How to Use the KanbanTool MCP in Vercel AI SDK

Q: How do I stream KanbanTool board data using the Vercel AI SDK?

Call mcpClient.tools() to retrieve the tools, then pass them into streamText or generateText. This lets your frontend stream live updates from listboardtasks directly into your React or Next.js components.

Q: How can my application track card history in real-time?

Pass the listtaskactivities tool to your streaming agent. Your application can render the history of updates as the AI retrieves them, providing a live audit trail directly in your custom dashboard.

Build real-time Next.js boards where your Vercel AI SDK client updates and streams KanbanTool cards directly into your frontend UI via our MCP Server.

Stream live board updates to your Vercel AI SDK UI

The `list_board_tasks` tool lets your Vercel AI SDK client fetch active board items and stream them directly to your React components without visual lag. Users watch task cards populate in real-time as the agent gathers the data, eliminating loading spinners entirely. You can run this MCP setup inside Edge Functions to query `get_board_details` and instantly render a visual layout of your team's current work-in-progress. By avoiding heavy server-side re-renders, your Next.js application stays incredibly fast while displaying live Kanban data.

Direct card updates from your AI client

The `update_task_details` tool gives your edge-rendered AI agent the ability to modify card descriptions and move tasks across columns instantly. Your users see the changes happen live in their browser as the streaming response handles the API handshake. By passing this tool alongside `create_task_card` inside your Vercel AI SDK setup, you build a fully interactive interface where users tell the AI to re-prioritize a sprint. The backend executes the API calls, and the frontend updates the DOM on the fly.

Clean clutter with an automated MCP Server setup

The `archive_task_card` tool allows your AI client to clean up abandoned cards on your board based on real-time user requests. Instead of waiting for a full page refresh, the streaming interface visually fades the archived card out of the UI immediately. By combining this with `list_task_activities`, your Vercel AI SDK application can show a live activity log right next to the board. Your users can see exactly why a card was moved or archived without ever having to manually refresh their browser.

Setup guide

Set up KanbanTool 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 KanbanTool 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 KanbanTool transactions",
});

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

Call `mcpClient.tools()` to retrieve the tools, then pass them into `streamText` or `generateText`. This lets your frontend stream live updates from `list_board_tasks` directly into your React or Next.js components.

Yes, the server runs in a V8 Isolate sandbox on Vinkius, making it fully compatible with Vercel Edge Functions. Your AI client can query `get_board_details` with minimal latency from anywhere in the world.

You do not need to manage individual API keys in your frontend code. Vinkius handles the connection securely, allowing your Vercel AI SDK client to authenticate via a single secure endpoint token.

Pass the `list_task_activities` tool to your streaming agent. Your application can render the history of updates as the AI retrieves them, providing a live audit trail directly in your custom dashboard.

Your layout data is safe because all requests to fetch your board metadata via `list_boards` run through Vinkius's zero-trust, ephemeral V8 sandboxes. Your actual board layouts, task names, and user profiles are never stored or logged on our servers.
