Perplexity

Automated work ID resolution

Link raw book inputs to official work identifiers within your agent pipelines. This ensures every step of your workflow uses the correct bibliographic entity. `what_work` retrieves the ID. You then pass this into other functions to keep your data clean.

Conditional bibliographic branching

Execute logic based on the depth of library coverage. If a book has a low score, trigger a fallback search or notify a human researcher. `get_book_coverage` provides the numeric trigger for your agent's conditional steps. You define the thresholds for success.

Multi-step edition discovery

Chain edition lookups to gather every available ISBN for a title. Your agent handles the collection process while you focus on the logic. `thing_isbn` feeds directly into your workflow. It collects all international editions for your database.

Setup guide

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

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

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