agenticbudgetrouter-mcp — Claude Code MCP server
A remote service that tracks autonomous agent spending with cost quotes, policy gates, and digital receipts. Useful for enforcing strict cost controls across workflow runs.
claude mcp add --transport http agenticbudgetrouter-mcp https://agenticbudgetrouter.clauxel.com/mcpWhat agenticbudgetrouter-mcp does
This hosted service acts as a financial gateway for autonomous agent runs. It estimates task costs through quote_agentic_budget, evaluates spending limits with check_budget_policy, and asks for approval via request_spend_approval. When an execution finishes, issue_spend_receipt produces an expense record, and export_usage_evidence exports verifiable spending data.
The server runs over Streamable HTTP and requires a paid account. Backend code is private. Production calls will fail without a valid bearer token from the provider site. Clients send JSON-RPC payloads to https://agenticbudgetrouter.clauxel.com/mcp along with the Authorization: Bearer <token> header. Opening the endpoint directly in a web browser returns an authentication error in JSON format.
What it helps with
- Calculate agent workflow costs before launching runs
- Validate spending against budget policies
- Request formal approval for task expenses
- Generate digital receipts and export spend evidence
