What is a cluster set?

A cluster set is a training method where a large set is broken into smaller mini-sets with short rest periods in between to maintain higher intensity.

How do I use this with Claude or Cursor?

You connect once through Vinkius, and the capabilities become available as functions within your AI client's interface.

Can this capability help with hypertrophy?

Yes, it allows you to design protocols that manage fatigue to accumulate more effective volume for muscle growth.

Will it tell me if my rest periods are too short?

Yes, the design capability calculates the necessary rest duration required to maintain technical proficiency.

Does this MCP require any setup?

No, Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP, so you just connect your client and start using the capabilities.

What are cluster sets?

Cluster sets are a training technique where a large set is divided into smaller mini-sets separated by short rest intervals, allowing for higher intensity and volume.

How do I know if my training plan is safe?

You can use the validate_protocol_viability capability to check if your proposed cluster set design is physically realistic and assess its risk level.

Can I use this for both strength and muscle growth?

Yes, the capability supports different fatigue management profiles that cater to Power, Strength, and Hypertrophy training tiers.

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.

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.

Capability set01 / 01

01-04

4 capabilities in this set.

Part of 4 available through Cluster Set Designer.

01
Calculate set metrics
This capability calculates the total workload and the relative intensity profile for your planned cluster sets.
02
Design rest protocol
Use this to determine the specific rest duration needed between clusters to maintain technical proficiency.
03
Get cluster configuration
This capability structures your mini-sets based on your specific rep goals and how you want to manage fatigue.
04
Validate protocol viability
This capability checks if your proposed cluster set design is physically realistic for a standard training session.

Real work

What teams actually run

Strength Peak Programming

Design low-rep cluster sets to handle heavy loads while managing central nervous system fatigue.

Hypertrophy Volume Management

Structure mini-sets to accumulate high volume without hitting premature failure.

Protocol Validation

Check if a proposed set and rest scheme is actually doable before giving it to an athlete.

Workload Tracking

Calculate the exact tonnage and intensity profiles for complex training blocks.

One connector, every AI

Cluster Set Designer 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 Cluster Set Designer 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 Cluster Set Designer, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

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