Le ChatBuilding your own app? The connector is yours to use.
You don't need a client to put Open Pit Pushback Design 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. 4 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 Open Pit Pushback Design, so you can see the experience inside your AI.
It does not authenticate your account with Open Pit Pushback Design. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.

FAQ
Questions Open Pit Pushback Design owners ask.
- 01
How do I define a new expansion phase?
You can use the get_pushback_boundaries capability by providing the ultimate pit boundary, the current pit boundary, and the desired slope angle.
- 02
Can I check if my mine plan meets annual targets?
Yes, the validate_production_schedule capability checks your sequence of pushbacks against your annual ore target to ensure feasibility.
- 03
How is the stripping ratio managed?
The optimize_stripping_ratio capability helps adjust pushback geometries to achieve a specific waste-to-ore ratio.
