Key Capabilities
Stream Live Dashboard Updates with Vercel AI SDK
Your AI client uses `push_numeric_metric` and `push_bar_chart` to feed live marketing data directly into your frontend components. By invoking these tools, the agent updates active client dashboards instantly, letting you render real-time marketing metrics inside your React app. You don't need complex state management or constant polling setups. This MCP Server handles the connection directly, streaming updates straight to the UI so clients watch their Google and Facebook ad spend update live on the screen.
Instant Agency Client Selection
When building custom portals with the Vercel AI SDK, your agent uses `list_agency_clients` to pull the exact account details, mapping the correct marketing profiles to your Next.js session variables. This removes manual dropdown selection entirely from your client onboarding screens. Once the active client is identified, the agent calls `list_active_dashboards` to feed the exact reporting layout into your UI. It skips the loading spinners and delivers the raw data payload directly to your streaming edge functions.
Real-time Table Generation
Your agent uses `push_data_table` to populate UI matrices instantly with complex multi-source marketing data. This allows your Next.js app to display raw data points without requiring manual exports from ad networks. Pairing this setup with `push_variation_metric` lets users see exact percentage changes side-by-side with their live data tables. It turns raw HubSpot or Facebook metrics into clean, interactive UI elements on the fly.
