How to Use the UpGuard MCP in Mastra AI
Build complex, self-correcting security workflows with Mastra AI and UpGuard's MCP Server.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect UpGuard MCP to Mastra AI
Create your Vinkius account to connect UpGuard 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.
Automating Vendor Risk Checks
If your workflow needs to check vendor risk, call `list_vendor_risks` within the Mastra AI client. The agent can then use conditional branching: if risks are found, it triggers a notification step; otherwise, it continues the main process.
Sequential Asset Monitoring
You can chain together multiple checks. For instance, first run `list_monitored_ips`, then pass those IPs to check for active risks using `list_account_risks`. The Mastra AI client handles the retries if one of these steps fails, ensuring your complex workflow completes gracefully.
Handling Identity Breach Escalation
The workflow can monitor for identity breaches using `list_identity_breaches`. If a breach is detected, the Mastra AI agent doesn't just stop; it executes an escalation path—say, retrying the check after 30 seconds with different parameters.
