Overview

AI-generated overview

Routes each LLM completion to the cheapest capable provider across eight providers, using your own API keys.

What you can do
The server exposes an LLM completion routing capability: for each request it selects the cheapest provider among eight that can handle it, then returns the completion. It operates on a bring-your-own-key basis, meaning your own provider credentials are used for the underlying calls. No individual tools are listed in the manifest or description.
When to use it
Worth considering when you want an assistant to reach several LLM providers through one endpoint and prefer cost-based selection over a fixed provider. It suits users who already hold API keys for multiple providers and want to avoid managing each integration separately.
Requirements
A remote streamable HTTP endpoint at reachable over the network. OAuth authentication is required. No packages, environment variables or headers are declared. The description indicates a bring-your-own-key model, so you need your own API keys for the LLM providers you want to use.
Before you install
The description says BYOK, so you supply your own provider API keys; those credentials are handled by a third-party remote service. Requests and prompts pass through that service to whichever provider it selects, so do not send sensitive content. The manifest declares OAuth as required, and no tool list is published, so review the provider's terms and data handling before use.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Cheaprouter in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Connect the required credentials. They are stored privately and never shown on public pages.
  3. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/io.github.carlosalbertorussell%2Fcheaprouter/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows

Other MCP clients

Add this to your client's mcpServers config. The client completes OAuth sign-in on first connect.

This server asks you to sign in, so SourceWeft could not read its tools without an account and has not indexed them. What a connected account sees can depend on that account and its permissions.

How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.
