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.

Real work

What teams actually run

01

Pre-merge Validation

Ask your agent to check if the latest commit meets the required coverage threshold before you merge.

02

Identifying Coverage Gaps

Use the report tree capability to find specific directories or files that are under-tested.

03

Trend Monitoring

Have your agent list recent commits to see how coverage is trending over time.

04

Repository Management

Quickly list all repositories and their current status without navigating the web UI.

Automate a task

Put Codecov 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

Codecov 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 Codecov 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.

Connect your client

One URL. Every client.

Activate the Connector, copy your link, and paste it into the client you already use. 8 capabilities arrive ready to run.

Preview access · not provider authentication

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

It does not authenticate your account with Codecov. 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 Codecov owners hand off.

This MCP is built for engineering teams who want to keep quality metrics close to their code.

  • 01

    Software Engineers

    They use the agent to monitor coverage changes and audit file reports during development.

  • 02

    Engineering Managers

    They ask the agent to review team coverage trends and repository health.

  • 03

    DevOps Engineers

    They use it to quickly look up commit coverage and verify build status.

FAQ

Questions Codecov owners ask.

  • 01

    How do I connect my Codecov account?

    You need to provide your Codecov Global API Token, which you can find in your Codecov settings under Access.

  • 02

    Which AI clients can I use with this MCP?

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

  • 03

    Can I see coverage for specific files?

    Yes, you can use the report tree capability to see a hierarchical view of coverage that matches your project's file structure.

  • 04

    Does this work with my existing branches?

    Yes, the MCP can list and monitor coverage across your different branches and custom flags.

  • 05

    Where is the data hosted?

    Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP, so you don't have to worry about running it locally.

  • 06

    Can I see the coverage percentage for a specific commit?

    Yes! Use the get_commit_coverage_totals capability with the commit SHA. The agent will return the aggregate coverage percentage, hits, misses, and other metrics for that specific version of the code.

  • 07

    How do I check the coverage distribution across my project's folders?

    Use the get_coverage_report_tree capability. Your agent will fetch a hierarchical view of the report, showing you exactly which directories have high coverage and which need more tests.

  • 08

    Where do I find my Codecov API Token?

    Log in to your Codecov account, go to Settings, and select Access. You can generate and copy a new API token from the 'Tokens' section.
