How to Use the Volvo Cars Connected MCP in Vercel AI SDK

Q: What metrics can I retrieve for a vehicle with Volvo Cars Connected using Vercel AI SDK?

You can get specific stats like gettiresstatus, current fuel levels via getfuelstatus, and the odometer reading. The data arrives live as you stream it.

Q: Can I monitor multiple vehicles with Volvo Cars Connected using Vercel AI SDK?

Yes. You can first use listvehicles to get IDs, then call status tools on those individual IDs and display the results in separate streaming components.

Monitor Real-Time Status via MCP Server

When you call `get_battery_status` or `get_tires_status`, the data streams directly into your React component. Users see the status update in real time, without waiting for a loading spinner to resolve. You can build entire dashboard views that display metrics like `get_fuel_status` and `get_doors_status` as they change, making the user experience feel instantaneous.

View Vehicle Metadata in Streams

The `get_vehicle_details` tool lets you pull all necessary metadata for a car into your frontend stream. This is perfect for displaying VINs or model years right after the user selects a vehicle. Because it streams, if you call this multiple times, the new data overwrites old info instantly—no full page refresh needed to show updated `get_odometer` readings.

Handle Multiple Vehicle Lookups

Use `list_vehicles` first to populate a dropdown list of IDs for your users. Then, you can stream status checks for several cars by calling tools like `get_engine_status` sequentially. This flow lets the user see all active vehicles and their current operational states—like checking multiple car's `get_windows_status` at once.

Setup guide

Set up Volvo Cars Connected 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 Volvo Cars Connected 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 Volvo Cars Connected transactions",
});

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