Does this work across my workspaces?

Yes. Choose the User scope when adding the server and it's available in every workspace; Workspace scope keeps it in the current project only.

If I connect Black Duck (Synopsys) to Gemini, can I use the same connection in Claude or ChatGPT later?

Yes, and that's the point: the connection is yours, not Gemini's. You paste the same link in any AI you use, and there's nothing new to set up or pay again. Connect a new AI and Black Duck (Synopsys) is already there.

What does ZCode need to connect to Black Duck (Synopsys)?

Just the link. The hosted Connector handles access on our side, so you don't configure headers or tokens in ZCode. For remote services, the type is HTTP and the URL is your link.

What can I actually ask Gemini to do with Black Duck (Synopsys)?

Whatever the Connector covers: check data, run actions and bring answers back. The Connector page lists every capability your AI gains, with real examples you can copy.

Gemini doesn't show the Connector. What do I check?

Open Settings, MCP Servers and check the server is enabled, confirm the URL was pasted exactly as copied, and confirm the Connector is active in your Vinkius account. A deactivated Connector stops responding.

Can I remove the access later?

Remove the server in Settings, MCP Servers and it's out of your work. Your Vinkius account keeps the connection and its history either way, ready for the next AI.

Mission Control

See everything your Z.ai agents do in Black Duck (Synopsys).

When Z.ai runs a tool in Black Duck (Synopsys), it happens on Z.ai's side: you see the result, but not the request itself, what data it carried, or whether a rule was broken.

Now every move lands on your screen.

Every execution is recorded, enforced, and shown to you: what ran, what it returned, what was blocked, and why.

Request Volume & Latency

Every request your Z.ai agents make through Black Duck (Synopsys) is logged, enforced and auditable. See how AI Governance turns agent activity into accountability, and what it means for your Black Duck (Synopsys) workflows.

What sets us apart

It's not just the Connector that stays safe. Everything your agents do through it is.

Connecting Black Duck (Synopsys) to your AI is step one. But an open line between your agents and Black Duck (Synopsys) is only half the story: without protection, every action they take runs unguarded.

That's why protection doesn't stop at the door.

Every action your agents take through the Connector runs inside our infrastructure: signed activity logs, automatic key rotation, spending limits that pause instead of surprise, and a sandbox that isolates every execution.

Tamper Proof Activity Log

Every request your agents make in Black Duck (Synopsys) is recorded and signed, so any change to the history becomes detectable.

Automatic Key Rotation

We rotate security keys every 24 hours. Your Black Duck (Synopsys) connection stays protected without any manual work.

Spending Protection

We enforce the spending limit you choose and pause actions that exceed it until approval is received. Your Black Duck (Synopsys) actions never surprise you.

Isolated Sandbox

Every execution through Black Duck (Synopsys) runs isolated, with 34+ security rules covering memory, CPU, network access, file handling and execution.

Security Event Streaming

Security events flow to Splunk, Datadog or your own webhook, so Black Duck (Synopsys) activity lands in the tools you already rely on.

Instant Resume

Idle connections resume in 3 to 5 ms while preserving their state, keeping your Z.ai sessions responsive.

Malicious File Protection

We detect compressed files designed to exhaust system resources and block them before they ever reach Black Duck (Synopsys).

Credential Validation

We test your Black Duck (Synopsys) credentials before saving them. Invalid credentials are rejected instead of being stored.

Separate Usage Limits

Usage stays isolated per account, so activity in one connection never consumes another account's allowance.

One Connector, one link, and the whole operation is protected. Not just the connection: everything your agents do through it.

These guarantees are not add-ons: they are the infrastructure every Black Duck (Synopsys) connection runs on. Read how our infrastructure protects everything your Z.ai agents do, end to end.
