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 it identify difficulty spikes?

It uses the detect_progression_anomalies capability to find jumps in the data and calculates a smoothness score.

Can I use this to measure player frustration?

Yes, the evaluate_player_experience capability quantifies frustration and boredom based on combat metrics.

Do I need to host the MCP myself?

No, Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP for you. You just connect and start using the capabilities.

What kind of data should I provide?

You can provide enemy stats like HP and damage, player DPS curves, or time-to-kill values.

How do I identify a difficulty spike?

A difficulty spike is identified when the difficulty ratio increases by more than 50% compared to the previous enemy. You can use detect_progression_anomalies to find these specific locations.

What is a good Boss Ratio?

A boss ratio is considered valid and well-tuned if the boss difficulty is between 3 and 5 times the average difficulty of the surrounding minion enemies.

How is the frustration index calculated?

The frustration index counts the number of encounters where the time to kill (TTK) exceeds 60 seconds, indicating potentially tedious combat.

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

01-03

3 capabilities in this set.

Part of 3 available through Enemy Difficulty Curve Analyzer.

01
Analyze combat ratios
This capability calculates the relationship between enemy threat levels and player power. It helps you see if your combat math is fundamentally balanced.
02
Detect progression anomalies
This capability finds problematic jumps in difficulty and provides a smoothness score for your game flow. It flags where the progression becomes unstable.
03
Evaluate player experience
This capability quantifies the feel of the game by looking for indicators of boredom or frustration. It specifically measures the impact of boss encounters.

Real work

What teams actually run

Boss Fight Balancing

Check if a boss encounter is too punishing by evaluating its ratio against player power.

Early Game Tuning

Ensure the initial difficulty curve is smooth enough to retain new players.

Progression Audits

Run an anomaly check on a full level sequence to find sudden jumps in difficulty.

Scaling Validation

Verify that enemy HP and damage increase at a rate that matches player upgrades.

One connector, every AI

Enemy Difficulty Curve Analyzer 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 Enemy Difficulty Curve Analyzer 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.
