How to Use the Zetachain Explorer (ZetaChain Block Explorer API) MCP in Vercel AI SDK

Q: How do I use Zetachain Explorer (ZetaChain Block Explorer API) with Vercel AI SDK to track token movements?

You call the gettokentransfers tool via your agent. Since you're using Vercel AI SDK, the data streams into your React component as soon as it's available. The user sees the transfer list appearing live.

Q: Can I build a dashboard that tracks an address's balance using Zetachain Explorer (ZetaChain Block Explorer API) and Vercel AI SDK?

Absolutely. Your agent uses getaddresstokenbalances to fetch the current balances. The streamable nature of your client means you can update a counter or display list on the screen without manual state management.

Q: What's the best way to analyze smart contracts using Zetachain Explorer (ZetaChain Block Explorer API) and Vercel AI SDK?

Use getsmartcontract when you need the contract details and ABI. The streaming capability helps if the ABI response is large, allowing you to display the technical specs chunk by chunk.

Live Transaction Monitoring

When a user needs to check transaction details, the `get_transaction` tool pulls the hash and core metadata. You stream this result directly into your Next.js component. This means users see the data populating in real-time—no loading spinner required. The AI client handles the call to `get_address_transactions`, and the results appear instantly, making it feel like a native UI element rather than an API fetch.

Real-Time Address Analysis

Building an address dashboard is simple. Your agent uses `get_address` to get basic details first. Then, calling `get_address_token_balances` streams the current token holdings immediately into your frontend state. This pattern lets you display multiple data points—like total tokens owned via `get_address_tokens`—as they arrive, giving users an immediate view of the asset's value.

Inspecting Block History

If you need to build a full block explorer, use the `list_blocks` tool. You can then iterate through blocks using `get_block`, and stream the details into your UI list component. For deeper dives, calling `get_block_transactions` streams every transaction found within that specific block hash, letting you render them as they are retrieved.

Setup guide

Set up Zetachain Explorer (ZetaChain Block Explorer API) 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 Zetachain Explorer (ZetaChain Block Explorer API) 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 Zetachain Explorer (ZetaChain Block Explorer API) transactions",
});

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