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

Capability set01 / 01

01-03

3 capabilities in this set.

Part of 3 available through Futures Convergence Strategy.

  1. 01

    Get market status

    This capability pulls the current raw relationship between spot and futures prices. It gives your agent the immediate state of the market basis.

  2. 02

    Calculate convergence metrics

    This capability computes the mathematical movement needed for convergence. It helps your agent assess the speed and risk of the price gap closing.

  3. 03

    Analyze convergence opportunity

    This capability determines if a specific contract offers a valid trade signal. It evaluates basis, time to expiry, and market trends to find BUY or SELL opportunities.

Real work

What teams actually run

01

Arbitrage Identification

Detect when a futures contract is trading at a significant enough basis to exploit the convergence to spot.

02

Trade Signal Validation

Confirm if a potential trade meets specific basis and time-to-expiry criteria.

03

Risk Assessment

Evaluate the mathematical movement required for a contract to reach its spot price.

04

Market Monitoring

Keep a constant eye on the relationship between spot and futures prices via your AI client.

One connector, every AI

Futures Convergence Strategy 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.

FAQ

Questions Futures Convergence Strategy owners ask.

    What does this MCP do?

    It provides capabilities to identify arbitrage opportunities by monitoring how futures prices converge toward spot prices.

  • 02

    Which AI clients can use this MCP?

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

  • 03

    How are trade signals determined?

    Signals are determined by analyzing the basis, the time remaining until expiry, and current market trends.

  • 04

    Do I need to host the MCP myself?

    No, Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP for you. You just connect your client and start working.

  • 05

    Can I use this for real-time monitoring?

    Yes, the get_market_status capability allows your agent to retrieve the current relationship between spot and futures prices.

  • 06

    What is the basis in this strategy?

    The basis is the percentage difference between the futures price and the spot price relative to the spot price.

  • 07

    How do I identify a BUY signal?

    A BUY signal is generated via analyze_convergence_opportunity when the basis is greater than 2%, days to expiry is less than 30, and the spot price is rising.

  • 08

    What is the convergence phase?

    The convergence phase is the window of time leading up to expiration where the mathematical necessity of price convergence becomes most actionable.
