How do I use Set-List Planner with Claude?

You connect to Vinkius once, and then you can use the Set-List Planner capabilities directly within your Claude interface.

What data do I need to provide for song optimization?

To use the optimize_set_sequence capability, you should provide a list of songs that includes BPM, key, duration, and energy level.

Can this MCP help with vocal warmups?

Yes, the extract_performance_metadata capability can identify your primary warmup keys based on your song list.

Does it analyze tempo changes?

Yes, the analyze_transition_smoothness capability evaluates if tempo jumps between songs are too significant.

Do I need to host this myself?

No, Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP so it is ready to use as soon as you connect your client.

How does the energy curve optimization work?

The optimize_set_sequence capability rearranges your songs to follow a 'Standard' pattern: a high-energy opening, a lower-energy middle section (the valley), and a high-energy finale (the climax).

Can I check if my song transitions are smooth?

Yes, use the analyze_transition_smoothness capability. It calculates the distance between keys on the Circle of Fifths and measures tempo volatility to give you a smoothness rating.

How can I prepare for my vocal performance?

Use extract_performance_metadata to find the primaryWarmupKey. This identifies the most frequent key in your set, helping you prepare your vocal range effectively.

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.

Curated set · 3 capabilities

We ship only the actions that matter.

Capability set01 / 01

01-03

3 capabilities in this set.

Part of 3 available through Set-List Planner.

01
Extract performance metadata
This capability pulls preparation data from your set list. It identifies key patterns like your primary warmup keys and song durations.
02
Analyze transition smoothness
This capability evaluates the musical flow between two songs. It checks if tempo or key changes will feel jarring to your audience.
03
Optimize set sequence
This capability reorders your tracks into a logical energy arc. It builds a sequence that starts strong, dips in the middle, and hits a climax.

Real work

What teams actually run

Building a Club Set

Use the energy arc capability to ensure your set starts with high energy and ends on a high note for a crowded bar.

Avoiding Key Jumps

Check transitions between songs to make sure a sudden key change doesn't ruin the mood.

Vocal Preparation

Use metadata extraction to see which keys you'll be singing in most often so you can prepare your voice.

Setlist Rehearsal

Reorder your songs using the optimization capability to find the most efficient way to play your repertoire.

One connector, every AI

Set-List Planner 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 Set-List Planner 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.
