How to Use the WhatsApp Business Alternative MCP in Mastra AI

Q: If I build a WhatsApp Business Alternative integration using Mastra AI, what are the data privacy implications?

When your workflow uses getbusinessprofile, it accesses operational business details. Since this is sensitive, you must ensure that all subsequent steps and retries adhere to strict access policies.

Q: Can I list numbers for a WhatsApp Business Alternative using Mastra AI?

Absolutely. You use listphonenumbers to pull the required phone number data into your workflow engine, allowing you to target specific accounts for messages.

Perplexity

Manage WhatsApp Templates

The `list_message_templates` tool lets your agent check every template available. This is crucial before building a message flow, ensuring you have the right option ready. Need to retire an old campaign? Use `delete_message_template`. Mastra AI handles this action gracefully, letting you retry or notify admin if the deletion fails.

Verify Account Credentials

To start a workflow, your agent first needs credentials. Call `get_waba_details` to pull all account configuration data. This is mandatory for any multi-step process. For basic checks, you can use `get_business_profile` to get the current public profile details.

Send Messages and Media via MCP Server

Sending a message requires specific steps. You initiate a template send with `send_template_message`. If the user is actively chatting, you use `send_text_message`. Furthermore, if your workflow needs to verify assets before sending, `get_media` gives you that information.

Setup guide

Set up WhatsApp Business 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 WhatsApp Business 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: "whatsapp-business-alternative-mcp-client",
  servers: {
    "whatsapp-business-alternative-mcp": {
      url: new URL(
        "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
      ),
    },
  },
});

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

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