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.

FAQ

Questions Board Repair Estimator owners ask.

  • 01

    How does the MCP determine if a repair is worth it?

    It uses the check_viability_threshold capability to compare the estimated repair cost against a specific cost-to-value ratio.

  • 02

    Does this MCP account for different locations?

    Yes, it uses the get_labor_rate capability to factor in local hourly labor rates for more accurate estimates.

  • 03

    Can I use this with Cursor or Windsurf?

    Yes, this MCP is compatible with any MCP-compatible client including Cursor, Windsurf, and VS Code.

  • 04

    What factors influence the repair complexity score?

    The complexity is determined by the physical characteristics of the damage, such as size and type, as well as the age of the board.

  • 05

    How is the repair cost calculated?

    The calculate_repair_estimate capability combines damage type, size, board age, and local labor rates to produce a total cost.

  • 06

    How accurate are the repair cost estimates?

    Estimates are generated using specialized models that factor in damage type, size, board age, and regional labor rates via get_labor_rate to provide a realistic financial outlook.

  • 07

    Can I use this to decide if a board is a total loss?

    Yes. By using check_viability_threshold, you can determine if the repair cost is economically sensible compared to the board's total value.

  • 08

    Does the capability account for DIY repairs?

    Yes, the calculate_repair_estimate capability includes an option to indicate if you are DIY capable, which significantly reduces the predicted labor costs.
