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.

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.
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.
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 · 4 capabilities
We ship only the actions that matter.
01-04
4 capabilities in this set.
Part of 4 available through Circle of Fifths Navigator.
- 01
Get key neighbors
This capability identifies the closest musical relatives to a specific key. It returns the dominant, subdominant, relative major, and relative minor keys.
- 02
Calculate modulation paths
This capability finds natural ways to change keys during a composition. It calculates modulation paths based on their distance on the circle.
- 03
Get enharmonic mapping
This capability finds equivalent keys that use different notation. It helps you identify keys that sound the same but are written differently.
- 04
Get key signature details
This capability provides the technical breakdown of a key. It lists the accidental order and the available modes for that specific scale.
Real work
What teams actually run
Smooth Key Transitions
Use the modulation capability to find a key that feels natural to move to after a specific section.
Scale Exploration
Ask your agent for the modes available in a key to expand your melodic palette.
Transposition Support
Use enharmonic mapping to find the right notation for a specific musical context.
Theory Verification
Quickly check the dominant or subdominant of a key to ensure harmonic correctness.
One connector, every AI

They hand off the math of modulation and key signatures to the AI to focus on melody.
- 02
Music Theorists
They use the capability to quickly verify tonal relationships and scale components.
- 03
Arrangers
They use it to find appropriate key changes and relative scales for different sections.
FAQ
Questions Circle of Fifths Navigator 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 start using the capabilities.
- 03
Can this help me with complex modulations?
Yes, the calculate_modulation_paths capability identifies natural paths based on the distance between keys on the circle.
- 04
Does it provide information on musical modes?
Yes, the get_key_signature_details capability provides the available modes for a given key.
- 05
How does it handle different notations for the same key?
The get_enharmonic_mapping capability finds equivalent keys that use different notation.
- 06
How can I find the closest musical relatives to a specific key?
Use the get_key_neighbors capability by providing the name of your starting key (e.g., 'G Major'). It will return the dominant, subdominant, and relative major/minor keys.
- 07
How do I identify natural modulation paths for a song?
Use the calculate_modulation_paths capability. By specifying a starting key and a maximum distance, you can see which keys are reachable with 'Immediate' or 'Adjacent' difficulty levels.
- 08
Can this capability help me understand key signatures?
Yes, the get_key_signature_details capability provides the exact order of sharps or flats, the total count of accidentals, and the available modes for any given key.
