Does this MCP only calculate the optimal position?

No. While it can find the optimal slot, it also provides a full snapshot of the ride, including time in the tube, exit angles, and survival probability.

What kind of data do I need to provide?

You must provide specific metrics like the wave's face angle, the barrel diameter, the surfer's speed, and the wave's speed for the most accurate results.

Can I use this for general wave dynamics?

The capability is specifically designed for barrel riding physics. It calculates dynamics within a confined wave structure, not general open-ocean wave modeling.

Is the survival probability accurate?

The probability is based on deterministic physics calculations using the provided wave and speed metrics, giving you a quantifiable risk assessment.

How do I know if I will be crushed by the wave?

You can use the check_safety_thresholds capability to compare your speed against the wave speed. If your speed is less than 80% of the wave speed, the capability will return a 'Low (getting crushed)' status.

What is the 'slot' in a barrel?

The 'slot' is the optimal longitudinal position within the barrel. You can find this specific meter mark using the get_positioning_guidance capability.

Can I get a full physics report for a specific wave?

Yes, the calculate_barrel_dynamics capability provides a comprehensive report including optimal positioning, time in barrel, spray deflection angle, survival probability, and exit trajectory.

Works with modern AI clients that support MCP, including ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and more.

Your AI does the work. We keep it safe and sound.

No other AI tool gives you this. Your workflow runs in the client you already love, your account stays protected, and you decide what the agent can and cannot do. It is the whole reason to make the switch.

Each Connector lives inside our infrastructure, the same place where your workflow runs. The three things below are already part of it, working quietly in the background so you never have to think about them. Nothing to add, nothing to set up, nothing to worry about.

V8 Isolate01

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed environment.

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed V8 runtime — no access to your files, your system, or other servers. A Connector never sees past its own request.

Kill Switch02

One switch stops every agent. Instantly.

One action deactivates every Connector, revokes every token, and ends every session at once. AI Governance keeps the record.

FinOps per User03

Spending limits that pause instead of surprise.

Every user keeps their own connections and credentials, isolated from everyone else. Anything that would cross your spending limit is held for your approval, not billed.

Three controls, built into the layer your AI connects through.

Determines if a specific surfer speed is sufficient to avoid being crushed by the wave

Real work

What teams actually run

Analyzing a difficult ride

A coach inputs the wave parameters and a student's speed to see if the student was at risk of being crushed.

Designing a simulation level

A developer uses the MCP to ensure that the physics of the barrel are consistent and challenging for the player.

Optimizing approach angle

A user determines the best target position within a barrel by running the positioning guidance capability.

Comparing different speeds

A student compares two different speeds to see which one yields a higher survival probability in the same wave.

One connector, every AI

Barrel Ride Physics works with the most popular AI clients.

These are the most popular clients, each with a step-by-step guide: one link, set up once, with governance and visibility built in. And because everything runs on the MCP standard, the same connection also works in any other compatible client — nothing to rebuild.

Building your own app? The connector is yours to use.

You don't need a client to put Barrel Ride Physics to work: the same hosted connection plugs into your own applications and agent code, with the same governance on every request. Build with it, chat with it — one connection for both.
