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.

FAQ

Questions OpenStreetMap + Russian Wikipedia owners ask.

  • 01

    How many churches are in the Moscow dataset?

    The MCP includes data for approximately 1,000 Christian places of worship.

  • 02

    Can I find specific denominations?

    Yes, you can filter churches by denominations such as Russian Orthodox, Roman Catholic, Baptist, or Old Believers.

  • 03

    Does this include information on mosques and synagogues?

    Yes, the MCP has specific capabilities to find mosques and synagogues throughout Moscow.

  • 04

    Can I get historical information about monasteries?

    Yes, the monasteries_wiki capability provides Wikipedia entries for Moscow monasteries.

  • 05

    Does it provide location data?

    Every capability returns coordinates or area centers to help you locate the sites.

  • 06

    Do I need an API key?

    No. Every source is keyless and global: OpenStreetMap (Overpass + Nominatim) and Russian Wikipedia. The MCP defines no credentials.

  • 07

    Are all Moscow churches Orthodox?

    The great majority are Russian Orthodox, but the city also maps Roman Catholic, Baptist, Old Believer, Lutheran and other Christian congregations. Filter by denomination to separate them.

  • 08

    Why do monasteries match by name as well as tag?

    Some monasteries are tagged amenity=monastery, others only as a place of worship whose name contains "монастырь". The capability unions both so neither set is lost.

  • 09

    Can I find churches near a point?

    Pass lat + lon (and optionally km, 0.1–25) and the query narrows to a radius instead of the whole city. Do it before a long list. a citywide scan is capped at 200 rows.
