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.

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.

Curated set · 4 capabilities

Capability set01 / 01

01-04

4 capabilities in this set.

Part of 4 available through Rice Drying Cost.

  1. 01

    Compare drying methods

    This capability compares the cost and yield outcomes of different drying methods for the same batch of grain.

  2. 02

    Get drying cost estimate

    Use this to get a detailed estimate of the energy and operational costs for a specific drying run.

  3. 03

    Validate moisture parameters

    This capability checks if your proposed drying plan is physically possible and commercially viable.

  4. 04

    Optimize drying temperature

    This capability finds the best temperature to balance energy expenses against potential losses in head rice yield.

Real work

What teams actually run

01

Minimizing Fissuring

Use the temperature optimization capability to prevent grain cracking and maintain high head rice yield.

02

Budgeting Energy Costs

Calculate exactly how much natural gas or propane a specific drying run will consume.

03

Process Selection

Decide between batch or continuous flow drying based on cost and yield data.

04

Operational Planning

Verify that a proposed moisture reduction plan is actually viable for your equipment and market.

One connector, every AI

Rice Drying Cost 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 Rice Drying Cost 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. 4 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 Rice Drying Cost, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

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

FAQ

Questions Rice Drying Cost owners ask.

  • 01

    How does this MCP help with rice quality?

    It uses temperature optimization to find the best heat levels to prevent fissuring and protect head rice yield.

  • 02

    Can I compare different fuel types?

    Yes, you can use the capabilities to estimate costs for different energy sources like natural gas, propane, or electricity.

  • 03

    What AI clients can I use with this MCP?

    You can use any MCP-compatible client, including Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, and VS Code.

  • 04

    Does this capability calculate energy use?

    Yes, the get_drying_cost_estimate capability provides estimates for energy consumption and cost per hundredweight.

  • 05

    Can I check if my drying plan is realistic?

    Yes, the validate_moisture_parameters capability checks if your proposed plan is physically and commercially viable.

  • 06

    How can I minimize my total drying costs?

    You can use optimize_drying_temperature to find the temperature that balances energy costs against the value lost from reduced head rice yield.

  • 07

    What is the difference between the drying methods?

    You can use compare_drying_methods to see the specific energy consumption and yield loss for continuousFlow, batch, and inBin methods.

  • 08

    Can I check if my drying plan is safe?

    Yes, use validate_moisture_parameters to check if your target moisture and allowable yield loss are within acceptable limits.
