Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect MediaSilo MCP to Vercel AI SDK
Create your Vinkius account to connect MediaSilo to Vercel AI SDK and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Live-stream MediaSilo folders to your UI
Users hate waiting for spinners while a server fetches large video directories. This MCP integration lets you run `list_folders` and `list_projects` in real-time, sending folders straight to the user's browser before the full page loads. By using Edge-compatible functions, your Next.js app renders project trees as they arrive. If a user needs a specific file, the agent uses `get_project_assets` to populate the workspace instantly.
Instant metadata rendering in Vercel AI SDK
When an editor looks for a file, they need technical specs immediately. This server lets your application run `get_asset` and `search_assets` to pull video metadata directly into custom UI components. The client displays resolution, framerate, and upload dates without forcing anyone to log into the main platform. It makes building custom review portals straightforward.
Resolve Quicklinks in real-time
Sharing files usually takes too many clicks. By pairing the MCP Server with your interface, you can call `get_quicklink` and `list_quicklinks` to display active share links side-by-side with your video player. This stops users from digging through email threads to find review pages. The links appear as soon as the agent fetches them, keeping the work moving.
