Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect New Relic AI (LLM Observability) MCP to Vercel AI SDK
Create your Vinkius account to connect New Relic AI (LLM Observability) 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.
Real-time cost and latency tracking
Feed your UI live performance metrics by piping `query_llm_costs` and `query_llm_latency` into your stream. You get instant visibility into token usage and response times without blocking the user experience. This MCP Server connects your frontend to telemetry data so your users see exactly how models behave. It is built to keep your edge functions lean and your metrics transparent.
Audit model errors and feedback loops
Expose `query_llm_errors` and `query_llm_feedback` to capture what happens when models fail or receive negative user sentiment. You can map these events to UI components for immediate debugging. Your application logic stays responsive while the background tools gather the necessary diagnostic data. It removes the guesswork from debugging production LLM interactions.
Automated telemetry event logging
Use `post_custom_event` to push application-specific state changes back into your monitoring stack. It acts as a bridge between user actions and your observability backend. This keeps your event logs synced with user activity. You monitor the full lifecycle of a request from the initial prompt to the final feedback loop.

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.
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 New Relic AI (LLM Observability) transactions",
});
console.log(text);
await mcpClient.close(); Independent Platform Disclaimer: Vinkius is an independent platform and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, verified by, or otherwise authorized by New Relic AI.
