How to Use the Prowlarr (Indexers) MCP in Mastra AI

Q: Does this work with my existing indexers?

It manages your current setup. You can use getindexer to audit your existing records and make adjustments as needed.

Q: How do I handle tool approval?

Enable requireToolApproval in your Mastra agent config. This forces a human check before the agent executes destructive actions like deleteindexer.

Conditional indexer management in Mastra AI

Create workflows that use `get_indexer_status` as a conditional branch. If an indexer fails, the agent can automatically execute `update_indexer` to disable it. This keeps your indexer list healthy without manual intervention. It prevents your search queries from hitting dead endpoints.

Automated error recovery sequences

Use `test_indexer` within your Mastra agents to verify connectivity after a configuration change. If the test fails, your workflow can revert the changes or notify your admin team. This ensures your Prowlarr instance stays operational during network shifts. It handles the heavy lifting of service validation.

Batch indexer operations

Run `list_indexers` to get your active tracker inventory and process them in a loop. You can evaluate each one for health and remove dead ones using `delete_indexer`. This is ideal for scheduled maintenance tasks. It keeps your indexer count lean and efficient.

Setup guide

Set up Prowlarr (Indexers) 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 Prowlarr (Indexers) 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: "prowlarr-indexers-mcp-client",
  servers: {
    "prowlarr-indexers-mcp": {
      url: new URL(
        "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
      ),
    },
  },
});

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

const result = await agent.generate(
  "List recent Prowlarr (Indexers) transactions"
);
console.log(result.text);
