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.

FAQ

Questions Darkroom Chemical Mixing Plan owners ask.

  • 01

    How do I use this MCP with my AI client?

    You connect to the Vinkius-hosted MCP once, and it becomes available in any compatible client like Claude or Cursor.

  • 02

    Can I include a waste margin in my calculations?

    Yes, you can specify a waste margin in your prompt, and the agent will include it in the total volume calculation.

  • 03

    Does it work for any chemical?

    The agent can calculate any ratio you provide, but it can also verify if a chemical exists in your specific catalog.

  • 04

    What kind of math does it perform?

    It calculates the total volume, the amount of concentrate, and the amount of water needed based on your dilution ratios.

  • 05

    Do I need to host this myself?

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

  • 06

    How do I calculate the total volume needed for my session?

    You can use the calculate_tray_requirements capability to determine the total volume based on your tray count and the volume required per tray, including a safety waste margin.

  • 07

    Can I plan a whole session at once?

    Yes, the generate_full_mixing_plan capability allows you to input your tray requirements and a list of chemical requests to get a complete mixing plan for the entire session.

  • 08

    How does the waste allowance work?

    The waste allowance is a percentage added to your total volume to account for spills or residue, ensuring you have enough solution to complete your work.
