What is the difference between cyclomatic and cognitive complexity?

Cyclomatic complexity measures the number of structural paths in the code. Cognitive complexity measures how difficult the code is for a human to understand based on nesting and logic.

Which IDEs can I use this MCP with?

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

How do I know if my code is too risky?

The classify_risk_score capability maps your complexity numbers to levels like Low, Moderate, High, or Very High.

Do I need to host this myself?

No, Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP for you. You just connect your client and start working.

Can this MCP analyze my entire codebase?

The capabilities are designed to analyze specific snippets or functions provided to your agent for deep structural analysis.

What metrics does this capability calculate?

The capability calculates Cyclomatic Complexity, which counts structural decision points, and Cognitive Complexity, which measures the mental effort required to understand the code.

How is risk level determined?

Risk levels are assigned based on the cyclomatic score. You can use classify_risk_score to determine if a specific complexity value falls into Low, Moderate, High, or Very High categories.

Can I analyze an entire file?

Yes, by providing the full content of a file to the analyze_complexity capability, you can evaluate the complexity of the provided code block.

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

01-02

2 capabilities in this set.

Part of 2 available through Cyclomatic Complexity Calculator.

01
Classify risk score
This capability maps a numeric complexity score to a specific risk level. It categorizes results into Low, Moderate, High, or Very High so your agent can quickly flag dangerous code.
02
Analyze complexity
This capability calculates the cyclomatic and cognitive complexity of a code snippet. It looks at the decision points in your logic to determine how many paths exist and how much mental effort is needed to understand it.

Real work

What teams actually run

Refactoring Legacy Code

Your agent identifies the most convoluted functions so you know exactly where to start simplifying.

Automated Code Reviews

The agent flags code that exceeds a specific risk threshold during a review session.

Technical Debt Audits

You run complexity checks across a whole module to see where complexity is creeping up.

Test Coverage Planning

The agent uses cyclomatic scores to tell you how many test cases you need to cover every path.

One connector, every AI

Cyclomatic Complexity Calculator 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 Cyclomatic Complexity Calculator 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 Cyclomatic Complexity Calculator, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

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