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.

Curated set · 3 capabilities

We ship only the actions that matter.

Capability set01 / 01

01-03

3 capabilities in this set.

Part of 3 available through Depth of Field Calculator.

  1. 01

    Get sensor equivalence

    Adjusts the Circle of Confusion based on different sensor formats. This allows your agent to compare crop factors across different camera bodies.

  2. 02

    Calculate dof

    Calculates primary depth of field metrics. Your agent uses this to find near and far focus limits for a specific setup.

  3. 03

    Calculate hyperfocal

    Determines the hyperfocal distance. Use this when you need to find the furthest focus point for a specific lens and aperture.

Real work

What teams actually run

01

Macro Photography Planning

Your agent uses the macro magnification model to find precise depth of field for close-up subjects.

02

Landscape Focus Optimization

Calculate hyperfocal distance to ensure maximum sharpness from foreground to background.

03

Sensor Comparison

Compare how a specific lens setup performs on different sensor sizes using Circle of Confusion adjustments.

04

Technical Shot Analysis

Use the agent to verify if a specific aperture and distance will meet your depth of field requirements.

One connector, every AI

Depth of Field 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 Depth of Field 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.

Connect your client

One URL. Every client.

Activate the Connector, copy your link, and paste it into the client you already use. 3 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 Depth of Field Calculator, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Depth of Field Calculator. 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 Depth of Field Calculator owners hand off.

This MCP is built for anyone who needs to bridge the gap between AI reasoning and precise optical physics.

  • 01

    Photographers

    Use the agent to plan technical settings for specific shots.

  • 02

    Optical Engineers

    Hand off complex sensor equivalence math to your AI client.

  • 03

    AI Developers

    Give your agents a reliable way to handle photographic math without hallucinations.

FAQ

Questions Depth of Field Calculator owners ask.

  • 01

    How does this MCP handle macro photography?

    The engine automatically switches between standard and macro magnification models based on the focus distance you provide.

  • 02

    Can I use this for different camera sensors?

    Yes. You can use the get_sensor_equivalence capability to adjust the Circle of Confusion for various formats like APS-C or Micro 4/3.

  • 03

    What kind of clients can I use this with?

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

  • 04

    Is the math accurate?

    The MCP uses a deterministic engine designed for precise photographic calculations rather than probabilistic AI guessing.

  • 05

    Do I need to host the MCP myself?

    No. Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP for you, so it is ready to use as soon as you connect your client.

  • 06

    How does the capability handle macro photography?

    The calculate_dof capability automatically detects macro scenarios. If the focus distance is less than ten times the focal length, it switches from the standard formula to a magnification-based formula for higher accuracy.

  • 07

    Can I calculate sensor crop factors?

    Yes, you can use get_sensor_equivalence to determine the equivalent Circle of Confusion and the crop factor for various sensor formats including APS-C and Micro 4/3.

  • 08

    What is hyperfocal distance?

    Hyperfocal distance is the closest distance at which a lens can be focused while keeping objects from that distance to infinity acceptably sharp. You can find this value using calculate_hyperfocal.
