One connector, every AI
Ground Support Design 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 Ground Support Design 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.
Connect your client
One URL. Every client.
Activate the Connector, copy your link, and paste it into the client you already use. 4 capabilities arrive ready to run.
Preview access · not provider authentication
The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of Ground Support Design, so you can see the experience inside your AI.
It does not authenticate your account with Ground Support Design. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.

FAQ
Questions Ground Support Design owners ask.
- 01
What inputs are required for bolt pattern calculation?
To use calculate_bolt_pattern, you need to provide the rock mass quality, the stress ratio, and the excavation width in meters.
- 02
Can I verify if my design is safe?
Yes, you can use the evaluate_stability_safety_factor capability to check if your proposed bolt spacing and shotcrete thickness provide an adequate safety factor for the given conditions.
- 03
How do I get a final technical specification?
Once you have determined the bolt type, length, spacing, and shotcrete thickness, use get_design_summary to generate a complete technical specification.
