Feature & Specification Comparison
Tools & Capabilities Breakdown
Orcarouter Mcp Server Tools (4)
orcarouter_chat
Send a single-turn chat request to OrcaRouter and return the assistant's response text. Default model is the workspace's auto-router. Use `orcarouter/<name>` for other routers or `<provider>/<model>` for direct calls. For OpenAI reasoning models (gpt-5/o1/o3/...), max_tokens is automatically routed to max_completion_tokens at the wire level. The optional `models` array sets a fallback chain — the primary `model` is tried first, then each entry on failure (5 entries total max, including the primary). Errors are returned as text content with isError:true; common cases include missing API key, rate limits, and upstream provider outages. Requires ORCAROUTER_API_KEY.
orcarouter_models_list
List LLM models in the OrcaRouter catalog. Each entry includes id, name, description, owned_by, context_length, supported_endpoint_types, and pricing (both per-token and per-million tokens). Filter by `provider`, `capability`, or `min_context` — filters compose (all conditions must match) and are applied server-side. Discover valid provider ids first with orcarouter_providers_list. Returns the full catalog when called without filters. Read-only, no API key required.
orcarouter_model_card
Get detailed information about a single model — display name, long description, pricing (per-call and per-million tokens), context window, max output, modalities (input/output), supported endpoints, latency percentiles (p50/p95), and release date. Use this when you already know the model id and want full details; for browsing or filtering across many models use orcarouter_models_list instead. Returns isError:true with a clear hint when the id is not found. Read-only, no API key required.
