Conditional episode publishing for Mastra AI agents

Use `publish_episode` within your Mastra workflow engine to trigger uploads based on your specific logic. You can add checkpoints before the agent fires the final command. If the first attempt hits a snag, the workflow engine handles the retry. It is built for production environments where you need to be certain the job finished.

Automated metadata cleanup with Podbean Podcast Hosting

Run `list_episodes` to find old content and `update_episode` to fix titles or descriptions in bulk. It is efficient for cleaning up a massive back-catalog. Mastra AI treats these as discrete steps in a larger operation. You can chain these together to maintain your library without manual input.

Safe content removal via Podbean Podcast Hosting

Integrate `delete_episode` into a human-in-the-loop workflow. Require approval before the agent actually removes any audio from your account. This prevents accidental deletions. The agent prepares the request, but you hold the keys to the final execution.

Setup guide

Set up Podbean Podcast Hosting MCP in Mastra AI

Prerequisites

Node.js 18+ and a TypeScript project
@mastra/mcp + @mastra/core packages
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install dependencies
Run npm install @mastra/mcp @mastra/core plus your preferred model provider (e.g. @ai-sdk/openai).
2

Configure the MCPClient
Create an MCPClient with your Vinkius endpoint as a URL object. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Discover and inject tools
Call mcpClient.listTools() and spread the result into your agent's tools object. All Podbean Podcast Hosting tools become native Mastra tools.
4

Run with any model
Swap openai("gpt-4o") for any AI SDK-compatible provider. Call agent.generate() and the agent routes tool calls through MCP automatically.

agent.ts

import { MCPClient } from "@mastra/mcp";
import { Agent } from "@mastra/core/agent";
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai";

const mcpClient = new MCPClient({
  id: "podbean-podcast-hosting-mcp-client",
  servers: {
    "podbean-podcast-hosting-mcp": {
      url: new URL(
        "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
      ),
    },
  },
});

const agent = new Agent({
  name: "Podbean Podcast Hosting Agent",
  model: openai("gpt-4o"),
  instructions: "You have access to Podbean Podcast Hosting tools.",
  tools: {
    ...(await mcpClient.listTools()),
  },
});

const result = await agent.generate(
  "List recent Podbean Podcast Hosting transactions"
);
console.log(result.text);
