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 Steel Connection Weld Size.
- 01
Calculate minimum weld size
This capability determines the minimum allowable weld size to prevent cracking based on the thickness of your steel parts.
- 02
Determine required length
Use this capability to calculate exactly how long a weld must be to safely resist a specific applied load.
- 03
Calculate weld strength
This capability calculates the total load-carrying capacity for a specific weld configuration.
- 04
Recommend weld parameters
This capability provides a complete specification package including size, length, and electrode type for a given connection scenario.
Real work
What teams actually run
Connection Design
Determine the minimum weld size for new steel connections based on part thicknesses.
Load Verification
Check if a planned weld configuration can handle a specific applied load.
Specification Drafting
Generate a complete list of weld sizes, lengths, and electrodes for a project.
Safety Auditing
Verify that existing weld lengths are sufficient to resist design forces.
One connector, every AI
Steel Connection Weld Size 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 Steel Connection Weld Size 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.

FAQ
Questions Steel Connection Weld Size owners ask.
- 01
What standards does this MCP follow?
The calculations are based on AISC and EN structural standards.
- 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 through Vinkius.
- 03
Does it provide electrode types?
Yes, the recommend_weld_parameters capability provides electrode classifications as part of the specification package.
- 04
How does it prevent weld cracking?
It uses the calculate_minimum_weld_size capability to determine the minimum size needed based on the thickness of the steel parts.
- 05
Can it calculate the capacity of a weld?
Yes, the calculate_weld_strength capability calculates the total load-carrying capacity for a specific configuration.
- 06
Which standards does this capability follow?
The calculations adhere to AISC (American Institute of Steel Construction) and EN (European) standards.
- 07
Can I get a full specification for a weld?
Yes, by using the recommend_weld_parameters capability, you receive the minimum size, required length, electrode classification, and effective throat.
- 08
What inputs are needed for strength calculation?
To use calculate_weld_strength, you need the applied force, weld length, effective throat, weld type, electrode strength, and process efficiency.
