Live Status Checks for Walmart Marketplace

The `wm_get_item_status` tool analyzes the lifecycle of specific SKUs, telling you if they hit buy-box limits or show errors. You'll get real-time feedback on proxy validations so your user sees exactly what's happening without waiting for a full page refresh. This is perfect for building product pages where users need immediate confirmation. The data from the MCP Server streams right into the UI, letting you build tools that feel instant.

Manage Inventory Stock Levels with Vercel AI SDK

Use `wm_update_inventory` to allocate physical stock and resolve unit values directly. The tool evaluates proxy limits for native inventory updates, which is critical when users need live visibility into supply chain status. The results stream instantly through your Next.js frontend. Your agent doesn't wait; the user sees the stock change appear as soon as it hits the endpoint.

Process Bulk Price Updates using Vercel AI SDK

`wm_bulk_price_update` lets you safely upload bulk payload tracking parameters matrices. This tool handles structural feed arrays, giving your user a clear confirmation of which prices were updated across the Walmart Marketplace. Since this data streams to the UI, your app can show success counts and failure details instantly, rather than relying on a generic 'Operation Complete' message.

Setup guide

Set up Walmart Marketplace 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 Walmart Marketplace 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 Walmart Marketplace transactions",
});

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