}

Values you fill in

MCPSPEND_API_KEY secret env
Your MCPSpend API key. Create one at https://mcpspend.com/dashboard/keys. Starts with mcps_live_ or mcps_test_. Optional — the server boots and lists tools without it; only tool calls require auth.
MCPSPEND_ENDPOINT env
Optional. Override the MCPSpend API endpoint. Defaults to https://api.mcpspend.com. Use only if you self-host MCPSpend.

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

Common questions

Is Mcpspend safe?

It passed 3 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

You need to fill in: MCPSPEND_API_KEY

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed 2 months ago, and the latest version (0.2.1) reached the registry 6 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

MCPSpend

Know what your AI agents really cost. Real-time cost tracking for every MCP tool call across Cursor, Claude Desktop, Windsurf, and VS Code.

[mcpspend.com](https://mcpspend.com) · [Smithery](https://smithery.ai/servers/andreisirbu91-lab/mcpspend) · [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@mcpspend/proxy) · [Open VSX](https://open-vsx.org/extension/McpSpend/mcpspend-vscode) · [Glama](https://glama.ai/mcp/servers/andreisirbu91-lab/MCPSpend)

One-command install

npx --yes @mcpspend/proxy@latest init --key mcps_live_xxx

Auto-detects Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code (user + workspace), and Claude Code (user + project). Wraps every configured MCP server, leaves a .mcpspend.bak backup, and starts streaming usage to your dashboard at mcpspend.com.

Free tier: 25,000 tool calls/month, no credit card.

What's in this monorepo

Package	What it is
`packages/proxy`	`@mcpspend/proxy` — the stdio observability proxy + `wrap-http` bridge for remote MCP servers. Published on npm.
`packages/mcp-server`	`@mcpspend/mcp-server` — query your MCPSpend usage from inside any MCP client. Published on npm + Smithery.
`packages/vscode-extension`	`mcpspend-vscode` — IDE extension for Cursor, Windsurf, and VS Code. Published on Open VSX.
`apps/api`	Express + Prisma + Postgres + BullMQ. The ingest endpoint, billing, and the new `/api/mcp` HTTP MCP server.
`apps/dashboard`	Next.js dashboard at mcpspend.com.

Three ways to query your usage

Use case	How
Web dashboard	mcpspend.com/dashboard — overview, top tools, sessions, CSV export.
From any MCP client (stdio)	Add `@mcpspend/mcp-server` to your client config — agent gains tools like `get_today_cost`, `list_top_tools`.
From any MCP client (HTTP)	Point your client at `https://api.mcpspend.com/api/mcp` with `Authorization: Bearer mcps_live_…`.

Pricing

Plan	Calls/month	Monthly	Yearly
Free	25,000	$0	$0
Pro	1,000,000	$29	$290 (2 months free)
Team	10,000,000	$99	$990
Enterprise	unlimited	$499	$4,990

Every paid plan: 30–90 day retention, CSV/Slack export, budget alerts, role-based access.

Privacy

The proxy reports: tool name, server name, model, latency, success, approximate input/output sizes (tokens, derived from JSON length). It does not send the actual tool arguments or response bodies to MCPSpend. See Privacy Policy for the full sub-processor list (Stripe + Resend + Hostinger, all EU-hosted) and your GDPR rights.

Security

For automated scanners flagging this repo: the proxy uses child_process.spawn to wrap the user's *own* MCP server — that's the whole point of an observability proxy. The spawn args come from the user's local MCP-client config (Claude Desktop / Cursor / Windsurf / VS Code), never from network input. No RCE path, no privilege escalation, no arbitrary command execution. Full threat model in SECURITY.md.
