Key Capabilities
Zero-latency UI updates with Vercel AI SDK
When your user types a query, your app shouldn't freeze. This integration lets your frontend stream live vector similarities straight from your database. By pulling points via the `search` tool, your UI updates instantly as the vectors resolve, skipping the typical loading states. This setup works directly within Next.js Edge Functions. Your AI client grabs raw payload details using `get_points` and feeds them to the stream, keeping the memory footprint low and the response times under 100ms.
Direct vector pagination on the edge
Handling massive datasets on the edge requires strict memory control. Your Vercel AI SDK agent uses this MCP Server to scroll through vector points without choking your serverless function. You get chunked data transfers that match your UI's scroll speed. If you need to verify collection sizes before rendering, the agent runs `count` to set up your pagination boundaries. This keeps your edge runtime lean and prevents cold starts from killing your user experience.
Instant collection verification
Before running complex semantic queries, your interface needs to know what it's querying. This MCP integration lets your agent call `list_collections` to verify active indexes before your user even hits the search button. No dead ends, no wasted API calls. Once verified, `get_collection` pulls the exact configuration parameters. This ensures your Vercel AI SDK application only targets active vector spaces, preventing runtime exceptions when users search empty datasets.

Prerequisites
- Node.js 18+ and a TypeScript project
-
ai+@modelcontextprotocol/sdkpackages - Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token
- 1
Install dependencies
Run
npm install ai @modelcontextprotocol/sdkplus your preferred model provider (e.g.@ai-sdk/openai). - 2

Use
StreamableHTTPClientTransportwith 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 Qdrant tools. Pass them directly togenerateText()orstreamText()— 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.
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 Qdrant transactions",
});
console.log(text);
await mcpClient.close();Independent Platform Disclaimer: Vinkius is an independent platform and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, verified by, or otherwise authorized by Qdrant.
