Real-time cost streaming with AI SDK

Stop waiting for the UI to catch up. This MCP streams tool results so your users see the math as it finishes. `calculate_trip_cost` updates your frontend components instantly. It makes the AI feel fast and responsive.

Live efficiency comparisons

Show your users the best fuel choice while they watch. The AI SDK handles the tool stream and renders the output immediately. `compare_fuel_efficiency` highlights the price difference in your UI. It turns boring data into a clear visual choice.

Instant trip summaries

Display the final verdict without a loading spinner. Your AI SDK app displays the summary the moment the tool returns. `get_trip_summary` delivers the final numbers to your React or Vue components. It keeps the user interface snappy and clean.

Setup guide

Set up Fuel Cost Calculator 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 Fuel Cost Calculator 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 Fuel Cost Calculator transactions",
});

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