How to Use the Housecall Pro MCP in Vercel AI SDK

Q: Can I show Housecall Pro job status in the AI SDK UI?

Yes, stream the results of listjobs directly into your component render loop. The data populates your UI as the agent processes the request.

Stream real-time Housecall Pro data directly into your React or Next.js UI using the AI SDK MCP server.

Perplexity

Real-time job tracking in your interface

Feed live service data into your frontend components as it arrives. Your users see updates the moment they happen without staring at loading spinners. Use `list_jobs` to pull the latest schedule and `get_job` to display specific service details directly in your React state.

Instant invoice and estimate generation

Build UI triggers that generate billing documents on the fly. Your customers get accurate paperwork while the technician is still on-site. Call `list_invoices` or `list_estimates` to fetch existing records, then use the data to populate your checkout or review flows.

Dynamic customer management for Housecall Pro

Put your customer database at the center of your application. Search and verify contact info instantly without leaving your app environment. Use `list_customers` to find records and `get_customer` to pull specific contact history for your support dashboard.

Setup guide

Set up Housecall Pro 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 Housecall Pro 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 Housecall Pro transactions",
});

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

Common questions about Housecall Pro MCP in Vercel AI SDK

Connect via the HTTP transport using your endpoint URL. Once initialized, your AI client pulls tool definitions directly from the server to handle data requests.

Yes, stream the results of `list_jobs` directly into your component render loop. The data populates your UI as the agent processes the request.

The server expects an endpoint token for every request. Configure your auth provider to pass this token in the headers when you initialize the client.

It depends on your network latency and the API response time. Because it uses a direct transport, you get the raw JSON back as soon as the server finishes the query.

Your customer names, addresses, and billing details stay within your secure transport pipe. The server uses ephemeral connections that clear once your session ends.
