How do I use this MCP with my AI client?

You connect your client, like Claude or Cursor, to Vinkius once. After that, the capabilities are available for your agent to call directly.

Can this capability help with nitrogen fixation?

Yes, you can use the species search and impact metrics capabilities to find and quantify nitrogen benefits for specific species.

Will this prevent crop interference?

Yes, the check_rotation_compatibility capability is designed to verify if a cover crop will interfere with your planned cash crop.

What kind of data does it provide for species?

It provides data on biomass, nitrogen contribution, and compatibility with your specific climate zone.

Do I need to host this myself?

No, Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP for you. You just connect and use it.

How do I find species for my specific region?

You can use the species_search capability by providing your specific climate zone to see a list of compatible species.

Can I compare multiple species at once?

Yes, the calculate_selection_score capability allows you to input a list of species to rank them against your primary objectives.

Will this capability help prevent crop interference?

Yes, the check_rotation_compatibility capability evaluates the relationship between your cover crop and your intended cash crop to minimize risk.

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 Cover Crop Selector.

01
Estimate impact metrics
This capability quantifies the physical and economic outcomes of a species or mix. It provides data on things like biomass and nitrogen levels.
02
Check rotation compatibility
Use this to verify that your selected cover crop won't mess up your next cash crop. It checks for potential interference in your planting schedule.
03
Species search
This capability finds cover crop species that work with your specific environmental conditions. It searches for plants compatible with your climate and soil.
04
Calculate selection score
This capability ranks specific plant species or mixes based on the decision criteria you set. It helps you compare different options side-by-side.

Real work

What teams actually run

Nitrogen Management

Your agent identifies species that maximize nitrogen fixation for your specific soil needs.

Rotation Planning

You check if a specific cover crop will negatively affect your next cash crop.

Biomass Estimation

The AI calculates the expected biomass production for a selected plant mix.

Climate-Specific Selection

You find cover crops that are biologically suited to your local environmental conditions.

One connector, every AI

Cover Crop Selector 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 Cover Crop Selector 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.
