## What it does

Modelmeter supplies agents with structured updates about the AI model layer. It monitors planned retirements and provider pricing changes. Records include primary source quotes alongside a verification state.

The server offers seven MCP tools: `check_model_dependencies`, `list_deprecations`, `estimate_cost`, `get_model`, `list_models`, `get_price_history`, and `list_events`. It calculates token expenses for input and output volumes while tracking upstream reseller markups.

No local installation or authentication tokens are needed since the server runs remotely over Streamable HTTP at `https://modelmeter.xyz/mcp`. Wrong pricing is blocked by a schema rule requiring explicit human verification before data gets served.

## Requirements
- Remote server: `https://modelmeter.xyz/mcp`

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

**Platform CLI: remote server**
```bash
claude mcp add --transport http modelmeter https://modelmeter.xyz/mcp
```

### Codex

**Platform CLI: remote server**
```bash
codex mcp add modelmeter --url https://modelmeter.xyz/mcp
```

### Cursor

**Config file**
File `.cursor/mcp.json`:
```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "modelmeter": {
            "url": "https://modelmeter.xyz/mcp"
        }
    }
}
```

### GitHub Copilot

**Config file**
File `.vscode/mcp.json`:
```json
{
    "servers": {
        "modelmeter": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://modelmeter.xyz/mcp"
        }
    }
}
```

### Gemini CLI

**Platform CLI: remote server**
```bash
gemini mcp add -t http modelmeter https://modelmeter.xyz/mcp
```

## When to use it
- audit project code for deprecated or retiring LLM versions
- calculate token expenses for specific input and output sizes
- inspect historical pricing trends across different providers
- identify recommended replacement targets for sunsetted models

## Example prompts
- Inspect model identifiers in this repository with `check_model_dependencies` to check for sunset dates.
- Estimate call costs for `gpt-4o` with 2000 input tokens and 500 output tokens using `estimate_cost`.
- Look up pricing history for `claude-sonnet-4-6` via `get_price_history`.
