Perplexity

Stream SMS alerts using the Vercel AI SDK

The `send_twilio_sms` tool sends a raw text message via Twilio. This lets your agent perform out-of-band alerting—like notifying a user immediately after completing a task. You’ll get those results streaming directly into the UI, so when the AI triggers an SMS send, the end user sees that action happen live, without waiting for a loading spinner.

MCP Server integration with Vercel AI SDK

Connecting this MCP Server is straightforward. Your agent can invoke `send_twilio_sms` using just two parameters: the destination phone number (`to`) and the message text (`body`). When your TypeScript SDK calls this tool, it handles the whole process of getting the SMS out to the target mobile number.

Building live UIs with Vercel AI SDK

This is great for building user-facing products. You can use the streaming nature of the SDK while simultaneously triggering an external action like sending a text alert. The agent doesn't just talk; it actually *does* stuff, and you show that activity in real time.

Setup guide

Set up Twilio SMS Sender 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 Twilio SMS Sender 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 Twilio SMS Sender transactions",
});

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