How do I use this MCP with Claude?

You connect your Claude client to Vinkius once. After that, the capabilities in this MCP are immediately available for your agent to use in any conversation.

Can this MCP help me find why my trucks are waiting?

Yes. You can use the detect_capacity_bottleneck capability to see if the delay is caused by service speed, resource availability, or time window limits.

Does this capability work for planning future dock needs?

Yes. The optimize_dock_allocation capability recommends the number of docks required to handle specific volumes at your target efficiency level.

What happens if my utilization is over 100%?

An utilization rate over 100% means your current workload exceeds your available dock time, indicating an overloaded state.

Do I need to host this myself?

No. Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP for you. You just connect your client and start using the capabilities.

How can I identify if my docks are a bottleneck?

You can use the detect_capacity_bottleneck capability. It analyzes your dock count, unloading time, and delivery windows to determine if you are facing a WINDOW_LIMIT, SERVICE_LIMIT, or RESOURCE_LIMIT.

How do I estimate vehicle wait times?

Use the predict_vehicle_delay capability by providing your current utilization rate and average unloading duration. It will return an estimated delay in minutes.

Can this capability help with future capacity planning?

Yes, the optimize_dock_allocation capability allows you to input projected daily volumes and a target utilization rate (e.g., 0.85) to find the recommended number of docks required.

Waiting for input…

Works with modern AI clients that support MCP, including ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and more.

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.

Capability set01 / 01

01-04

4 capabilities in this set.

Part of 4 available through Receiving Dock Calculator.

01
Predict vehicle delay
Predicts how long vehicles will wait in line due to dock congestion. Your agent uses this to estimate average delays based on current throughput.
02
Detect capacity bottleneck
Identifies the specific factor slowing down your throughput. It checks if the constraint is caused by limited time windows, slow service, or resource shortages.
03
Optimize dock allocation
Recommends the right number of docks for your volume. It calculates the dock count needed to hit a specific efficiency target.
04
Calculate dock utilization
Measures how much of your available dock time is actually being used. It compares current vehicle volume against your total available hours.

Real work

What teams actually run

Peak Season Planning

Calculate how many extra docks you need to handle a 20% increase in daily vehicle volume.

Troubleshooting Delays

Find out if a sudden queue is caused by a narrow delivery window or slow unloading speeds.

Infrastructure ROI

Determine if adding a new dock will actually solve a bottleneck or if the issue is the time window.

Daily Capacity Audits

Check if your current dock utilization is exceeding 100%, indicating an immediate need for more resources.

One connector, every AI

Receiving Dock Calculator 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 Receiving Dock Calculator 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.

Preview access · not provider authentication

The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of Receiving Dock Calculator, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

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