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 Sourdough Tracker.

  1. 01

    Calculate feeding plan

    This capability calculates the exact weights of flour and water needed for your next feeding. It uses your desired ratio and current starter mass to provide precise measurements.

  2. 02

    Get hydration classification

    This capability identifies if your starter is stiff or liquid. It classifies the culture based on the hydration percentage you provide.

  3. 03

    Predict starter activity

    This capability estimates peak rise times and pH trajectories. It uses your starter's age and the ambient temperature of your kitchen to forecast activity.

Real work

What teams actually run

01

Daily Feeding

Calculate exactly how much flour and water to add to your starter to maintain a specific ratio.

02

Bake Timing

Predict when your starter will be at its peak so you can mix your dough at the right moment.

03

Hydration Checks

Verify if your starter's hydration level puts it in the stiff or liquid category.

04

Temperature Adjustments

Adjust your expectations for rise times when your kitchen temperature changes.

One connector, every AI

Sourdough Tracker 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 Sourdough Tracker 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. 3 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 Sourdough Tracker, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Sourdough Tracker. 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 Sourdough Tracker owners hand off.

This MCP is built for home bakers and professional fermentation enthusiasts who want to remove the guesswork from sourdough maintenance.

  • 01

    Home Bakers

    They hand off feeding math and timing predictions to their AI client.

  • 02

    Fermentation Hobbyists

    They use the capability to track microbial activity and hydration changes.

  • 03

    Culinary Students

    They rely on the capability to understand the relationship between temperature and rise times.

FAQ

Questions Sourdough Tracker owners ask.

  • 01

    How do I use this with Claude?

    You connect the MCP through the Vinkius platform. Once connected, your Claude client can immediately use the feeding and prediction capabilities.

  • 02

    Can it predict when my starter will be ready to bake?

    Yes. By providing the age of your starter and your current kitchen temperature, the capability predicts peak rise times.

  • 03

    Does it work for stiff starters?

    Yes. The capability includes a hydration classification feature to identify if your starter is stiff or liquid.

  • 04

    Do I need to provide my own math formulas?

    No. The MCP handles the math for feeding plans and hydration classifications automatically.

  • 05

    What information do I need for a feeding plan?

    You should provide your current starter mass and your desired feeding ratio.

  • 06

    How do I know if my starter is mature?

    You can use predict_starter_activity to estimate the maturity day. Typically, a starter reaches stability between day 7 and day 14.

  • 07

    What is an underfeeding risk?

    An underfeeding risk occurs when the feeding ratio is too low for the ambient temperature (e.g., ratio < 1:2:2 in warm conditions), which can lead to acid buildup.

  • 08

    Can I use this for stiff starters?

    Yes. Use get_hydration_classification to confirm if your starter is classified as stiff (50-65% hydration) or liquid (100-125%).
