Connect AgentDeals MCP tools to Vercel AI SDK via experimental_createMCPClient(). Build React/Next.js apps with pricing intelligence and vendor comparison.
The Vercel AI SDK is the leading JavaScript/TypeScript framework for building AI-powered applications, especially in the React and Next.js ecosystem. It supports MCP via experimental_createMCPClient(), allowing you to use AgentDeals tools in your AI applications.
AgentDeals provides 5 MCP tools with data on 1,547+ developer deals across 60 categories: search_deals, plan_stack, compare_vendors, track_changes, and get_referral_code.
npm install ai @ai-sdk/openai
import { experimental_createMCPClient as createMCPClient } from "ai";
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai";
import { generateText } from "ai";
const mcpClient = await createMCPClient({
transport: {
type: "sse",
url: "https://agentdeals.dev/mcp",
},
});
const tools = await mcpClient.tools();
const { text } = await generateText({
model: openai("gpt-4o"),
tools,
prompt: "Find free database hosting options and compare the top 3",
maxSteps: 5,
});
console.log(text);
await mcpClient.close();The Vercel AI SDK connects to AgentDeals via SSE (Server-Sent Events) transport. The experimental_createMCPClient handles the MCP handshake and tool discovery automatically.
Note: MCP support in the Vercel AI SDK is experimental. The API may change in future releases. Check the Vercel AI SDK docs for the latest usage.
Build a Next.js API route that uses AgentDeals tools to answer questions about developer tool pricing.
// app/api/pricing/route.ts
import { experimental_createMCPClient as createMCPClient } from "ai";
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai";
import { generateText } from "ai";
export async function POST(req: Request) {
const { question } = await req.json();
const mcpClient = await createMCPClient({
transport: { type: "sse", url: "https://agentdeals.dev/mcp" },
});
const tools = await mcpClient.tools();
const { text } = await generateText({
model: openai("gpt-4o"),
tools,
prompt: question,
maxSteps: 5,
});
await mcpClient.close();
return Response.json({ answer: text });
}Build a streaming chat interface that can compare vendors in real time using AgentDeals tools.
// app/api/chat/route.ts
import { experimental_createMCPClient as createMCPClient } from "ai";
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai";
import { streamText } from "ai";
export async function POST(req: Request) {
const { messages } = await req.json();
const mcpClient = await createMCPClient({
transport: { type: "sse", url: "https://agentdeals.dev/mcp" },
});
const tools = await mcpClient.tools();
const result = streamText({
model: openai("gpt-4o"),
tools,
messages,
maxSteps: 5,
onFinish: () => mcpClient.close(),
});
return result.toDataStreamResponse();
}Build a Node.js CLI tool that helps developers plan their infrastructure stack using AgentDeals data.
// plan-stack.ts
import { experimental_createMCPClient as createMCPClient } from "ai";
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai";
import { generateText } from "ai";
const stack = process.argv.slice(2).join(", ");
if (!stack) {
console.log("Usage: npx tsx plan-stack.ts vercel neon clerk");
process.exit(1);
}
const mcpClient = await createMCPClient({
transport: { type: "sse", url: "https://agentdeals.dev/mcp" },
});
const { text } = await generateText({
model: openai("gpt-4o"),
tools: await mcpClient.tools(),
prompt: `Audit this stack: ${stack}. For each vendor, show the
free tier limits, risk level, and estimated cost at 10K MAU.
Suggest free alternatives for any high-risk vendors.`,
maxSteps: 5,
});
console.log(text);
await mcpClient.close();AgentDeals exposes 5 MCP tools. Your Vercel AI SDK agent can call any of them:
search_dealsFind free tiers, browse categories, get vendor details with alternatives. Filter by category, eligibility, or keyword.
plan_stackGet stack recommendations, cost estimates, or a full infrastructure audit for your project.
compare_vendorsCompare 2 vendors side-by-side or check a single vendor's pricing risk.
track_changesTrack pricing changes, upcoming expirations, and new deals. Weekly digest with no params.
get_referral_codeLook up the referral link we hold for a vendor, with the conditions attached to it. We hold codes for a handful of vendors.
