Perplexity

Automate Lockdown Branching

The `lockdown_kisi_lock` tool executes emergency door securing protocols through Mastra AI workflows. If a threat is detected, your agent fires the lockdown command and immediately evaluates the response. Network drops happen during emergencies. Mastra AI catches any timeout and retries the tool call with exponential backoff. You can chain `check_kisi_status` right after to verify the API confirms the door is actually secured.

Provision Access Conditionally

Feed `list_kisi_users` into a workflow to audit your active credential holders. When an employee departs, the agent checks their current standing before making decisions. You build conditional branches around `get_kisi_user` and `list_kisi_groups`. If the user belongs to the IT group, the workflow notifies an admin. If they are a standard guest, it revokes access and logs the event.

Manage Multi-Site Facilities

Run `list_kisi_places` to pull every physical building your organization controls. Mastra AI can iterate through this array, running health checks on each facility automatically. The agent uses `get_kisi_place` to grab specific site details, then pulls the hardware list with `list_kisi_locks`. You deploy this entire server-monitoring loop to any cloud provider with a single command.

Setup guide

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

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

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

Common questions about Kisi MCP in Mastra AI

Install @mastra/mcp@latest. Instantiate MCPClient with your endpoint URL, call mcpClient.listTools(), and spread them into your Agent's tool array.

You configure requireToolApproval on the agent. The workflow pauses when it hits the unlock tool and waits for an admin to click approve.

Mastra handles the 429 errors automatically. The workflow engine pauses, applies exponential backoff, and retries the tool call without failing the entire run.

The client auto-detects between SSE and Streamable HTTP. You just provide the URL and it handles the connection protocol.

This MCP Server pulls direct physical access logs and building entry timestamps. Mastra processes this sensitive telemetry in memory during the workflow execution and discards it based on your retention settings.
