Real-time Inventory Data for Vercel AI SDK
The `search_inventory` tool lets your agent look up specific items. When connected through the Vercel AI SDK, this data streams directly into the user interface as soon as it's found—no loading spinners needed. The developer can build out a live product where users see inventory changes populating the screen instantly. This real-time feed makes complex ERP lookups feel fast and native.
Manage Orders with Vercel AI SDK
Need to check an existing sales order? Call `get_order` to pull all details for a specific transaction. Because the results stream into the UI via the Vercel AI SDK, users get immediate feedback on the order's status. This capability is perfect for dashboards that need constant updates. It gives your frontend application the illusion of direct database access without blocking the user experience.
Track Supplies using Vercel AI SDK
Use `list_stock_lots` to get a full list of all recorded stock lots, which is critical for traceability. Passing this data through the Vercel AI SDK means the client sees each lot number appear live in their web app. This makes auditing simple and visual. Instead of waiting for a single API call to finish, your users watch the required inventory details assemble on screen.
