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.

How Vinkius works: one connection, every tool, in any AI
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.

Building your own app? The connector is yours to use.

You don't need a client to put Paris Open Data 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. 7 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 Paris Open Data, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

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

FAQ

Questions Paris Open Data owners ask.

  • 01

    How current is the Paris event data?

    The data comes directly from the official Paris open-data platform, providing real-time access to the current program.

  • 02

    Can I filter events by price?

    Yes, you can filter the "Que faire à Paris" program by price type, including gratuit (free) and payant (paid) options.

  • 03

    Does this MCP include information on street markets?

    Yes, it includes data on approximately 80 open-air markets, including what they sell and their operating days.

  • 04

    Can I check for road closures near me?

    Yes, the list_road_closures capability provides details on scheduled closures, including the type of closure and the affected direction.

  • 05

    How do I find works happening in a specific district?

    You can use list_works and filter by the 5-digit postal code for the specific arrondissement.

  • 06

    Do I need an API key?

    No. opendata.paris.fr serves all city datasets anonymously over its Opendatasoft REST API. This MCP defines no credentials and needs nothing configured.

  • 07

    What is the "Que faire à Paris" program?

    The City of Paris's official program of events, exhibitions and activities. list_events returns its entries (name, venue, start/end, category, access info) and event_program_summary breaks the program down by category, venue and week so you can find the exact filter values.

  • 08

    How do I find which markets are open on a given weekday?

    list_open_air_markets takes day as one of lundi, mardi, mercredi, jeudi, vendredi, samedi, dimanche, plus produit (e.g. "Alimentaire"), ardt (arrondissement "1".."20") and secteur ("A"/"B"). The whole market dataset (~80 rows) returns in one call.

  • 09

    How do I route around a closed street or a declared work?

    list_road_closures returns the scheduled closure periods per street with the closure type and progress state; list_works (or count_works) lists the registered building works, both filterable by arrondissement (cp_arrondissement "1".."20").
