  • orcarouter_chatwrite action

    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 \u2014

  • orcarouter_model_card

    Get detailed information about a single model \u2014 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.

  • 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` \u2014 filters compose (all conditions must match) and are applied server-side. Discover valid provider ids first with orcarouter_providers_list. Returns th

  • orcarouter_providers_list

    List all model providers on OrcaRouter with their `provider_id`, human-readable `display_name`, `icon_url`, and `model_count`. Call this first to discover valid provider ids (e.g. 'openai', 'anthropic', 'google', 'qwen', 'deepseek') which you can then pass to orcarouter_models_list as the `provider` filter. Takes no parameters and returns the same list on every call until the deployment's catalog

Install OrcaRouter in Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code

Runs npx -y @orcarouter/mcp on your machine. Read the scan report first; the gateway never runs local packages.

claude mcp add orcarouter-mcp -- npx -y @orcarouter/mcp

OrcaRouter MCP Server

Official MCP server for the OrcaRouter LLM gateway.

English | 日本語 | 中文 | 한국어 | Deutsch | Français | Español | Italiano | Русский | Português | Tiếng Việt | हिन्दी

Browse OrcaRouter's model catalog and run chat completions from inside any Model Context Protocol client — Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Zed, or anything else that speaks the protocol.

Catalog browsing works without an API key — compare pricing and capabilities before signing up.

What you can do

  • 🗺️ Discover providers and models without an API key
  • 💬 Run chat completions through any served model
  • 🧠 Auto-route requests through your workspace's orcarouter/auto router (cost / quality / balanced / LinUCB / gated-adaptive strategies)
  • 🔁 Configure fallback chains (primary + up to 4 fallbacks) for resilience
  • 📊 Filter models server-side by provider, capability, or minimum context window
  • 🎯 Inspect detailed model cards: pricing, context, latency, supported endpoints
  • 🔌 Works with Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Zed, and any MCP client

Examples

Try saying things like:

  • "List all providers on OrcaRouter"
  • "Show me all Anthropic models with their pricing"
  • "Get details about minimax/minimax-m2.7"
  • "Chat with orcarouter/auto and explain quantum computing"

Quick Start

Claude Code (CLI one-liner)

claude mcp add orcarouter -s user \
  -e ORCAROUTER_API_KEY=sk-orca-your-key \
  -- npx -y @orcarouter/mcp

Other clients (config-file path)

  1. Copy the example config for your MCP client into the client's config file:

See examples/README.md for the config-file paths and notes on Zed and other clients.

  1. Replace sk-or-... in the copied file with your OrcaRouter API key.
  2. Restart your MCP client.
