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 Moneybird MCP server, and what's possible with it? The Moneybird MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Moneybird account. It provides structured and secure access to your invoicing and accounting data, so your agent can perform actions like creating contacts, sending invoices, managing notes, and keeping your financial records up to date on your behalf. - Automated contact creation and management: Instantly add new clients or companies, update existing records, archive unused contacts, or remove outdated information—without manual entry. - Easy invoice generation: Direct your agent to create detailed sales invoices for any contact, including custom line items, for fast and accurate billing. - Contact note and to-do tracking: Record comments, assign to-dos, and manage notes on contacts, ensuring follow-ups and client history are always at your fingertips. - Contact filtering and segmentation: Effortlessly filter and retrieve contacts based on criteria like creation date or name, making it easy to target communications or review segments of your client base. - Comprehensive contact person management: Add or remove individual contact persons linked to organizations, keeping your records detailed and up to date for every client relationship. ## Supported Tools | Tool slug | Name | Description | |---|---|---| | `MONEYBIRD_ADD_NOTE_TO_CONTACT` | Add Note to Contact | Tool to add a note or to-do to a contact. use when you need to record a comment or assign a task to a contact. | | `MONEYBIRD_ARCHIVE_CONTACT` | Archive Contact | Tool to archive a contact. use when a contact is no longer needed and should be hidden permanently. | | `MONEYBIRD_CREATE_CONTACT` | Create Moneybird Contact | Tool to create a new contact in moneybird. use after you have an administration id and need to onboard a new company/person. provide either company name or both firstname and lastname. | | `MONEYBIRD_CREATE_CONTACT_PERSON` | Create Contact Person | Tool to create a new contact person. use when you have the contact id and need to add a person after confirming their firstname and lastname. | | `MONEYBIRD_CREATE_SALES_INVOICE` | Create Sales Invoice | Tool to create a new sales invoice. use when you need to bill a contact with specified line items. | | `MONEYBIRD_DELETE_CONTACT` | Delete Contact | Tool to delete a contact. use after confirming that contact should be removed. | | `MONEYBIRD_DELETE_CONTACT_NOTE` | Delete Contact Note | Tool to delete a note from a contact. use when a note is no longer needed and should be removed permanently. | | `MONEYBIRD_DELETE_CONTACT_PERSON` | Delete Contact Person | Tool to delete a contact person from a contact. use after confirming the administration id, contact id, and contact person id. | | `MONEYBIRD_FILTER_CONTACTS` | Filter Contacts | Tool to filter contacts. use when you need to retrieve contacts matching specific criteria like created after or first name. | | `MONEYBIRD_GET_ADDITIONAL_CHARGES` | Get Additional Charges | Tool to get additional charges for a contact. use when you need to view pending (or optionally billed) usage or recurring charges. | | `MONEYBIRD_GET_CONTACT` | Get Contact | Tool to retrieve all information about a specific contact by id. use when you need the full details of a contact, for example before generating invoices. | | `MONEYBIRD_GET_CONTACT_BY_CUSTOMER_ID` | Get Contact by Customer ID | Tool to retrieve full contact details by customer id. use when you need all fields of a contact given its customer id. | | `MONEYBIRD_GET_CONTACT_PERSON` | Get Contact Person | Tool to get all information about a contact person. use when you have the administration, contact, and contact person ids and need full details before updating. | | `MONEYBIRD_GET_SALES_INVOICE` | Get Sales Invoice | Tool to get a single sales invoice by id. use when you need detailed invoice data for a known invoice id. | | `MONEYBIRD_LIST_ADMINISTRATIONS` | List Administrations | Tool to list all administrations accessible by the authenticated user. use when you need to obtain administration id for subsequent operations like create contact. | | `MONEYBIRD_LIST_CONTACTS_SYNCHRONIZATION` | List Contacts Synchronization | Tool to list all contact ids and versions for synchronization. use when you need to detect which contacts have changed and update local data accordingly. | | `MONEYBIRD_LIST_SALES_INVOICES` | List Sales Invoices | Tool to list all sales invoices in an administration. use when you need an overview of invoices for a given administration. | | `MONEYBIRD_REQUEST_CONTACT_PAYMENTS_MANDATE_URL` | Request Payments Mandate URL | Tool to request a url for setting up a payments mandate. use when you need to generate a direct-debit authorization link for a contact (valid for 14 days). | | `MONEYBIRD_UPDATE_CONTACT` | Update Contact | Tool to update a contact. use when you need to modify existing contact details by id. only provided fields will be changed. | | `MONEYBIRD_UPDATE_CONTACT_PERSON` | Update Contact Person | Tool to update a contact person. use after selecting a specific contact person when you need to change their details. | | `MONEYBIRD_UPDATE_SALES_INVOICE` | Update Sales Invoice | Tool to update an existing sales invoice by id. use when modifying invoice header or line items. | ## Supported Triggers None listed. ## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK The Moneybird MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent to Moneybird. It provides structured and secure access so your agent can perform Moneybird 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 Moneybird 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 Moneybird-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: ["moneybird"], }); 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 Moneybird 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 moneybird, 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 Moneybird 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); }); ``` ## Complete Code ```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, }); async function main() { // Create a tool router session for the user const session = await composio.create(composioUserID!, { toolkits: ["moneybird"], }); const mcpUrl = session.mcp.url; 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(); let messages: ModelMessage[] = []; console.log("Chat started! Type 'exit' or 'quit' to end the conversation.\n"); console.log( "Ask any questions related to moneybird, like summarize my last 5 emails, send an email, etc... :)))\n", ); const rl = readline.createInterface({ input: process.stdin, output: process.stdout, prompt: "> ", }); rl.prompt(); 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); }); ``` ## Conclusion You've successfully built a Moneybird agent using the Vercel AI SDK with streaming capabilities! This implementation provides a powerful foundation for building AI applications with natural language interfaces and real-time feedback. Key features of this implementation: - Real-time streaming responses for a better user experience with typewriter effect - Live tool execution feedback showing which tools are being used as the agent works - Dynamic tool loading through Composio's Tool Router with secure authentication - Multi-step tool execution with configurable step limits (up to 10 steps) - Comprehensive error handling for robust agent execution - Conversation history maintenance for context-aware responses You can extend this further by adding custom error handling, implementing specific business logic, or integrating additional Composio toolkits to create multi-app workflows. ## How to build Moneybird MCP Agent with another framework - [OpenAI Agents SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/moneybird/framework/open-ai-agents-sdk) - [Claude Agent SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/moneybird/framework/claude-agents-sdk) - [Claude Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/moneybird/framework/claude-code) - [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/moneybird/framework/claude-cowork) - [Codex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/moneybird/framework/codex) - [OpenClaw](https://composio.dev/toolkits/moneybird/framework/openclaw) - [Hermes](https://composio.dev/toolkits/moneybird/framework/hermes-agent) - [CLI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/moneybird/framework/cli) - [Google ADK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/moneybird/framework/google-adk) - [LangChain](https://composio.dev/toolkits/moneybird/framework/langchain) - [Mastra AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/moneybird/framework/mastra-ai) - [LlamaIndex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/moneybird/framework/llama-index) - [CrewAI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/moneybird/framework/crew-ai) ## Related Toolkits - [Stripe](https://composio.dev/toolkits/stripe) - Stripe is a global online payments platform offering APIs for managing payments, customers, and subscriptions.

With a standalone Moneybird MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Moneybird tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Moneybird 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 Moneybird tools. ### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Moneybird while using Tool Router? Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Moneybird 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 Moneybird data and credentials are handled as safely as possible. --- [See all toolkits](https://composio.dev/toolkits) · [Composio docs](https://docs.composio.dev/llms.txt)
