How do I connect my FireHydrant account?

You subscribe to the MCP on Vinkius and then enter your FireHydrant API Key, which you can find in your FireHydrant settings under API Keys.

Which AI clients can I use with this MCP?

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

Can I actually create incidents through my AI agent?

Yes, you can declare new incidents directly by telling your agent the severity and name of the issue.

Does this replace the FireHydrant dashboard?

It doesn't replace it, but it gives you a way to perform key actions like updating timelines and checking services without leaving your coding or chat environment.

Where is the data hosted?

Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP, so you don't have to worry about running the connection yourself.

How do I declare a new incident using the agent?

You can use the 'create_incident' capability. Simply provide a name and optionally a summary and severity level. The agent will trigger the declaration in FireHydrant and return the new incident details.

Can I see recent infrastructure changes using this server?

Yes! The 'list_change_events' capability retrieves a history of recent changes. This is extremely useful for identifying potential root causes during an active incident investigation.

How do I add a status update to an ongoing incident?

Use the 'add_incident_note' capability. You'll need the Incident ID and the text of your update. The note will be immediately posted to the incident's timeline for all responders to see.

Waiting for input…

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.

Automate a task

Put FireHydrant to work on one thing.

Step-by-step automations your AI runs through this Connector: the workflow, the prompts to start with, and the exact capabilities behind each move.

One connector, every AI

FireHydrant 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 FireHydrant 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 FireHydrant, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

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