How to Use the Vercel MCP in Vercel AI SDK
Control your full Vercel deployment stack from your Next.js frontend using the Vercel AI SDK.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Vercel MCP to Vercel AI SDK
Create your Vinkius account to connect Vercel 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.
Getting Project Details with MCP Server
The `get_project_details` tool fetches all configuration data for a specific project. This lets your AI client read the setup, including associated frameworks and aliases. You get the necessary context to display full deployment information in real time on the UI.
Triggering Builds with Vercel AI SDK
When you call `trigger_github_deployment`, your agent initiates a new build for the project using a specific Git reference. This is perfect for user-initiated actions. The client can immediately stream the status of that build, showing the end user exactly what's happening.
Listing Project Status
The `list_deployments` tool pulls a list of recent CI/CD builds for any given project. Your agent can iterate through these build records to determine the last successful deployment time, letting your frontend display live status updates.
