Bring Smart Contracts
to Vercel AI SDK
Learn how to connect Tenderly (Ethereum Dev Platform) to Vercel AI SDK and start using 4 AI agent tools in minutes. Fully managed, enterprise secure, and ready to use without writing a single line of code.
Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
What is the Tenderly (Ethereum Dev Platform) MCP Server?
Connect your Tenderly account to any AI agent to streamline your Ethereum development workflow. This MCP server allows you to debug, simulate, and monitor smart contracts through natural language.
What you can do
- Transaction Simulation — Simulate single transactions or complex bundles on any supported network without committing real assets or spending gas.
- Virtual TestNets — Create and manage private mainnet replicas (Virtual TestNets) to test your dApps in a production-like environment with custom configurations.
- On-Chain Monitoring — Set up sophisticated alerts for method calls, state changes, or value transfers to stay informed about blockchain activity in real-time.
- Bundle Execution — Test sequences of transactions to see how they interact, perfect for debugging complex DeFi protocols or multi-step workflows.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Provide your Tenderly Access Key, Account Slug, and Project Slug
- Start simulating transactions and managing testnets from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client
Who is this for?
- Smart Contract Engineers — debug transactions and verify contract behavior before deployment.
- DeFi Researchers — simulate complex multi-step transactions to analyze protocol interactions.
- Web3 DevOps — monitor production contracts and manage private testing environments seamlessly.

Why teams choose Vinkius for Tenderly (Ethereum Dev Platform) in Vercel AI SDK
The Tenderly (Ethereum Dev Platform) MCP Server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS — a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts. All 4 tools execute in hardened sandboxes optimized for native MCP execution.
Your AI agents in Vercel AI SDK only access the data you authorize, with DLP that blocks sensitive information from ever reaching the model, kill switch for instant shutdown, and up to 60% token savings. Enterprise-grade infrastructure, zero maintenance.

* Every MCP server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS - a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts optimized for native MCP execution. See our infrastructure
How Vinkius secures
Tenderly (Ethereum Dev Platform) for Vercel AI SDK
Every tool call from Vercel AI SDK to the Tenderly (Ethereum Dev Platform) MCP Server is protected by DLP redaction, cryptographic audit chains, V8 sandbox isolation, kill switch, and financial circuit breakers.
Frequently asked questions
Can I simulate a transaction without spending real ETH or gas?
Yes! Use the simulate_transaction tool. It runs the transaction against the latest state of the network in a virtual environment, providing full trace and results without any on-chain cost.
How do I create a private fork of Ethereum for testing?
You can use the create_virtual_testnet tool. Provide a slug, display name, and the network ID you want to fork from (e.g., 1 for Mainnet) to spin up a private RPC endpoint.
Can I monitor specific smart contract events automatically?
Absolutely. Use the create_alert tool with an alert_config object to monitor method calls, state changes, or emitted logs on any contract address.
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.
createMCPClient is not a function
Install: npm install @ai-sdk/mcp
