How to Use the Wakapi (WakaTime Alternative) MCP in Vercel AI SDK
Show real-time code metrics to users with Vercel AI SDK.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Wakapi (WakaTime Alternative) MCP to Vercel AI SDK
Create your Vinkius account to connect Wakapi (WakaTime Alternative) 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.
Fetch User Coding Stats via MCP Server
Need to know how much time a user spent on specific tasks? Call `get_stats` and your agent gets the raw coding metrics. This data lets you display usage stats live in the UI, not after some annoying loading spinner. When the results appear, they flow directly into React or Next.js components via streaming text. You build a product where the user sees the AI working instantly.
List Projects tracked by MCP Server
Before analyzing activity, you should know what projects exist. Use `list_projects` to pull all tracked project names and IDs. Your agent receives this list immediately so it can scope its analysis correctly. This is perfect for a dashboard where the user needs to select a context before asking questions. You pass the available options directly into your front-end state.
Send Heartbeats with Vercel AI SDK
Your agent tracks work by sending heartbeats. Calling `send_heartbeats` lets you send either a single object or an array of activity objects to Wakapi. This keeps the data pipeline open and ensures accurate tracking. This mechanism is crucial for continuous monitoring. The data it sends enables your AI client to keep track of time spent without manual intervention from the user.

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.
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 Wakapi (WakaTime Alternative) 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 Wakapi.
