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 Token Budget Calculator.

  1. 01

    Calculate budget status

    This capability provides a full snapshot of your current token consumption and remaining capacity. It also flags if you are hitting critical usage levels.

  2. 02

    Get component breakdown

    Use this to see which specific parts of your prompt are the most expensive. It breaks down usage by individual components.

  3. 03

    Validate safety margin

    This capability checks if your reserved tokens are enough to prevent a budget overrun. It ensures you have enough room left for the output.

Real work

What teams actually run

01

Long-Context Agent Management

Keep an agent running through multiple turns without it hitting the context limit unexpectedly.

02

RAG Optimization

Check how much space your retrieved documents are taking up compared to your total budget.

03

System Prompt Auditing

Determine if a massive system instruction is leaving too little room for user interaction.

04

Budget Guardrails

Set a hard limit and have the agent check its status before performing expensive operations.

One connector, every AI

Token Budget Calculator 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.

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 Token Budget Calculator, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Token Budget Calculator. 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 Token Budget Calculator owners hand off.

This is for developers and prompt engineers building complex, long-context agent workflows. It's for anyone who needs to keep their AI interactions within specific technical constraints.

  • 01

    AI Engineers

    They use it to manage token budgets for agentic loops and RAG pipelines.

  • 02

    Prompt Engineers

    They use it to optimize prompt structures and reduce unnecessary token spend.

  • 03

    LLM App Developers

    They use it to prevent application errors caused by context window overflows.

FAQ

Questions Token Budget Calculator owners ask.

  • 01

    How does this MCP prevent context overflows?

    It calculates the remaining budget and validates that your reserved tokens are sufficient to allow for the model's response.

  • 02

    Can I see which part of my prompt is the largest?

    Yes, the get_component_breakdown capability identifies exactly which parts of your prompt are the most expensive.

  • 03

    What clients can use this MCP?

    Any MCP-compatible client like Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, or VS Code can use these capabilities.

  • 04

    Does this work with any token limit?

    Yes, you define the budget and the capability calculates the status based on those specific numbers.

  • 05

    How do I know if I have enough room for a response?

    You can use the validate_safety_margin capability to check if your reserved tokens cover the remaining budget.

  • 06

    How does this capability help prevent context window errors?

    By using calculate_budget_status, you can track exactly how many tokens are left and receive critical alerts if your usage exceeds 90% or if your budget is exhausted.

  • 07

    What is the purpose of the reserved tokens?

    Reserved tokens act as a safety buffer to ensure there is enough room for the model's response, preventing the session from hitting hard limits unexpectedly.

  • 08

    Can I see which part of my prompt is using the most tokens?

    Yes, the get_component_breakdown capability provides a sorted list of all components from highest to lowest token usage.
