How to Use the Vald MCP in Vercel AI SDK
See your AI work live in the UI with Vald and Vercel AI SDK.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Vald MCP to Vercel AI SDK
Create your Vinkius account to connect Vald 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 Vector Search for Your Client
Run a nearest neighbor vector similarity search using `search_vectors` to find relevant context. Because you're building user-facing products, the results from this MCP Server stream directly into your UI. You won't have that loading spinner delay; the data just appears live.
Managing Vector Data in Client Apps
Need to update what an agent knows? Use `update_vector` by providing the existing ID and the new vector array. This is critical when your AI client needs to incorporate fresh information based on user interaction. It keeps the context accurate, right in the frontend.
Inspecting Vector Health with the MCP Server
Check how Vald is running by calling `get_engine_info`. This tells you operational details and the overall health of the database engine. Similarly, if you need to inspect a specific data point, `get_vector_details` pulls the raw vector data for an ID.

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 Vald 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 Vald.
