…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Upper Route Planner MCP to Vercel AI SDK
Create your Vinkius account to connect Upper Route Planner 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 Route Status Checks
You call `check_upper_status` to confirm the API is up and running. This lets you build client features that instantly validate service availability before showing any data. When a user requests route information, your agent can use `get_upper_route_stop` and stream those results directly into the React UI. The data appears live, skipping the usual loading spinner.
Scheduling New Delivery Tasks
`create_upper_delivery_task` lets your application programmatically add new jobs. This is perfect for forms where users submit a package drop-off location. Your agent can process the user input and immediately execute this tool call via `mcpClient`. The resulting task ID streams back, so the UI updates right as you hit send.
Retrieving Driver Lists
Use `list_upper_drivers` to pull a roster of available delivery personnel. This tool populates dropdown menus or initial status reports within your web application. Your client can fetch this list and then use the driver IDs in subsequent calls, like getting specific route details with `get_upper_stop_details`. Everything flows into the frontend without delay.
