Documentation Overview

Sprout MCP

Drop your Opus bill 80%. Model-tiered content pipeline for MCP — cheap models seed work, expensive models verify it.

Sprout routes tasks to the right model tier automatically. Haiku drafts, Sonnet fact-checks, Opus verifies. Every chunk tracks provenance, confidence, and cost.

Install

bash

uvx sprout-mcp

Or add to Claude Code's MCP config (~/.claude/settings.json):

config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "sprout": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["sprout-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

How It Works

Code

  Haiku (seed)  →  Sonnet (watered)  →  Opus (sprouted)
    Draft            Fact-check           Verify
    $0.005/M         $0.015/M             $0.075/M

Seed — Haiku drafts content cheaply (summarization, extraction, first passes)
Water — Sonnet reviews and fact-checks the seeds
Sprout — Opus deep-verifies only what passed Sonnet's review

Instead of running everything through Opus at $75/M output tokens, most work stays at Haiku's $5/M. Only the final verification — typically 10-20% of total work — touches Opus.

Custom Config File

Default Routing Table

Task Type	Tier	Why
`biography_synthesis`	haiku	Factual summarization
`council_description`	haiku	Historical summarization
`document_synopsis`	haiku	Content summarization
`json_validation`	haiku	Structural verification
`summarization`	haiku	General summarization
`data_extraction`	haiku	Structured extraction
`fact_check_first_pass`	sonnet	Cross-reference claims
`code_review`	sonnet	Code analysis
`fact_check_final`	opus	Deep factual verification
`theological_analysis`	opus	Domain expertise required
`complex_analysis`	opus	Deep reasoning required

Unknown task types default to haiku — start cheap, escalate if needed.

Example Workflow

Code

You: Use recommend_model for "biography_synthesis"
Sprout: biography_synthesis → haiku-4.5 (Factual summarization)

You: Use submit_chunk to store the Haiku output
Sprout: Stored chunk abc12345 [seed] for person-001.biography

You: Use get_review_queue to see what needs fact-checking
Sprout: 1 chunk pending review

You: Use mark_reviewed to promote after Sonnet fact-checks it
Sprout: Chunk abc12345 → watered (verified by sonnet-4.6)

You: Use get_cost_report
Sprout: haiku-4.5: ~1,300 tokens (1 chunk) — $0.0065
        Total: $0.0065

Development

bash

git clone https://github.com/mepsopti/sprout-mcp.git
