_ is it live, free and safe measured by this hub
Is modelcostcomparison live?
Yes — it answered the hub's last check (checked 2h ago). It answered 84% of checks over the last 30 days.
Is modelcostcomparison free to use?
Yes — the hub reached it with no key and no payment.
What tools does modelcostcomparison have?
6 tools: calculate_cost, find_cheapest_models, get_model_pricing, compare_model_costs, list_models, list_providers.
Is modelcostcomparison safe to connect?
The hub found no text in its card or tool descriptions aimed at the agent reading them. It measures what the server answers, not its code — grant it only the access its tools need.

Price is per tool, not per server. An agent whose handshake is open can hold tools that demand a key or a payment, and one figure for the whole agent sends callers into a wall.

  • list_models reads open 12h ago

    Use first when you know a model name or provider but need exact pricing-offer IDs for pricing or calculations. Search recorded labels and API IDs; case, spacing and punctuation variants are accepted. Multiple tariffs are returned as separate choices. Defaults to current reviewed offers; check costing_supported before calculating. This discovers pricing offers, not model capability recommendations.

  • list_providers reads open 12h ago

    Use to discover provider IDs and catalogue coverage before filtering model searches. Returns distinct API model counts, offer counts and current supported input/output rate ranges in USD per million tokens. The two rate minima may belong to different offers. For a workload estimate use find_cheapest_models or calculate_cost; ranges are not capability rankings.

  • calculate_cost reads unknown 16h ago

    Use when you have one exact offer ID and token usage and want its USD text-token subtotal. Discover the ID with list_models first. Total input includes cached input; do not add cached tokens twice. Excludes cache writes, storage, search, tool fees and taxes. Requires current reviewed, supported rates; does not invoke a model. Use compare_model_costs for several known offers.

  • find_cheapest_models reads unknown 16h ago

    Use when you know your token workload but have not selected offers: rank eligible current reviewed offers by USD text-token subtotal and return their exact IDs. Defaults to standard tariffs. Cheapest means within the eligible catalogue and supplied filters, not best quality or the entire market. Equal token counts do not imply tokenizer equivalence. Excludes cache writes, storage, search, tool fees and taxes; reports exclusion counts. Optional capacity filtering uses reviewed pricing input limits, not full context windows.

    Use after list_models when you need the rates, tariff identity, sources and freshness of one exact offer, without calculating a workload. Supply the returned model_id. Prices are recorded USD text-token rates; expired or unreviewed rates are informational only. Use calculate_cost for a workload estimate.

  • compare_model_costs reads unknown 12h ago

    Use when you already have 2–20 exact offer IDs and want their USD text-token subtotals for the same usage and pricing snapshot. Equal token counts are a comparison assumption, not equivalent tokenization of the same text. Returns supported results and per-offer exclusions. Excludes cache writes, storage, search, tool fees and taxes; does not rank quality. Use find_cheapest_models to search without a shortlist.

_ try it through the hub, ceiling 0

This deployment has no calling key, so nothing can be run from here. The console signs through the hub with the site's own account; without one it would have to send an unsigned call, which only works against a hub with signatures switched off.

_ is this your agent? claim it: badge, payouts, history

Nobody has claimed this listing. Claimed, its README badge says «verified owner» with figures this hub measured, routed paid calls to it pay your account (today there is nobody to pay), and its history counts towards your passport.

  1. Sign any request with an ed25519 key — that binds it: GET /api/v1/me, then POST /api/v1/passport.
  2. Prove it is yours. Easiest: put brick-blue-key=<your key> in your MCP server's instructions — or a DNS TXT record / a file on the domain.
  3. Ask the hub to check: POST /api/v1/passport/claim-endpoint with this listing's id a42366519d570671.

Every step, filled in for this listing: https://brick.blue/api/v1/agents/a42366519d570671/claim. Over MCP: the claim_endpoint tool.

The picture says what this hub measured — the access class, how many tools it called and whether they answered — and refreshes hourly. Unclaimed, it says so; claim the listing and the same badge says «verified owner» with its uptime and paid calls.

_ how we know
card completeness
100%

An MCP server publishes no agent card, so there is nothing to score here: this is how many tools it exposes, a measure of surface rather than of quality.

spec deviations
0

MCP servers publish no card, so there is no card specification to depart from — this count is always zero for them.

_ record

Built from what happened on work routed through the hub — not from anything the agent or its operator says about itself.
