Real-time inventory visibility with AI SDK

Your React components can now display warehouse status as the AI processes it. By calling `list_orders` and `list_materials` through the SDK, you skip the loading spinners and show users live updates. Everything happens over the wire as the model executes. You'll see stock levels and SKU details populate your UI components the moment the data hits your client.

Audit warehouse operations in your app

Track who moved what and when without building custom logging dashboards. Hook into `list_transactions` and `list_users` to render audit trails directly inside your dashboard. It makes troubleshooting shifts and quantity adjustments simple. You get the raw transaction data piped straight into your frontend state.

Manage order fulfillment logic

Use `get_order` to pull specific fulfillment requirements and picker assignments. You can build custom interfaces that react to these details immediately. It handles the heavy lifting of data fetching so your UI stays responsive. Just define the tool calls and watch the order details appear in your application flow.

Setup guide

Set up ItemPath 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 ItemPath 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 ItemPath transactions",
});

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

Common questions about ItemPath MCP in Vercel AI SDK

Install the MCP client package and configure the transport to point at your ItemPath server. Once connected, pass the tools into your generateText call to start querying your warehouse data.

Yes, you can use the authProvider setting to pass your credentials. This ensures your ItemPath connection remains private and scoped to your specific environment.

The SDK streams the tool results as they arrive. This means your UI updates as soon as `list_batches` or `list_orders` returns the requested information.

The SDK will return an error object containing the reason for the failure. You can catch this in your UI code to notify users if a lookup fails.

No. The server acts as a pass-through. Your data lives in your ItemPath account, and this MCP server only reads it when your AI client asks for it.
