Frequently asked questions
Can I see all available AI avatars via AI?
Yes! Use the list_avatars tool. Your agent will retrieve the complete directory of stock avatars available in Synthesia for your videos.
How do I check the status of a video being processed?
Run the get_video_details query with your Video ID. The agent will retrieve the real-time status (e.g., in_progress, completed) and the final download link if ready.
Is it possible to generate a video using a custom template?
Absolutely. Use the create_video_from_template tool. Provide the Template ID and a JSON object with the data for your dynamic variables to trigger the generation.
How does the Vercel AI SDK connect to MCP servers?
Import createMCPClient from @ai-sdk/mcp and pass the server URL. The SDK discovers all tools and provides typed TypeScript interfaces for each one.
Can I use MCP tools in Edge Functions?
Yes. The AI SDK is fully edge-compatible. MCP connections work on Vercel Edge Functions, Cloudflare Workers, and similar runtimes.
Does it support streaming tool results?
Yes. The SDK provides streaming primitives like useChat and streamText that handle tool calls and display results progressively in the UI.
