How to Use the Wallabag (Pocket Alternative) MCP in Mastra AI

Q: How do I check for articles with Wallabag (Pocket Alternative) using Mastra AI?

You run listentries at the start of your workflow. This gives you a reliable list of all content, which can then feed into subsequent steps like checking tags or marking favorites.

Q: Can I automate tagging and organization with Wallabag (Pocket Alternative) using Mastra AI?

Yes. You build the workflow around addtagstoentry and removetagfromentry. If a tag operation fails, your agent can be set up to retry the task automatically.

Q: What is the best way to handle annotation history for Wallabag (Pocket Alternative) using Mastra AI?

The workflow uses createannotation and then calls listannotations. The built-in retries ensure that even if the initial write fails, your agent will eventually retrieve all necessary data.

Q: If I need to manage my read-it-later list with Wallabag (Pocket Alternative), how does Mastra AI help?

You can create a sequence: first getentry by ID, then use markentryfavorite. If the marking fails, the workflow can retry using an exponential backoff strategy until successful.

Perplexity

Add tags and manage article labels.

Start by calling `add_tags_to_entry` to attach specific labels to an entry. This is essential for any complex, multi-step workflow because it allows your agent to organize data reliably. You can follow up with `remove_tag_from_entry` within a single Mastra AI task sequence, ensuring that the system cleans up or reclassifies content automatically.

Save and retrieve saved URLs for processing.

Use the `create_entry` tool to save a URL into your workflow. The agent can then use this entry's ID with `get_entry` later in the process, guaranteeing the data is available even if earlier steps fail. This pattern makes it ideal for processes that need to handle retries or conditional branching based on stored content.

Log and retrieve user annotations reliably.

The `create_annotation` tool allows your Mastra AI workflow to log specific notes against an entry. You can then use `list_annotations` to gather all commentary, even if the initial attempt fails and requires a retry. This ensures that crucial context or user feedback isn't lost during automated processing.

Setup guide

Set up Wallabag (Pocket Alternative) MCP in Mastra AI

Prerequisites

Node.js 18+ and a TypeScript project
@mastra/mcp + @mastra/core packages
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install dependencies
Run npm install @mastra/mcp @mastra/core plus your preferred model provider (e.g. @ai-sdk/openai).
2

Configure the MCPClient
Create an MCPClient with your Vinkius endpoint as a URL object. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Discover and inject tools
Call mcpClient.listTools() and spread the result into your agent's tools object. All Wallabag (Pocket Alternative) tools become native Mastra tools.
4

Run with any model
Swap openai("gpt-4o") for any AI SDK-compatible provider. Call agent.generate() and the agent routes tool calls through MCP automatically.

agent.ts

import { MCPClient } from "@mastra/mcp";
import { Agent } from "@mastra/core/agent";
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai";

const mcpClient = new MCPClient({
  id: "wallabag-pocket-alternative-mcp-client",
  servers: {
    "wallabag-pocket-alternative-mcp": {
      url: new URL(
        "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
      ),
    },
  },
});

const agent = new Agent({
  name: "Wallabag (Pocket Alternative) Agent",
  model: openai("gpt-4o"),
  instructions: "You have access to Wallabag (Pocket Alternative) tools.",
  tools: {
    ...(await mcpClient.listTools()),
  },
});

const result = await agent.generate(
  "List recent Wallabag (Pocket Alternative) transactions"
);
console.log(result.text);
