## TL;DR

Here's what you'll learn:
- How to set up and configure a Vercel AI SDK agent with Context7 MCP integration
- Using Composio's Tool Router to dynamically load and access Context7 MCP tools
- Creating an MCP client connection using HTTP transport
- Building an interactive CLI chat interface with conversation history management
- Handling tool calls and results within the Vercel AI SDK framework

## What is Vercel AI SDK?

The Vercel AI SDK is a TypeScript library for building AI-powered applications. It provides tools for creating agents that can use external services and maintain conversation state.
Key features include:
- streamText: Core function for streaming responses with real-time tool support
- MCP Client: Built-in support for Model Context Protocol via @ai-sdk/mcp
- Step Counting: Control multi-step tool execution with stopWhen: stepCountIs()
- OpenAI Provider: Native integration with OpenAI models

## What is the Context7 MCP MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Context7 MCP MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Context7 MCP account. It provides structured and secure access so your agent can perform Context7 MCP operations on your behalf.

## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK

The Context7 MCP MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent to Context7 MCP. It provides structured and secure access so your agent can perform Context7 MCP operations on your behalf through a secure, permission-based interface.
With Composio's managed implementation, you don't have to create your own developer app. For production, if you're building an end product, we recommend using your own credentials. The managed server helps you prototype fast and go from 0-1 faster.

## Step-by-step Guide

### 1. Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure you have:
- Node.js and npm installed
- A Composio account with API key
- An OpenAI API key

### 1. Getting API Keys for OpenAI and Composio

OpenAI API Key
- Go to the [OpenAI dashboard](https://platform.openai.com/settings/organization/api-keys) and create an API key. You'll need credits to use the models, or you can connect to another model provider.
- Keep the API key safe.
Composio API Key
- Log in to the [Composio dashboard](https://dashboard.composio.dev?utm_source=toolkits&utm_medium=framework_docs).
- Navigate to your API settings and generate a new API key.
- Store this key securely as you'll need it for authentication.

### 2. Install required dependencies

First, install the necessary packages for your project.
What you're installing:
- @ai-sdk/openai: Vercel AI SDK's OpenAI provider
- @ai-sdk/mcp: MCP client for Vercel AI SDK
- @composio/core: Composio SDK for tool integration
- ai: Core Vercel AI SDK
- dotenv: Environment variable management
```bash
npm install @ai-sdk/openai @ai-sdk/mcp @composio/core ai dotenv
```

### 3. Set up environment variables

Create a .env file in your project root.
What's needed:
- OPENAI_API_KEY: Your OpenAI API key for GPT model access
- COMPOSIO_API_KEY: Your Composio API key for tool access
- COMPOSIO_USER_ID: A unique identifier for the user session
```bash
OPENAI_API_KEY=your_openai_api_key_here
COMPOSIO_API_KEY=your_composio_api_key_here
COMPOSIO_USER_ID=your_user_id_here
```

### 4. Import required modules and validate environment

What's happening:
- We're importing all necessary libraries including Vercel AI SDK's OpenAI provider and Composio
- The dotenv/config import automatically loads environment variables
- The MCP client import enables connection to Composio's tool server
```typescript
import "dotenv/config";
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai";
import { Composio } from "@composio/core";
import * as readline from "readline";
import { streamText, type ModelMessage, stepCountIs } from "ai";
import { createMCPClient } from "@ai-sdk/mcp";

const composioAPIKey = process.env.COMPOSIO_API_KEY;
const composioUserID = process.env.COMPOSIO_USER_ID;

if (!process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY) throw new Error("OPENAI_API_KEY is not set");
if (!composioAPIKey) throw new Error("COMPOSIO_API_KEY is not set");
if (!composioUserID) throw new Error("COMPOSIO_USER_ID is not set");

const composio = new Composio({
  apiKey: composioAPIKey,
});
```

### 5. Create Tool Router session and initialize MCP client

What's happening:
- We're creating a Tool Router session that gives your agent access to Context7 MCP tools
- The create method takes the user ID and specifies which toolkits should be available
- The returned mcp object contains the URL and authentication headers needed to connect to the MCP server
- This session provides access to all Context7 MCP-related tools through the MCP protocol
```typescript
async function main() {
  // Create a tool router session for the user
  const session = await composio.create(composioUserID!, {
    toolkits: ["context7_mcp"],
  });

  const mcpUrl = session.mcp.url;
```

### 6. Connect to MCP server and retrieve tools

What's happening:
- We're creating an MCP client that connects to our Composio Tool Router session via HTTP
- The mcp.url provides the endpoint, and mcp.headers contains authentication credentials
- The type: "http" is important - Composio requires HTTP transport
- tools() retrieves all available Context7 MCP tools that the agent can use
```typescript
const mcpClient = await createMCPClient({
  transport: {
    type: "http",
    url: mcpUrl,
    headers: session.mcp.headers, // Authentication headers for the Composio MCP server
  },
});

const tools = await mcpClient.tools();
```

### 7. Initialize conversation and CLI interface

What's happening:
- We initialize an empty messages array to maintain conversation history
- A readline interface is created to accept user input from the command line
- Instructions are displayed to guide the user on how to interact with the agent
```typescript
let messages: ModelMessage[] = [];

console.log("Chat started! Type 'exit' or 'quit' to end the conversation.\n");
console.log(
  "Ask any questions related to context7_mcp, like summarize my last 5 emails, send an email, etc... :)))\n",
);

const rl = readline.createInterface({
  input: process.stdin,
  output: process.stdout,
  prompt: "> ",
});

rl.prompt();
```

### 8. Handle user input and stream responses with real-time tool feedback

What's happening:
- We use streamText instead of generateText to stream responses in real-time
- toolChoice: "auto" allows the model to decide when to use Context7 MCP tools
- stopWhen: stepCountIs(10) allows up to 10 steps for complex multi-tool operations
- onStepFinish callback displays which tools are being used in real-time
- We iterate through the text stream to create a typewriter effect as the agent responds
- The complete response is added to conversation history to maintain context
- Errors are caught and displayed with helpful retry suggestions
```typescript
rl.on("line", async (userInput: string) => {
  const trimmedInput = userInput.trim();

  if (["exit", "quit", "bye"].includes(trimmedInput.toLowerCase())) {
    console.log("\nGoodbye!");
    rl.close();
    process.exit(0);
  }

  if (!trimmedInput) {
    rl.prompt();
    return;
  }

  messages.push({ role: "user", content: trimmedInput });
  console.log("\nAgent is thinking...\n");

  try {
    const stream = streamText({
      model: openai("gpt-5"),
      messages,
      tools,
      toolChoice: "auto",
      stopWhen: stepCountIs(10),
      onStepFinish: (step) => {
        for (const toolCall of step.toolCalls) {
          console.log(`[Using tool: ${toolCall.toolName}]`);
          }
          if (step.toolCalls.length > 0) {
            console.log(""); // Add space after tool calls
          }
        },
      });

      for await (const chunk of stream.textStream) {
        process.stdout.write(chunk);
      }

      console.log("\n\n---\n");

      // Get final result for message history
      const response = await stream.response;
      if (response?.messages?.length) {
        messages.push(...response.messages);
      }
    } catch (error) {
      console.error("\nAn error occurred while talking to the agent:");
      console.error(error);
      console.log(
        "\nYou can try again or restart the app if it keeps happening.\n",
      );
    } finally {
      rl.prompt();
    }
  });

  rl.on("close", async () => {
    await mcpClient.close();
    console.log("\n👋 Session ended.");
    process.exit(0);
  });
}

main().catch((err) => {
  console.error("Fatal error:", err);
  process.exit(1);
});
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Context7 MCP MCP?

With a standalone Context7 MCP MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Context7 MCP tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Context7 MCP and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

### Can I use Tool Router MCP with Vercel AI SDK v6?

Yes, you can. Vercel AI SDK v6 fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right Context7 MCP tools.

### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Context7 MCP while using Tool Router?

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Context7 MCP scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do.

### How safe is my data with Composio Tool Router?

All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your Context7 MCP data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
