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

01-04
4 capabilities in this set.
Part of 4 available through Code Review Economics.
- 01
Evaluate tool effectiveness
This capability calculates if the money you spend on code review software actually pays off. It compares capability costs against the value of defects caught to justify your budget.
- 02
Estimate team economics
This capability models how review effort is distributed across your engineers. It helps you understand how team size changes your review density and cost per developer.
- 03
Analyze review depth
This capability checks if your team is spending the right amount of time on PRs. It identifies if your current process is under-reviewed, over-reviewed, or perfectly balanced.
- 04
Calculate review roi
This capability computes the total financial return on your review process. It weighs the cost of engineering time against the value of the bugs you prevent from reaching production.
Real work
What teams actually run
Budget Planning
Use the AI to decide if a new automated testing capability will pay for itself this year.
Process Optimization
Check if your team's review depth is optimal to prevent burnout or missed bugs.
Team Scaling
Model how adding five new developers will change your review cost distribution.
Performance Reporting
Generate ROI figures to show leadership the value of the engineering department.
One connector, every AI

FAQ
Questions Code Review Economics owners ask.
- 01
How does this MCP calculate ROI?
It compares the cost of engineering hours and capability subscriptions against the financial value of the defects caught during the review process.
- 02
Can I use this with Cursor or VS Code?
Yes, you can connect this MCP to any compatible client including Cursor, Windsurf, and VS Code.
- 03
What is review depth?
Review depth is a measure of whether your team is spending too much or too little time on code reviews relative to the number of defects found.
- 04
Do I need to host this myself?
No, Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP for you. You just connect your client and start using the capabilities.
- 05
Can this help me justify buying new software?
Yes, the evaluate_tool_effectiveness capability is specifically designed to show the economic justification for capability investments.
- 06
How do I calculate the ROI of my reviews?
You can use the calculate_review_roi capability by providing the total review hours, the rework cost avoided, the cost of capabilities used, and the team size.
- 07
Can this capability help justify buying new linting or static analysis capabilities?
Yes, the evaluate_tool_effectiveness capability specifically calculates if the investment in review capabilities is justified by the value of defects they help avoid.
- 08
How does team size affect the results?
The estimate_team_economics capability analyzes how team size impacts the cost per engineer and the overall review density across your organization.
