Why people use PiLAB
PiLAB Infrastructure Management for Faster VM Control
This Connector changes that by pulling all those actions into your chat window. Instead of navigating menus, you just tell your agent to start a VM or check a cert's expiry. You get a unified view of your PiVirt, PiTrust, and 3SO data, letting you handle operations in seconds rather than minutes.
What Vinkius changes
You get a single conversational interface for your entire virtualization and security stack.
Use it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or another AI client you already have.

Before you connect
Questions about PiLAB.
The practical details behind the request, access and result.
How do I connect my PiLAB account?
After subscribing, the setup wizard will guide you through 3 simple steps: 1) Enter your PiLAB Instance Base URL. 2) Enter the Client ID and Client Secret from your PiLAB SSO (3SO) application. 3) Click the Connect with PiLAB button. a popup will open where you approve access via the Shadow SSO authorization flow. That's it! No manual token exchange or curl commands required.
Where do I find the Redirect URI for my PiLAB SSO application?
When registering your application in the PiLAB SSO admin console, set the Redirect URI to: https://api.vinkius.com/marketplace/oauth/callback. This is the platform's secure callback endpoint that completes the OAuth authorization automatically.
How do I get my Client ID and Client Secret?
Sign in to your PiLAB SSO admin console at https://sso.pilab.hu/primary/ and navigate to Client Management. Click New Application, give it a name, and set the Redirect URI to https://api.vinkius.com/marketplace/oauth/callback. Save the app and copy the Client ID and Client Secret (the secret is shown only once. copy it immediately).
Can my AI control virtual machines on PiVirt?
Yes! Use list_virtual_machines to see all VMs, get_vm_details to inspect a specific VM's resources, and control_vm with actions like start, stop, restart, pause, or resume. Your AI can manage the full VM lifecycle from the conversation.
How do I check if a TLS certificate is about to expire?
Use the list_certificates capability to see all certificates managed by PiTrust with their expiry dates and rotation status. For a specific certificate, use get_certificate_details with the certificate ID to see the full chain and rotation policy.
Do I need to refresh my tokens manually?
No. The platform automatically refreshes your access token in the background using the 3SO (Shadow SSO) refresh token flow. You only need to click Connect with PiLAB once during setup, and the integration will keep working indefinitely.
What PiLAB products are supported?
This Connector covers three PiLAB products: PiVirt (KVM virtualization. hosts, VMs, lifecycle control), PiTrust (ZeroTrust. certificates, access policies), and 3SO / Shadow SSO (OAuth 2.0. clients, token introspection, active sessions). The PiLAB platform also includes Hackergate (WAF), which is not yet exposed via this Connector.
