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.

One connector, every AI

Runoff 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 Runoff 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.

Connect your client

One URL. Every client.

Activate the Connector, copy your link, and paste it into the client you already use. 5 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 Runoff Calculator, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Runoff Calculator. 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 Runoff Calculator owners hand off.

This MCP is built for professionals working in water resource management and environmental engineering.

  • 01

    Hydrologists

    They hand off storm event calculations and runoff modeling to the AI.

  • 02

    Civil Engineers

    They use the capability to determine runoff potential for site design and drainage planning.

  • 03

    Environmental Scientists

    They use the calculations to study soil-water interactions and landscape runoff.

FAQ

Questions Runoff Calculator owners ask.

  • 01

    What method does this MCP use for runoff calculation?

    This MCP uses the Soil Conservation Service (SCS) Curve Number method.

  • 02

    Which AI clients can I use with this MCP?

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

  • 03

    Can I adjust for soil wetness?

    Yes, you can use the calculate_adjusted_cn capability to account for different Antecedent Moisture Conditions.

  • 04

    Does it support multiple storm events?

    Yes, the generate_storm_series_runoff capability predicts runoff depth for a sequence of different storm events.

  • 05

    Do I need to host the MCP myself?

    No, Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP for you, so it is ready to use immediately after connection.

  • 06

    What is the SCS Curve Number method?

    It is an empirical model used to estimate direct runoff from precipitation in small watersheds based on soil type and land cover.

  • 07

    How do I account for wet soil conditions?

    You can use the calculate_adjusted_cn capability to adjust the base Curve Number for AMC I (dry), AMC II (average), or AMC III (wet) conditions.

  • 08

    Can I calculate runoff for multiple storm events at once?

    Yes, the generate_storm_series_runoff capability allows you to provide a list of rainfall depths to predict a series of runoff results.
