Check Communications Status

The `check_zipper_status` tool verifies the API connectivity to ZipperHQ. Your client instantly knows if the service is up or down, so you can display clear status messages in your UI. This real-time check prevents errors from showing up on the user's end. You build a better experience when the data source connection fails gracefully.

Manage Contact Data

You can pull all contacts using `list_contacts` and then get details for specific individuals with `get_contact_views`. This lets you show users who they've messaged, right in the web app. Furthermore, running `list_recordings` gives your application access to every screen recording associated with the account. You pass this data directly into your React component.

Search and Analyze Videos

Need a specific video? Use `search_videos` to filter content by keyword, or get deep insights using `get_video_analytics`. The analytics tool provides metrics like views and engagement rates for any given video. You can also fetch the top 10 videos via `get_recent_videos`, which populates a dynamic feed on your product page. It's all streamed to the user interface.

Setup guide

Set up zipperHQ 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 zipperHQ 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 zipperHQ transactions",
});

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