best_prompt
Get the full sourced prompt that best matches a shot, optionally for a target model, with creator credit and source.
recommend_model
Recommend a model for a shot with evidence: how many sourced shots used each model, the cheapest vendor-stated $/s, and an estimated total.
get_prices
Vendor-stated $/second prices with source URL and check date. Filter by family or host. Discontinued rows are excluded unless asked for.
Ready-to-Paste Client Configurations
Paste either (or both) of these JSON server blocks into your client config file (e.g. claude_desktop_config.json or ~/.cursor/mcp.json).
