How to Use the iFood MCP in Mastra AI

Q: Can I run these workflows on a cron schedule?

Easily. You can trigger Mastra agents to run getorders every minute, filtering for pending tickets to ensure no order sits unacknowledged.

Resilient Order Processing Pipelines in Mastra AI

Mastra AI lets you build multi-step workflows that don't break when a restaurant gets slammed. If `get_orders` detects a pending ticket, the workflow triggers `get_order_details` and automatically retries if the network hiccups. By integrating this MCP Server with Mastra's workflow engine, you can set up conditional branches. For instance, if an item is out of stock, the agent automatically runs `update_catalog_item` to pause it.

Automated Store Hours and Schedule Syncing

Managing holiday hours across fifty locations is tedious. This MCP toolset lets your Mastra agent query `get_business_hours` and execute batch updates using `update_business_hours` across your entire fleet. If a store closes early due to bad weather, the agent runs `get_store_details` to verify the location status, then updates the hours, handling any API rate limits gracefully behind the scenes.

Smart Driver Dispatching with Human-in-the-Loop

You don't want an agent assigning couriers blindly. Mastra AI's approval workflows let you pause execution right before calling `assign_driver` to let a human dispatcher sign off. The agent gathers logistics data using `get_logistics`, prepares the dispatch plan, and waits for a green light. Once approved, it updates the order state via `update_order_status` instantly.

Setup guide

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

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

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

Common questions about iFood MCP in Mastra AI

Mastra's built-in workflow engine automatically handles retries with exponential backoff. If `get_catalog` hits a limit, the system pauses and retries without failing the entire run.

Yes. You can feed catalog updates into a workflow that calls `update_catalog_item` to adjust prices or toggle item availability based on your inventory.

You instantiate the client using Vinkius's secure endpoint. The agent automatically registers tools like `get_stores` and `update_order_status` for immediate use.

Easily. You can trigger Mastra agents to run `get_orders` every minute, filtering for pending tickets to ensure no order sits unacknowledged.

We use ephemeral V8 isolates to run the MCP Server. Your merchant keys and customer delivery addresses are decrypted only in memory during the execution of tools like `get_logistics`.
