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.

Curated set · 3 capabilities

We ship only the actions that matter.

Capability set01 / 01

01-03

3 capabilities in this set.

Part of 3 available through Breathing Timer.

  1. 01

    Query breathing parameters

    This capability pulls the standard timing settings for specific breathing techniques like Wim Hof or Coherence Heart Rate.

  2. 02

    Generate breathing schedule

    This capability creates a complete, structured countdown for a breathing session of any length you choose.

  3. 03

    Calculate single cycle duration

    Use this to find the exact length of one full breath cycle based on your specific inhale, hold, and exhale counts.

Real work

What teams actually run

01

Stress Management

Ask your agent to start a 4-7-8 breathing session when you feel overwhelmed.

02

Focus Resets

Use Box Breathing schedules to reset your attention between deep work blocks.

03

Custom Routine Building

Calculate the exact timing for a unique breathing pattern you developed.

04

Heart Rate Coherence

Follow standard parameters to practice rhythmic breathing for physiological balance.

Automate a task

Put Breathing Timer to work on one thing.

Step-by-step automations your AI runs through this Connector: the workflow, the prompts to start with, and the exact capabilities behind each move.

One connector, every AI

Breathing Timer 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 Breathing Timer 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.

Preview access · not provider authentication

The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of Breathing Timer, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Breathing Timer. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.

Who it's for

Built for the work Breathing Timer owners hand off.

This MCP is for anyone using an AI agent to facilitate physiological regulation and focus.

  • 01

    Wellness Practitioners

    They hand off the timing and scheduling of breathing exercises to their AI client.

  • 02

    Biofeedback Enthusiasts

    They use the agent to manage precise respiratory rhythms for heart rate coherence.

  • 03

    Productivity Focused Users

    They use the agent to trigger quick, structured breathing resets during work sessions.

FAQ

Questions Breathing Timer owners ask.

  • 01

    What breathing techniques are supported?

    The MCP supports techniques like Box Breathing, 4-7-8, Coherence Heart Rate, and Wim Hof.

  • 02

    Can I create my own breathing patterns?

    Yes, you can use the capability to calculate the duration of a custom cycle by providing your own inhale, hold, and exhale times.

  • 03

    How does the MCP handle long sessions?

    The generate_breathing_schedule capability creates a structured countdown for any total session length you specify.

  • 04

    Do I need to manually count my breaths?

    No, the agent uses the MCP to manage the timing so you can focus on the breath itself.

  • 05

    Which AI clients can use this MCP?

    You can use this MCP with any compatible client like Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, or VS Code.

  • 06

    How does the system ensure my timing is accurate for complex patterns like Wim Hof?

    The query_breathing_parameters capability serves as the single source of truth, providing standardized component timings. This data feeds into calculate_single_cycle_duration, which ensures every cycle adheres to scientific standards before scheduling begins.

  • 07

    What if I want a session longer than the default time limits?

    The generate_breathing_schedule capability accepts a custom totalDurationSeconds. It will proportionally scale and count down through all phases (INHALE, HOLD, EXHALE, REST) until the specified time is reached.

  • 08

    Can I customize the timings for a technique like Box Breathing?

    Yes. The calculate_single_cycle_duration capability allows you to override default parameters, letting you specify custom seconds for inhale, hold, exhale, and rest phases.
