Why Claude Code?
Claude Code registers Mapflow as an MCP server in a single terminal command. Once connected, Claude Code discovers all 7 tools at runtime and can call them headlessly. ideal for CI/CD pipelines, cron jobs, and automated workflows where Mapflow data drives decisions without human intervention.
- —
Single-command setup:
claude mcp addregisters the server instantly. no config files to edit or applications to restart - —
Terminal-native workflow means MCP tools integrate seamlessly into shell scripts, CI/CD pipelines, and automated DevOps tasks
- —
Claude Code runs headlessly, enabling unattended batch processing using Mapflow tools in cron jobs or deployment scripts
- —
Built by the same team that created the MCP protocol, ensuring first-class compatibility and the fastest adoption of new protocol features

Why teams choose Vinkius for Mapflow in Claude Code
The Mapflow MCP Server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS — a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts. All 7 tools execute in hardened sandboxes optimized for native MCP execution.
Your AI agents in Claude Code only access the data you authorize, with DLP that blocks sensitive information from ever reaching the model, kill switch for instant shutdown, and up to 60% token savings. Enterprise-grade infrastructure, zero maintenance.

How Vinkius secures
Mapflow for Claude Code
Every tool call from Claude Code to the Mapflow MCP Server is protected by DLP redaction, cryptographic audit chains, V8 sandbox isolation, kill switch, and financial circuit breakers.
Frequently asked questions
Can I process satellite imagery and extract vector data?
Yes. Trigger AI models on imagery to automatically extract buildings, roads, forests, and other features as vector polygons.
How does Mapflow authentication work?
Mapflow uses Bearer authentication against api.mapflow.ai/rest using your API Key.
Can I track processing tasks?
Yes. Monitor processing status, progress percentages, and access completion datasets when ready.
How do I add an MCP server to Claude Code?
Run claude mcp add --transport http "" in your terminal. Claude Code registers the server and discovers all tools immediately.
Can Claude Code run MCP tools in headless mode?
Yes. Claude Code supports non-interactive execution, making it ideal for scripts, cron jobs, and CI/CD pipelines that need MCP tool access.
How do I list all connected MCP servers?
Run claude mcp in your terminal to see all registered servers and their status, or type /mcp inside an active Claude Code session.
