Vercel AI SDK

Q: Can the Vercel AI SDK stream Hexometer alerts to my users?

Yes. Call listrecentalerts and the SDK will chunk the active monitoring notifications into your React frontend. Users see the 404 spikes or downtime warnings appear in real-time.

Build real-time site monitoring dashboards in Next.js by streaming Hexometer data directly through the Vercel AI SDK.

Stream Uptime Metrics to React

Your Vercel AI SDK application can pull live metrics using `get_uptime_stats` and `get_site_health` to render status pages instantly. Instead of making users wait for a large payload to resolve, the agent streams the historical uptime data directly into your frontend components. You get the exact percentage drops and response times without building custom backend polling logic. The MCP integration handles the transport layer while your Next.js app just receives the chunks and updates the DOM.

Run Speed Tests from the Edge

Running `check_speed_desktop` and `check_speed_mobile` through your MCP Server lets you build an interactive diagnostic tool where users type a URL and watch the scores generate. The agent evaluates the asset details and paints the results onto the screen as they arrive. Nobody wants to stare at a spinner while a Lighthouse-style test runs. By calling these endpoints via streamText, the interface updates progressively, showing exactly which JavaScript files are blocking the main thread before the full test even finishes.

Surface SEO Audits via Vercel AI SDK

Connect `run_seo_audit` to an input field and let your users ask for a site breakdown in plain English. The agent triggers the audit, parses the raw output, and builds a custom UI showing meta tag failures or missing canonicals. You can pair this with `check_page_errors` to catch heavy assets ruining the user experience. The SDK processes the tool call and streams the exact failing script URLs right into your Svelte or Vue dashboard.

Setup guide

Set up Hexometer 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 Hexometer 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 Hexometer transactions",
});

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

Common questions about Hexometer MCP in Vercel AI SDK

Install @ai-sdk/mcp and map the endpoint using createMCPClient. You pass the HTTP transport URL, then inject the tools straight into streamText.

Yes. Call `list_recent_alerts` and the SDK will chunk the active monitoring notifications into your React frontend. Users see the 404 spikes or downtime warnings appear in real-time.

It works perfectly. The MCP connection relies on standard HTTP requests, meaning you can trigger a `check_broken_links` scan without spinning up a heavy Node server.

You skip writing boilerplate wrappers for 11 different endpoints. The agent knows exactly how to format the arguments for `list_monitored_sites` and interpret the response payload on the fly.

The MCP protocol operates in a zero-trust sandbox. The only data transmitted is the target URL being tested for `get_security_status` and SSL health. Vinkius handles the endpoint token ephemerally, meaning your dashboard users never expose their personal credentials to the auditing engine.
