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.

How does the MCP help with residency decisions?

It weighs the host's terms, such as cost and accessibility, against your specific goals and constraints to suggest whether to apply, decline, or defer.

Can it help me write emails to residency hosts?

Yes, the capability can generate specific inquiries to help you resolve uncertainties with organizers.

Does this MCP handle my scheduling?

It creates a commitment plan that outlines how to balance a residency with your existing life and work obligations.

Where is the MCP hosted?

Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP, so you don't need to run it locally or manage credentials yourself.

How does the capability decide to 'Decline' a residency?

A residency is automatically declined if it violates any of your mandatory terms, such as exceeding your maximum cost threshold or failing to meet specific accessibility requirements.

What is the difference between 'Defer' and 'Decline'?

Decline means the residency is a non-starter due to hard constraints. Defer means the residency is interesting, but you need more information (like specific accessibility details) before you can commit.

Can I use this to manage my schedule?

Yes, you can use create_commitment_plan to outline how you will balance your existing obligations with the residency timeframe.

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.

How Vinkius works: one connection, every tool, in any AI

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.

Building your own app? The connector is yours to use.

You don't need a client to put Creative Residency Planner 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.
