Perplexity

Live media feeds with AI SDK

Feed NASA imagery directly into your React or Next.js components as the AI agent discovers them. You don't have to wait for a full request cycle to finish. Use `search_media` to locate assets and `get_media_asset` to pull URLs. Your frontend renders the stream instantly.

Real-time metadata injection

Populate your dashboard with mission-specific technical details as they arrive. This MCP Server pushes data that your UI interprets on the fly. Call `get_media_metadata` to grab technical specs. The AI client handles the data flow, keeping your interface snappy and responsive.

Patent research for frontend apps

Expose NASA technology transfer opportunities directly in your user-facing tools. Your users explore patents without leaving your application environment. Trigger `search_patents` to find licensing candidates. The data arrives as raw JSON, ready for your custom table or card components.

Setup guide

Set up NASA Media & Patents — Images, Videos & Technology Transfer 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 NASA Media & Patents — Images, Videos & Technology Transfer 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 NASA Media & Patents — Images, Videos & Technology Transfer transactions",
});

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

Common questions about NASA Media & Patents — Images, Videos & Technology Transfer MCP in Vercel AI SDK

Install the MCP client via npm and initialize the connection with your server URL. Pass the tools from the server into your `streamText` function to start querying data.

Yes. The search tools accept parameters for year ranges and media types. You apply these filters directly within your tool call arguments.

The server returns direct links to high-resolution assets. You just pass those strings to your image tags or media players.

The public NASA API limits requests to 40 per hour per IP. You should implement a caching layer in your app to avoid hitting this ceiling.

Your keys are never exposed to the client-side browser. Keep your credentials in environment variables on your backend or Vercel edge functions.
