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.

A futuristic MCP client docking bay
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.

Rapid Query Testing

You ask your agent to run a mutation to verify a new schema change immediately.

02

Performance Debugging

Your agent analyzes a slow GraphQL query to see the underlying SQL execution plan.

03

Environment Auditing

You use the agent to check if metadata is consistent across different deployments.

04

Database Maintenance

You tell your agent to perform a pg_dump for a quick schema backup.

Automate a task

Put Hasura to work on one thing.

Step-by-step automations your AI runs through this Connector: the workflow, the prompts to start with, and the exact capabilities behind each move.

One connector, every AI

Hasura 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 Hasura 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. 7 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 Hasura, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

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

FAQ

Questions Hasura owners ask.

  • 01

    How do I connect my Hasura engine to my AI client?

    You subscribe to the MCP on Vinkius and provide your GraphQL endpoint URL and Admin Secret. Once connected, your agent can immediately start using the available capabilities.

  • 02

    Can I use this with any AI client?

    Yes, this MCP works with any client that supports the Model Context Protocol, including Claude, Cursor, and Windsurf.

  • 03

    Is my connection secure?

    The connection is secured using your Hasura Admin Secret, which is used to authenticate requests to your endpoint.

  • 04

    Can the agent help me optimize my database?

    Yes, the agent can use the explain_graphql capability to inspect the generated SQL and execution plans for your queries.

  • 05

    Can I perform database backups through the agent?

    Yes, the agent can execute pg_dump on any connected Postgres source via the pg_dump capability.

  • 06

    Can I see the actual SQL query that Hasura generates for my GraphQL request?

    Yes! Use the explain_graphql capability. It will return the generated SQL and the execution plan from the database, helping you debug performance issues.

  • 07

    How do I check if my metadata is inconsistent or if the server is down?

    You can use the check_health capability. If you set the strict parameter to true, it will specifically check for metadata consistency in addition to basic connectivity.

  • 08

    Is it possible to export my database schema through this server?

    Yes, the pg_dump capability allows you to execute a schema dump on your connected Postgres source, which is useful for migrations or backups.
