Helpscout MCP Integration for Vercel AI SDK
Connect Helpscout to Vercel AI SDK through the local KosmoKrator MCP gateway with scoped tools, credentials, and write policy.
Connect Helpscout to Vercel AI SDK
Use KosmoKrator as a local integration gateway for Vercel AI SDK agents and scripts.
Create an MCP client that starts or connects to the KosmoKrator gateway for the selected integration. The gateway is local, scoped to this integration, and starts with
--write=deny so Vercel AI SDK can inspect read-capable tools without receiving write access by default.
