…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Workast MCP to Vercel AI SDK
Create your Vinkius account to connect Workast 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.
Live Project State with Vercel AI SDK
When a user needs to see project status, you call `list_spaces` and stream the results directly into the React component. The data populates in real-time, so users don't wait for a spinner to vanish. This live feed is perfect for dashboards. You can show all available Workast spaces using `get_space`, providing immediate feedback as your agent fetches details.
Real-Time Team Data with Vercel AI SDK MCP Server
Need to display who's on the team? Call `list_users` and stream those results. Since you’re building a frontend product, seeing the user list appear as data streams in is key. It works for more than just users; checking out roles or getting specific details via `get_team_info` feels instant when streamed directly to your UI.
Managing Tasks on the Fly with Vercel AI SDK
A user clicks 'view task.' You call `get_task` and stream those details instantly. This method makes the whole experience feel faster than a traditional API fetch. You can also check all tasks in one spot by calling `list_tasks`, making sure your users see exactly what's going on without lag.
