How to Use the ThePDFMaker MCP in Mastra AI

Q: What happens if I need to change an invoice template? Does this MCP Server support it?

Yes. You can manage templates using listpdftemplates. If a design changes entirely, you can run deletepdftemplate before uploading the new version to maintain clean records.

Q: What is the best way to keep track of PDF generation attempts with ThePDFMaker and Mastra AI?

Use listrecentpdfs. This function provides a historical record, letting you confirm which documents were generated, when they finished, and who requested them.

Build resilient, multi-step document workflows with Mastra AI's MCP Server integration.

Automated PDF Generation Pipelines

You build a workflow that handles failure points automatically. The system first calls `generate_pdf` to create the draft, then uses `get_pdf_status` to poll for the final link. This sequence ensures your complex invoices are only finalized when the process succeeds.

Template and Asset Management

Before generation, you need to verify inputs. Use `list_pdf_templates` to get all available templates, or run `get_template_details` if you need specific metadata on a single ID. You'll also use `list_asset_files` to check for required background images or logos.

Real-Time Status and Triggers

Don't wait for polling. Implement `create_webhook` to trigger actions immediately when a PDF is ready, saving calls to `get_pdf_status`. You can also check the overall health of the MCP Server using `get_api_status`.

Setup guide

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

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

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

Common questions about ThePDFMaker MCP in Mastra AI

Mastra AI handles the sequence. It first passes user data and a template ID to `generate_pdf`. The workflow then waits, polling via `get_pdf_status` until the resulting document link is available for use.

Yes. You can manage templates using `list_pdf_templates`. If a design changes entirely, you can run `delete_pdf_template` before uploading the new version to maintain clean records.

Absolutely. Your workflow should check resource limits first. Run `get_credit_balance` to confirm available API credits before attempting a high-volume batch run using the MCP Server.

Use `list_recent_pdfs`. This function provides a historical record, letting you confirm which documents were generated, when they finished, and who requested them.

This MCP Server primarily handles Template IDs and User Profile information. It manages metadata about documents but doesn't store the actual content of the user-provided data.
