How do I connect my Hudu instance?

You subscribe to the MCP on Vinkius and enter your Hudu Instance URL and API Key. Once connected, your AI client can immediately start interacting with your data.

Which AI clients can I use with this MCP?

You can use any MCP-compatible client, including Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, and VS Code.

Can I create new assets through the chat?

Yes, you can use the create_asset capability to add new hardware or software records to a specific company.

Is my password data secure?

The MCP uses your Hudu API credentials to securely retrieve specific password entries and secrets as requested by your agent.

Can I filter assets by client?

Yes, you can list assets and filter them specifically by a company ID to see only what belongs to one client.

Can I retrieve stored passwords for a specific client?

Yes. Use list_passwords with an optional company_id to filter passwords by client. Then use get_password with a specific password ID to retrieve the full entry including the secret. Use list_companies to find the company ID first.

Does Hudu require a custom instance URL?

Yes. Hudu is self-hosted or uses dedicated instances, so you need to provide your Instance URL (e.g., https://your-company.huducloud.com) along with the API Key. The API Key is sent via the x-api-key header (not Bearer), and all API calls are routed to {instanceUrl}/api/v1.

Can I track all assets for a specific company?

Yes. Use list_assets with the company_id parameter to retrieve all assets (servers, workstations, network devices) for a specific client. Use get_asset for detailed specifications and tags. Use create_asset to add new assets with a name, company ID, and optional asset tag.

MCP VERIFIED · PRODUCTION READY · VINKIUS GUARANTEED

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

Quickly grab a specific server's IP or an admin password while troubleshooting a client outage.

Client Onboarding

Create new company records and add their initial hardware assets using simple text commands.

Routine Audits

List all assets for a specific client to verify inventory against physical reality.

Automate a task

Put Hudu 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

Hudu 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 Hudu 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. 12 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 Hudu, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

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