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

Surf Trip Optimizer 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.

Preview access · not provider authentication

The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of Surf Trip Optimizer, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Surf Trip Optimizer. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.

FAQ

Questions Surf Trip Optimizer owners ask.

  • 01

    How does the packing calculation work?

    It uses 1D bin packing logic that accounts for nesting and overlapping surfboard shapes.

  • 02

    Can I check if a single surfboard fits?

    Yes, you can use the capability to validate if a single large board exceeds the trunk capacity.

  • 03

    What if I have multiple boards?

    The capability calculates the feasibility for a full set of boards by looking at how they nest together.

  • 04

    Which AI clients can I use this with?

    You can use this with any MCP-compatible client like Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf.

  • 05

    Does it account for the shape of the boards?

    Yes, it uses nesting efficiency factors to account for how boards overlap.

  • 06

    How does the capability account for surfboard shapes?

    The capability uses a nesting efficiency factor of 0.85, which assumes boards can overlap or nest by 15% due to their shape.

  • 07

    Can I check if a single large surfboard fits?

    Yes, you can use the validate_trunk_capacity capability to check if a single board fits in your trunk.

  • 08

    What inputs are required for the feasibility check?

    You need to provide the total vehicle trunk length in centimeters and an array of the lengths of each surfboard in centimeters.
