How to Use the NASA Media & Patents — Images, Videos & Technology Transfer MCP in Mastra AI
Build reliable, automated space-tech research workflows with Mastra AI and the NASA Media & Patents MCP Server.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect NASA Media & Patents — Images, Videos & Technology Transfer MCP to Mastra AI
Create your Vinkius account to connect NASA Media & Patents — Images, Videos & Technology Transfer to Mastra AI and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Automated media retrieval in Mastra AI
Build agents that automatically find and categorize space imagery. Mastra handles the logic, retrying failed calls if the NASA API stutters. Use `search_media` within a workflow step. The server returns the list, and your agent moves to the next action.
Patent scouting workflows
Create a pipeline that scans NASA technology transfer databases for specific industry keywords. It notifies you when a relevant patent appears. Run `search_patents` as part of a recurring task. The agent parses the output and triggers your notification logic.
Error-resilient data gathering
Mastra ensures your agent gracefully handles missing metadata or broken links. It manages the state of your search operations automatically. Use `get_media_metadata` to verify assets. If a connection drops, the workflow engine handles the retry logic.
