SandBase CLI Overview

SandBase CLI connects MCP-compatible AI clients to a catalog of more than 2,000 AI models and APIs. It lets agents search available services, inspect schemas and pricing, execute synchronous or asynchronous runs, and review usage costs. Use it when an agent needs access to multiple AI APIs without configuring each provider separately.
