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.

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.
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.
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.
Curated set · 4 capabilities
We ship only the actions that matter.
01-04
4 capabilities in this set.
Part of 4 available through Reef Depth Safety.
- 01
Calculate current depth
This capability finds the total water depth available at your specific reef location.
- 02
Assess navigation safety
Use this to check if a vessel can safely pass over a reef based on its physical requirements.
- 03
Calculate wave trough impact
This capability calculates how wave energy and orbital motion reduce the available water depth at the trough.
- 04
Determine safe passage window
This capability identifies if the current tidal state and wave conditions allow for a safe crossing.
Real work
What teams actually run
Reef Crossing Verification
Check if a specific vessel can clear a reef during a certain tidal state.
Wave Impact Assessment
Determine how much wave energy will reduce available depth at a location.
Tidal Window Planning
Find the best time to navigate a shallow area based on upcoming tides.
Draft Safety Checks
Verify that a boat's draft stays well above the minimum depth during wave troughs.
One connector, every AI
Reef Depth Safety 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.

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

Who it's for
Built for the work Reef Depth Safety owners hand off.
This MCP is built for maritime professionals who need to verify clearance in complex coastal waters.
- 01
Marine Navigators
They hand off tide and wave data to the AI to verify safe routes.
- 02
Vessel Captains
They use the AI to check if current conditions allow for reef crossings.
- 03
Maritime Safety Officers
They rely on the AI to assess risks associated with wave trough impact on depth.
FAQ
Questions Reef Depth Safety owners ask.
- 01
How does this MCP handle wave height?
It uses wave energy and orbital motion to calculate how much the trough depth reduces the available water.
- 02
Can I use this with Claude or Cursor?
Yes, you can connect this MCP to any MCP-compatible client like Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf.
- 03
Does it account for tides?
Yes, it uses tidal data to determine the total water depth available at a reef location.
- 04
What information do I need to provide?
You typically need to provide charted depth, tidal height, wave height, and your vessel's draft.
- 05
Is the hosting included?
Yes, Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP so it is ready to use as soon as you connect.
- 06
How does this capability account for wave motion?
The calculate_wave_trough_impact capability uses wave height and period to calculate how orbital motion reduces the available water depth at the trough.
- 07
Can I use this to plan a crossing?
Yes, the determine_safe_passage_window capability identifies if current tidal states allow for safe crossing and provides an estimated time window.
- 08
What is the difference between charted depth and total water depth?
Charted depth is the static seabed measurement, while total water depth is the sum of charted depth and the current tide height, calculated via calculate_current_depth.
