Manage Complex Payment Flows

Write a script that validates sales by first checking the order details using `get_order_details`. After verification, you can then call `get_payment_details` to ensure the payment matched the sale amount. If those checks pass, your workflow can confidently proceed with creating a new transaction via `create_payment`, handling retries if necessary.

Inventory Check and Reporting

Build a nightly check to ensure you don't run out of stock. The `get_stock_count` tool retrieves the current count for any item ID. You can also use this server to pull all available items using `list_catalog` into your report, making sure the inventory data is accurate before deployment.

Consolidating Store Data

The `list_store_locations` tool lets you gather all site IDs in a single run. You can then feed these location IDs into `search_orders` to compile one master list of all recent transactions across your entire business. This helps Ops teams build full audit trails that cross multiple physical sites.

Setup guide

Set up Square 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 Square 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: "square-alternative-mcp-client",
  servers: {
    "square-alternative-mcp": {
      url: new URL(
        "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
      ),
    },
  },
});

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

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