How does this MCP help reduce food waste?

It uses expiry priority to ensure food that is about to spoil is allocated to recipients first.

Can I use this with my existing AI client?

Yes, you can connect this MCP to any MCP-compatible client like Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf.

Does it handle dietary restrictions?

Yes, the capability finds recipient groups that meet specific dietary requirements to ensure safe food distribution.

How are transport limits managed?

The calculate_optimal_allocation capability generates plans that respect the specific transport limits you provide.

Do I need to host the MCP myself?

No, Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP for you, so it is ready to use immediately after connection.

How does the capability handle food expiration?

The calculate_optimal_allocation capability prioritizes items with the earliest expiration dates to ensure food is distributed before it spoils.

Can I filter food by dietary requirements?

Yes, you can use query_available_surplus with a dietary filter or use find_eligible_recipients to find groups that match specific dietary tags.

How are transport constraints managed?

The transportLimit parameter in calculate_optimal_allocation ensures that the total portions allocated do not exceed the available transport capacity.

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

01-04

4 capabilities in this set.

Part of 4 available through Food Donation Allocation.

01
Calculate optimal allocation
This capability generates a distribution plan based on your specific constraints. It builds a suggestion that balances recipient priority with transport limits and food expiry.
02
Find eligible recipients
This capability identifies specific groups capable of receiving certain types of food. It filters recipient organizations based on their ability to handle the food you have available.
03
Query available surplus
This capability pulls a list of all currently available food supplies. It identifies items that have not yet been assigned to a recipient.
04
Validate allocation feasibility
This capability checks if a proposed distribution plan is actually possible. It verifies that the plan respects both physical transport limits and specific dietary constraints.

Real work

What teams actually run

Daily Surplus Distribution

A food rescue organization uses the AI to quickly match daily grocery surpluses with local shelters.

Dietary Requirement Compliance

An agent identifies which food donations can safely go to groups with specific allergy or dietary restrictions.

Transport Optimization

A logistics team uses the capability to plan deliveries that maximize the use of available truck space.

Expiry Management

The AI prioritizes the distribution of perishable goods to ensure they are consumed before they spoil.

One connector, every AI

Food Donation Allocation 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 Food Donation Allocation 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 Food Donation Allocation, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

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