01-04
4 capabilities in this set.
Part of 4 available through Bit Selection Optimization.
- 01
Select optimal bit
This capability recommends the best bit type and IADC category based on your specific geological and drilling objectives.
- 02
Calculate cost analysis
Use this to find the financial efficiency of a drilling run by calculating the Cost-per-Foot metric.
- 03
Compare bit options
This capability performs a side-by-side comparison of two different bit configurations to see which performs better.
- 04
Estimate performance metrics
This capability predicts expected drilling speed and bit wear characteristics for a chosen bit.
One connector, every AI
Bit Selection Optimization 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.

Le ChatBuilding your own app? The connector is yours to use.
You don't need a client to put Bit Selection Optimization 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.
Connect your client
One URL. Every client.
Activate the Connector, copy your link, and paste it into the client you already use. 4 capabilities arrive ready to run.
Preview access · not provider authentication
The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of Bit Selection Optimization, so you can see the experience inside your AI.
It does not authenticate your account with Bit Selection Optimization. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.

FAQ
Questions Bit Selection Optimization owners ask.
- 01
What AI clients can I use with this MCP?
You can use this MCP with any compatible client, including Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, and VS Code.
- 02
Do I need to host the MCP myself?
No, Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP for you. You just connect your client and it is ready to use.
- 03
Can this MCP help with cost-per-foot calculations?
Yes, the calculate_cost_analysis capability specifically determines financial efficiency using the Cost-per-Foot metric.
- 04
How does it recommend a bit?
The select_optimal_bit capability uses your inputs regarding formation type, strength, and abrasiveness to suggest the best IADC category.
- 05
Can I compare two different bits?
Yes, the compare_bit_options capability allows you to perform a side-by-side comparison of two bit configurations.
