Which Copilot surface supports this?

The custom MCP server path works in VS Code's Copilot Chat and in the Copilot CLI (copilot mcp add, with the config stored in your mcp-config.json). The consumer Copilot app uses built-in connectors and doesn't accept custom URLs today.

If I connect Grape Press Optimizer to Copilot, can I use the same connection in Claude or ChatGPT later?

Yes, and that's the point: the connection is yours, not Copilot's. You paste the same link in any AI you use, and there's nothing new to set up or pay again. Connect a new AI and Grape Press Optimizer is already there.

Do I need to hand my Grape Press Optimizer password to Copilot?

Never. You sign in once at Vinkius, and we keep your logins encrypted and away from your AI. Copilot only ever sees the link, and you can remove it whenever you want.

What can I actually ask Copilot to do with Grape Press Optimizer?

Whatever the Connector covers: check data, run actions and bring answers back into the session. The Connector page lists every capability your AI gains, with real examples you can copy.

Copilot doesn't show the Connector. What do I check?

Open the MCP list in your editor or run copilot mcp list, confirm the server was added with the link pasted exactly as copied, and confirm the Connector is active in your Vinkius account. A deactivated Connector stops responding.

Can I remove the access later?

Anytime. Remove the server from your MCP list (or your mcp-config.json) and it's out of your sessions. Your Vinkius account keeps the connection and its history either way, ready for the next AI.

Mission Control

See everything your Microsoft Copilot agents do in Grape Press Optimizer.

When Copilot runs a tool in Grape Press Optimizer, it happens on Copilot's side: you see the result, but not the request itself, what data it carried, or whether a rule was broken.

Now every move lands on your screen.

Every execution is recorded, enforced, and shown to you: what ran, what it returned, what was blocked, and why.

Request Volume & Latency

requests latency

Every request your Microsoft Copilot agents make through Grape Press Optimizer is logged, enforced and auditable. See how AI Governance turns agent activity into accountability, and what it means for your Grape Press Optimizer workflows.

What sets us apart

It's not just the Connector that stays safe. Everything your agents do through it is.

Connecting Grape Press Optimizer to your AI is step one. But an open line between your agents and Grape Press Optimizer is only half the story: without protection, every action they take runs unguarded.

That's why protection doesn't stop at the door.

Every action your agents take through the Connector runs inside our infrastructure: signed activity logs, automatic key rotation, spending limits that pause instead of surprise, and a sandbox that isolates every execution.

Tamper Proof Activity Log

Every request your agents make in Grape Press Optimizer is recorded and signed, so any change to the history becomes detectable.

Automatic Key Rotation

We rotate security keys every 24 hours. Your Grape Press Optimizer connection stays protected without any manual work.

Spending Protection

We enforce the spending limit you choose and pause actions that exceed it until approval is received. Your Grape Press Optimizer actions never surprise you.

Isolated Sandbox

Every execution through Grape Press Optimizer runs isolated, with 34+ security rules covering memory, CPU, network access, file handling and execution.

Security Event Streaming

Security events flow to Splunk, Datadog or your own webhook, so Grape Press Optimizer activity lands in the tools you already rely on.

Instant Resume

Idle connections resume in 3 to 5 ms while preserving their state, keeping your Microsoft Copilot sessions responsive.

Malicious File Protection

We detect compressed files designed to exhaust system resources and block them before they ever reach Grape Press Optimizer.

Credential Validation

We test your Grape Press Optimizer credentials before saving them. Invalid credentials are rejected instead of being stored.

Separate Usage Limits

Usage stays isolated per account, so activity in one connection never consumes another account's allowance.

One Connector, one link, and the whole operation is protected. Not just the connection: everything your agents do through it.

These guarantees are not add-ons: they are the infrastructure every Grape Press Optimizer connection runs on. Read how our infrastructure protects everything your Microsoft Copilot agents do, end to end.
