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 · 4 capabilities

We ship only the actions that matter.

Capability set01 / 01

01-04

4 capabilities in this set.

Part of 4 available through Stud Wall Load Calc.

  1. 01

    Calculate lateral capacity

    This capability determines the maximum horizontal pressure a wall can withstand. It calculates wind pressure resistance based on your specific wall parameters.

  2. 02

    Validate wall configuration

    This capability checks your construction parameters against standard building practices. It flags configurations that don't meet typical industry standards.

  3. 03

    Calculate axial capacity

    This capability calculates how much vertical weight a single stud can safely support. It provides the allowable vertical load based on the assembly specs.

  4. 04

    Get material properties

    This capability retrieves hardcoded strength characteristics for specific wood species. It pulls the necessary data for SPF, HF, or DF to feed into other calculations.

Real work

What teams actually run

01

Wind Load Analysis

Calculate if a specific stud wall can handle expected lateral wind pressures.

02

Vertical Load Verification

Determine the safe vertical weight a wall can support based on stud spacing.

03

Material Selection

Compare the strength of different wood species like SPF versus Douglas Fir.

04

Design Compliance

Check if a proposed wall height and spacing setup follows standard practices.

One connector, every AI

Stud Wall Load Calc 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 Stud Wall Load Calc 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. 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 Stud Wall Load Calc, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Stud Wall Load Calc. 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 Stud Wall Load Calc owners hand off.

This MCP is built for professionals working with wood-frame construction and structural design.

  • 01

    Structural Engineers

    They hand off NDS-based load calculations to their AI to speed up design verification.

  • 02

    Residential Designers

    They use the capability to check if wall configurations meet standard building requirements.

  • 03

    Construction Managers

    They verify load capacities for specific wood species on job sites.

FAQ

Questions Stud Wall Load Calc owners ask.

  • 01

    What standards does this MCP use?

    This MCP uses the National Design Specification (NDS) for Wood Construction for all calculations.

  • 02

    Which wood species are supported?

    The capability includes strength data for species such as SPF, HF, and DF.

  • 03

    Can I check wind resistance?

    Yes, you can use the lateral capacity capability to find the maximum horizontal pressure a wall can withstand.

  • 04

    Does it validate my wall design?

    Yes, the validation capability checks if your construction parameters meet standard building practices.

  • 05

    How do I use this with Claude or Cursor?

    You connect your client to Vinkius once, and the capabilities become available to your AI agent immediately.

  • 06

    How do I find the strength properties of a specific wood type?

    Use the get_material_properties capability by providing the species name, such as 'SPF', 'HF', or 'DF'.

  • 07

    Can I calculate wind pressure resistance?

    Yes, use the calculate_lateral_capacity capability with your wall height and stud spacing to find the allowable lateral pressure in psf.

  • 08

    What wood species are supported?

    The server currently supports Spruce-Pine-Fir (SPF), Hemlock-Fir (HF), and Douglas Fir (DF).
