How to Use the NVIDIA NIM MCP in Mastra AI
Build complex inference workflows with Mastra AI by automating GPU scaling and health checks via an MCP Server.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect NVIDIA NIM MCP to Mastra AI
Create your Vinkius account to connect NVIDIA NIM 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.
Automate health checks in workflows
Integrate `nim_check_health_live` into your Mastra agent logic to verify container responsiveness before proceeding with inference tasks. If the probe fails, your workflow can trigger a retry or alert an admin. This creates a self-healing loop for your infrastructure. You aren't just running agents; you're building systems that verify their own environment before executing code.
Orchestrate inference scaling
Use `nim_scale_replicas` as a step in your agent-driven workflows to adjust hardware usage based on demand. You can set conditional branches that scale down when usage drops to save costs. This gives your agents control over the physical backend. You define the logic, and the server executes the scaling commands immediately.
Get deep model metadata
Run `nim_get_metadata` to map your foundational configuration bounds into your workflow state. This allows your agents to make informed decisions about which models to use based on current loaded limits. Your code gets a clear view of exactly what the NVIDIA NIM server is running. It removes the guesswork from model selection and resource allocation.
Set up NVIDIA NIM MCP in Mastra AI
Prerequisites
- Node.js 18+ and a TypeScript project
-
@mastra/mcp+@mastra/corepackages - Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token
- 1
Install dependencies
Run
npm install @mastra/mcp @mastra/coreplus your preferred model provider (e.g.@ai-sdk/openai). - 2
Configure the MCPClient
Create an
MCPClientwith your Vinkius endpoint as aURLobject. Replace[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]with your token from cloud.vinkius.com. - 3
Discover and inject tools
Call
mcpClient.listTools()and spread the result into your agent'stoolsobject. All NVIDIA NIM tools become native Mastra tools. - 4
Run with any model
Swap
openai("gpt-4o")for any AI SDK-compatible provider. Callagent.generate()and the agent routes tool calls through MCP automatically.
import { MCPClient } from "@mastra/mcp";
import { Agent } from "@mastra/core/agent";
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai";
const mcpClient = new MCPClient({
id: "nvidia-nim-mcp-client",
servers: {
"nvidia-nim-mcp": {
url: new URL(
"https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
),
},
},
});
const agent = new Agent({
name: "NVIDIA NIM Agent",
model: openai("gpt-4o"),
instructions: "You have access to NVIDIA NIM tools.",
tools: {
...(await mcpClient.listTools()),
},
});
const result = await agent.generate(
"List recent NVIDIA NIM transactions"
);
console.log(result.text); Independent Platform Disclaimer: Vinkius is an independent platform and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, verified by, or otherwise authorized by NVIDIA NIM.
