SandBase CLI Overview

SandBase CLI MCP server connects supported AI clients to more than 2,000 models and APIs through a local MCP bridge. Agents can search the catalog, inspect schemas and pricing, execute endpoints, poll asynchronous runs, and review usage costs. Browser authorization is required once, while the README says API keys do not need to be managed manually. Reach for it when an agent needs access to varied AI capabilities without configuring each provider separately.
