How Vinkius protects your data

Is there a risk of the AI "going crazy" and deleting important company data?

No. With Vinkius, the AI operates on "rails". It can only make the exact moves you authorized in the tool's settings. It cannot invent routes, access other networks in your company, or decide to delete random files. If the action isn't in the approved catalog, the attempt is blocked instantly.

Is it possible to trigger a physical button or restart a device?

Yes. If you have a button entity configured in ESPHome (like a restart button), you can use the button_press tool with the entity name to trigger that action remotely.

How does the AI access my passwords and credentials?

It simply doesn't. On Vinkius, your passwords, API keys, and login details are kept in a secure vault. The AI (like ChatGPT or Claude) merely "asks" Vinkius to perform the task. Vinkius opens the door, does the work, and hands the result back to the AI. Your credentials are never seen, read, or learned by the artificial intelligence.

Does the AI train on my tools or API data?

No. Vinkius enforces a strict Zero-Retention policy. Your data simply passes through our secure servers to complete the requested action and is instantly forgotten. Nothing you do here is ever stored, logged, or used to train any artificial intelligence.
