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.

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.
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.
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 · 4 capabilities
We ship only the actions that matter.
01-04
4 capabilities in this set.
Part of 4 available through Greenhouse Layout Engine.
- 01
Optimize density configuration
This capability finds the best orientation for your trays or pots. It rotates and positions items to minimize empty space and maximize density.
- 02
Validate placement integrity
This capability checks if a proposed layout is physically possible. It verifies that items stay within bench boundaries and do not overlap.
- 03
Calculate bench capacity
This capability determines the maximum number of items that can fit on a specific bench. It uses the dimensions of your trays or pots to find the total capacity.
- 04
Generate layout plan
This capability maps out the exact placement of items on your benches. It creates a specific plan based on your provided dimensions and aisle requirements.
Real work
What teams actually run
New Crop Setup
Calculate how many trays of a new seedling variety will fit in your current bench configuration.
Space Auditing
Check if your current bench density is actually the most efficient possible orientation.
Facility Reconfiguration
Test new bench layouts and aisle widths before moving physical equipment.
Inventory Planning
Determine if you have enough bench capacity to house an incoming shipment of pots.
One connector, every AI
Greenhouse Layout Engine 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.

Le ChatBuilding your own app? The connector is yours to use.
You don't need a client to put Greenhouse Layout Engine 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 Greenhouse Layout Engine, so you can see the experience inside your AI.
It does not authenticate your account with Greenhouse Layout Engine. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.

Who it's for
Built for the work Greenhouse Layout Engine owners hand off.
This MCP is for professionals managing commercial growing environments who need to maximize their footprint.
- 01
Greenhouse Manager
Hands off bench dimensions and tray sizes to the AI to get instant layout plans.
- 02
Production Planner
Uses the capability to calculate total capacity for upcoming crop cycles.
- 03

Checks if new bench configurations can accommodate specific tray or pot counts.
FAQ
Questions Greenhouse Layout Engine owners ask.
- 01
How does this MCP handle aisle requirements?
The capability incorporates required aisle widths into its spatial calculations to ensure layouts remain functional for workers.
- 02
Can I use this with Claude or Cursor?
Yes, you can connect this MCP to any MCP-compatible client like Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf.
- 03
Does it account for the size of the pots?
Yes, you provide the dimensions of the pots or trays, and the capability uses them to calculate capacity and placement.
- 04
What happens if a layout is physically impossible?
The validation capability will identify if an item exceeds bench boundaries or violates clearance rules.
- 05
Do I need to host the MCP myself?
No, Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP for you, so it is ready to use as soon as you connect.
- 06
How do I know if my layout is valid?
You can use the validate_placement_integrity capability to verify that your proposed layout adheres to all physical constraints and clearance rules.
- 07
Can I rotate my trays to save space?
Yes, you can enable rotation in capabilities like calculate_bench_capacity and generate_layout_plan to find the most efficient orientation.
- 08
What is the purpose of the clearance parameter?
The clearance parameter defines the mandatory buffer space required around each item to prevent overcrowding and allow for plant growth.
