How does this MCP handle ingredient waste?

The get_scaled_ingredients capability allows you to include a waste allowance, which increases the calculated ingredient amounts to ensure you have enough after prep.

Can I check if my pot is big enough for a recipe?

Yes, use the validate_batch_capacity capability to check if a specific batch volume will fit in your container.

What AI clients can I use with this MCP?

You can use this MCP with any compatible client like Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, or VS Code.

Does this MCP calculate how many people I can feed?

Yes, the calculate_portion_yield capability tells you exactly how many portions you can get from a batch based on your portion size.

How do I get started?

Since Vinkius hosts the MCP, you just connect your client once and you have instant access to all the scaling capabilities.

How does the waste allowance work?

The waste allowance adds a percentage to the scaled ingredients to compensate for loss during preparation, such as peeling or residue left in bowls.

Can I check if my batch will fit in my pot?

Yes, you can use the validate_batch_capacity capability to compare the total volume of your scaled recipe against the volume of your container.

How many servings will I get from a batch?

You can use calculate_portion_yield to find out exactly how many full portions can be extracted from your total batch quantity.

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.

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 Recipe Batch Scaler 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.
