Real-time Video Metadata Retrieval for ai-sdk

The `get_video` tool lets you pull metadata for a specific asset. When paired with your agent, this data streams directly into the UI as soon as it's ready, skipping any loading spinners. It also handles basic user info via `get_user`. This means if your front end needs to display who owns the content before showing video details, you get both pieces of information instantly.

Managing Video Uploads with MCP Server and ai-sdk

Use `create_video_upload` when you need a user to submit new content. The agent sends the ticket data to the server, and your client receives confirmation immediately through the stream. Need to clean up old assets? Call `delete_video`. This quick operation ensures that once the delete request is processed by the MCP Server, the UI updates without delay.

Listing User Content for ai-sdk

You can get a list of all videos belonging to the authenticated user using `list_my_videos`. This tool populates your dashboard with current content at runtime. For more detail, `list_user_albums` gives you access to showcases. The data streams in so that even large sets of albums populate the UI without performance hits.

Setup guide

Set up Vimeo Alternative 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 Vimeo Alternative 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 Vimeo Alternative transactions",
});

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