About IP Parking MCP Server
Connect IP Parking to any AI agent and streamline your Parking Access and Revenue Control System (PARCS) — manage occupancy, update tariffs, control gates, and audit transactions through natural conversation.
Windsurf's Cascade agent chains multiple IP Parking tool calls autonomously. query data, analyze results, and generate code in a single agentic session. Paste Vinkius Edge URL, reload, and all 10 tools are immediately available. Real-time tool feedback appears inline, so you see API responses directly in your editor.
What you can do
- Site Management — Monitor real-time occupancy and revenue across all locations
- Tariff Configuration — View and modify hourly rates and pricing rules instantly
- Gate Control — Remotely open/close barriers for assistance or maintenance
- Hardware Monitoring — Check health of ANPR cameras, ticket dispensers, and gates
- Transaction Auditing — Review exit logs and revenue collection
- ANPR Integration — Register or simulate license plate recognition events
The IP Parking MCP Server exposes 10 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Windsurf in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
