What is the Luhn CC Validator MCP Server?
LLMs cannot perform complex algorithmic validation like the Luhn check. This results in agents trying to process fake or mistyped credit card numbers, burning API limits and triggering anti-fraud systems. This MCP adds pure, zero-latency validation to the edge.
The Superpowers
- Pre-Flight Validation: Instantly block mathematically invalid credit card numbers before making costly Stripe/Adyen API calls.
- Brand Detection: Accurately identifies Visa, Mastercard, AMEX, and Discover purely based on mathematical prefixes.
Built-in capabilities (1)
Pass the card number string and receive validation status plus card brand detection (Visa, Mastercard, Amex). Validates credit card numbers using the mathematical Luhn algorithm and detects the card brand

Frequently asked questions
Does it process payments?
No, it purely validates the mathematical checksum of the number. It does not contact any bank.
Is it secure?
Yes, 100% local evaluation inside the edge worker memory. No network requests are made.
What brands are supported?
Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover are instantly identified.
How does Claude Desktop discover MCP tools?
When Claude Desktop starts, it reads the claude_desktop_config.json file and connects to each configured MCP server. It calls the tools/list endpoint to fetch the schema for every available tool, then surfaces them as clickable options in the chat interface via the 🔌 icon.
What happens if the MCP server is temporarily unavailable?
Claude Desktop handles disconnections gracefully. if the server is unreachable at startup, the tools simply won't appear. Once the server becomes available again, restarting Claude Desktop will re-establish the connection. There is no timeout penalty or error loop.
Can I connect multiple MCP servers simultaneously?
Yes. You can add as many servers as you need in the mcpServers section of the config file. Each server appears as a separate tool provider, and Claude can use tools from multiple servers in a single conversation turn.
Is there a limit on the number of tools per server?
Claude Desktop can handle hundreds of tools per server. However, for optimal LLM performance, Vinkius servers are designed to expose focused, well-documented tool sets rather than overwhelming the model with too many options.
Does Claude Desktop support Streamable HTTP transport?
Yes. Claude Desktop supports both SSE (Server-Sent Events) and the newer Streamable HTTP transport that Vinkius uses. Simply provide the server URL. Claude auto-negotiates the transport protocol.
Server not appearing after restart
Ensure the JSON is valid (no trailing commas). Check the file path: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\\Claude\\ (Windows).
Authentication error
Verify your Vinkius token is correct. Go to cloud.vinkius.com to regenerate it if needed.
Tools not showing in chat
Click the 🔌 icon at the bottom of the chat input. If it shows 0 tools, the server may still be connecting. wait a few seconds.
