How to Use the Nodereal MCP in Vercel AI SDK
Use the Vercel AI SDK to stream live Aptos and EVM data from Nodereal directly into your React and Next.js apps.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Nodereal MCP to Vercel AI SDK
Create your Vinkius account to connect Nodereal 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.
Stream On-Chain Data to Your UI
Stop making your users wait. This tool lets your agent fetch and stream data directly into your frontend components. When your agent, connected to this MCP Server, calls `eth_get_balance` or `nr_get_token_balance_20`, the Vercel AI SDK renders the balance in your UI the instant the numbers arrive, not after a loading spinner finishes. It's perfect for building live dashboards or portfolio trackers. You can show a user's NFT collection by streaming the output of `nr_get_nft_inventory`, populating the grid as each item is found. Your app feels alive because the data appears in real time.
Instant Transaction Pre-flight Checks
Let users see the outcome of a transaction before they sign it. Your agent can take user input and run it through `aptos_simulate_transaction` or `eth_estimate_gas`. The results stream back immediately, so your UI can display the expected cost and outcome without a page refresh. This isn't just for gas estimates. Use `eth_call` to test a contract interaction and show the return value directly in your app. Your users get immediate feedback, which means fewer failed transactions and less wasted gas.
Build a Real-Time Block Explorer with the Vercel AI SDK
This MCP Server gives you the raw ingredients to build your own specialized block explorer. Have your agent grab the latest block with `eth_get_block_by_number`. Then, you can use `nr_get_transaction_receipts_by_block_number` to get every single transaction inside it. Because the Vercel AI SDK streams the response, you can build a UI that populates the transaction list as it's being fetched. It's a much better experience than waiting for the entire block's data to load. This approach works for both EVM and Aptos chains, using tools like `aptos_get_blocks_by_height`.
Set up Nodereal MCP in Vercel AI SDK
Prerequisites
- Node.js 18+ and a TypeScript project
-
ai+@modelcontextprotocol/sdkpackages - Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token
- 1
Install dependencies
Run
npm install ai @modelcontextprotocol/sdkplus your preferred model provider (e.g.@ai-sdk/openai). - 2
Create the Streamable HTTP transport
Use
StreamableHTTPClientTransportwith 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 Nodereal tools. Pass them directly togenerateText()orstreamText()— 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.
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 Nodereal 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 NodeReal.
