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.

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

Pokemon TCG API 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 Pokemon TCG API 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.

One URL. Every client.

Activate the Connector, copy your link, and paste it into the client you already use. 8 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 Pokemon TCG API, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

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

FAQ

Questions Pokemon TCG API owners ask.

  • 01

    How do I search for a specific card?

    You can simply ask your AI client to find a card by name or use the list_cards capability to perform specific queries.

  • 02

    Can I see what cards are in a specific set?

    Yes, you can use the get_set capability to pull metadata for a specific expansion or list all available sets.

  • 03

    Does this MCP provide card images?

    Yes, the get_card capability provides links to high-resolution images for individual cards.

  • 04

    Do I need an API key?

    An API key is optional, but entering one allows you to access higher rate limits.

  • 05

    Which AI clients can I use with this?

    This MCP works with any compatible client, including Claude, Cursor, and Windsurf.

  • 06

    Can I search for cards from a specific set like 'Base Set'?

    Yes! Use the list_cards capability with a query parameter like q="set.name:base". You can combine this with other filters like name or type.

  • 07

    How do I see all the available card rarities in the game?

    Simply run the list_rarities capability. It will return a complete list of all rarity strings used in the database, such as 'Rare Holo', 'Uncommon', or 'Promo'.

    Is an API key required to use this server?

    An API key is optional. The server will work without one using the public tier, but providing a key from pokemontcg.io allows for much higher rate limits and faster responses.
