Connect your client

One URL. Every client.

Activate the Connector, copy your link, and paste it into the client you already use. 10 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 NIST NVD, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

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

FAQ

Questions NIST NVD owners ask.

  • 01

    Is an API Key mandatory?

    No. The NVD API allows public access without a key. However, using a key increases your rate limit significantly (up to 50 requests per 30 seconds).

  • 02

    What is a CPE string?

    CPE (Common Platform Enumeration) is a structured naming scheme for information technology systems, software, and packages (e.g., cpe:2.3:a:microsoft:exchange_server:2019).

  • 03

    How far back can I search for vulnerabilities?

    The NVD contains vulnerabilities dating back to the late 1990s. You can search the entire database by ID or keyword.
