How do I connect my HetrixTools account?

You just need to provide your HetrixTools API Token, which you can find in your Account Settings under the API section.

Which AI clients can I use with this MCP?

You can use this MCP with any compatible client, including Claude, Cursor, and Windsurf.

Can I run blacklist checks on demand?

Yes, you can ask your agent to perform real-time blacklist scans for any IPv4 address or domain.

How do I avoid false alerts during maintenance?

You can tell your agent to set a monitor to maintenance mode, which can be configured to either send or suppress notifications.

Does Vinkius host the MCP?

Yes, Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP, so you only need to connect your client once to start using the capabilities.

How do I find my HetrixTools API Token?

Log in to your HetrixTools account, navigate to Account Settings, and click on the API tab. You will be able to generate and copy your unique API Token from there.

Can I perform on-demand blacklist checks?

Yes! Use the check_ip_blacklist or check_domain_blacklist capabilities. These trigger real-time scans across 90+ blacklists. Note that these requests can take a few minutes to complete.

What are the maintenance modes for monitors?

The integration supports three modes: 1 (Normal), 2 (Maintenance with notifications enabled), and 3 (Maintenance without notifications). Use set_maintenance_mode to toggle these.

Is the integration secure for monitoring data?

Waiting for input…

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.

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.

Real work

What teams actually run

Incident Response

When a service goes down, you ask your agent for the status and error logs immediately.

Pre-Deployment Checks

Before updating a server, you tell your agent to put the monitor into maintenance mode.

Mail Server Auditing

You use the agent to check if a domain is blacklisted to solve email delivery issues.

Resource Management

You ask your agent for account usage stats to ensure you aren't hitting API limits.

Automate a task

Put HetrixTools 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

HetrixTools 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 HetrixTools 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.

Activate the Connector, copy your link, and paste it into the client you already use. 11 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 HetrixTools, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

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