Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Query cloud, AI and SaaS spend across 25+ providers: costs, budgets, anomalies, unit economics.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs in the cloud
  • Transport: Streamable HTTP
  • Category: Other
  • You need to fill in: Authorization

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 2 of 3 passed
  • Runs on the maker’s server: what you ask it goes through their server.
  • Can do 35 things (tools) list_cost_sources, query_costs, list_savings_recommendations, list_commitment_utilization …
  • You fill in yourself: Authorization

Values marked secret are keys to your account. Never share them or paste them into a chat.

You need

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

This address needs a key in a request header, which the add-connector menu cannot set. Use Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code instead.

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add --transport http plutus-cost-data https://console.plutus-cloud.com/api/mcp --header 'Authorization: your-value'

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "plutus-cost-data": {
      "url": "https://console.plutus-cloud.com/api/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

What it can do

Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 9, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.

  • list_cost_sources

    List the cost-source providers (AWS, GCP, Anthropic, etc.) enabled for this account. Each row's cost_basis says where that provider's money figures come from: "invoiced" = amounts the provider actually charged; "estimated_from_provider_rates" = an estimate built from the provider

  • query_costs

    Query time-bucketed spend for this account, optionally broken down by a dimension (service, region, linked_account, usage_type, operation, or identity) or by a custom cost-allocation tag (see list_cost_tags), and filtered by dimension values. `identity` is per-actor spend (e.g. a

  • list_savings_recommendations

    List active cost-reduction recommendations for this account. Most come from each provider's own already-computed engine (AWS Cost Explorer, Azure Advisor, GCP Recommender); rows with `source` = `plutus` are computed by Plutus itself (rightsizing, and `misconfiguration` below). `t

  • list_commitment_utilization

    List Reservation (RI) and Savings Plan utilization/coverage snapshots for this account — sourced from AWS Cost Explorer's own GetReservationUtilization/GetSavingsPlansUtilization APIs, one snapshot per commitment type per month. Shows how much of a purchased commitment is actuall

  • list_commitment_expirations

    List this account's Reserved Instance / Savings Plan / Azure Reservation commitments with their expiration dates, ordered soonest-first. `days_until_expiration` is computed server-side against the current UTC date (negative means already expired — rows are not pruned immediately

  • list_cost_tags

    List the virtual cost-allocation tag_keys defined for this account (e.g. "team", "product"), each with the cost_entries grain it's locked to and how many rules map dimension values to a tag_value. Use a tag_key with query_costs (breakdown_by: "tag") to see spend broken down by it

  • list_anomalies

    List detected cost anomalies for this account over a trailing lookback window — the real output of Plutus's nightly anomaly detector (severity, baseline vs. current spend, and what drove a tag-level spike), not something recomputed here from raw spend. Prefer this over eyeballing

  • explain_cost_change

    Explain a specific cost change: which timeline events line up with it, how strongly, and how much of the move Plutus could account for. Ask this about any point on a cost chart — it is not limited to anomalies the detector flagged (use list_anomalies for those; each already carri

  • list_anomaly_suppressions

    List this account's active anomaly suppressions — signatures (a provider+service pair, or a tag_key+tag_value) a human has marked as expected, so the detector stops surfacing them. Each has an `expires_at` (null = indefinite). Mirrors GET /api/accounts/:accountId/anomaly-suppress

  • list_tag_recommendations

    List suggested cost-allocation tag rules this account doesn't have yet — high-spend values currently falling through to "Untagged" for an existing tag_key, or a provider-native tag worth promoting into a virtual tag_key of its own (see list_cost_tags). Each recommendation carries

  • list_data_health

    List sync health for every cost/event/usage connection this account has — last synced time, next scheduled sync, the outcome of its most recent run, and `is_overdue` (no successful sync within twice the connection's own effective sync interval). `recent_failure_count` counts fail

  • list_scheduled_reports

    List this account's scheduled cost digests — schedule (daily, weekdays, weekly, monthly, quarterly, first/last business day, a chosen weekday or day of month, or custom dates, all UTC), scope (whole account, one cost source, or one cost-allocation tag value), every destination al

  • list_report_layouts

    List what a scheduled report's layout can be made of: the presets (executive summary, spend by service, AI spend, budgets and anomalies), and the dashboard widgets that can be rendered into a report — each with the cost-scope types it supports — plus the dashboard widgets that ca

  • list_dashboard_widget_catalog

    List the built-in ("preset") dashboard widgets available to place with create_dashboard/set_dashboard_widgets — small `kpi` stat tiles and larger `widget` data cards, each with the id (`catalog_id`) a {"kind": "preset", "catalog_id": "..."} widget spec references. There is no pre

  • list_dashboards

    List this account's org-shared dashboards — visible to every account member. Does not include any member's PERSONAL dashboard: those live in one specific signed-in user's own browser session and have no id an account-level MCP key can address. Use a returned `id` with get_dashboa

  • get_dashboard

    Fetch one org-shared dashboard's full layout — its placed widgets, custom metrics and custom charts, and their grid positions. A `widgets` entry references a preset catalog_id (see list_dashboard_widget_catalog); `customMetrics`/`customCharts` carry their own full config inline.

  • list_unit_metrics

    List this account's saved unit-economics metrics — each one a cost ÷ business-unit ratio such as "cost per 1k API requests" or "infra cost per order". `numerator_scope` says which slice of spend is on top (the whole account, one cost source, or one cost-allocation tag_value — see

  • query_unit_costs

    Compute one of this account's saved unit-economics metrics (see list_unit_metrics) over a date range — the cost of a slice of spend divided by the business units it produced. Each row carries `cost` (the numerator, in the USD base like every other figure this server returns), `qu

  • query_usage

    Query time-bucketed usage telemetry this account's own backend has pushed or synced in (e.g. API request counts, tokens processed) — the raw data unit-economics metrics divide cost by (see list_unit_metrics/query_unit_costs), inspected directly rather than through a pre-defined r

  • list_usage_dimensions

    List the distinct values seen for a usage dimension ("metric" or "external_customer_id") over a date range — useful for discovering filter values before calling query_usage. Each entry pairs the raw `value` with a `label` (for external_customer_id, the customer's name from accoun

  • query_events

    Query this account's business-event timeline (GitHub releases/PRs, PagerDuty incidents, Jira issues, GitLab, Salesforce onboarding/churn, Stripe subscription created/canceled, Vercel production deploys, Linear issue creation, Sentry newly reported errors) — the same events overla

  • list_event_facets

    List the distinct values seen for a faceted event metadata field over a date range — currently just "repo" (every GitHub repo with at least one event), the same facet the Event Explorer's repo picker uses. Useful for discovering query_events' meta_repo filter values before callin

  • list_cost_tag_rules

    List the actual match rules for one of this account's cost-allocation tag_keys (see list_cost_tags) — which dimension values (or provider-native tag) map to which tag_value, and in what priority order. Rules are evaluated in ascending priority and the first match wins; spend matc

  • list_cost_source_tag_keys

    List distinct provider-native tag/label keys actually present in this account's cost data (AWS Cost Allocation Tags, GCP/Hetzner labels, Azure tags) — useful for discovering what a "tags. " cost-tag-rule match could reference before creating one. Only ever populated on grain='ser

  • list_cost_source_tag_values

    List distinct values seen for one provider-native tag/label key (see list_cost_source_tag_keys) in this account's cost data.

  • list_teams

    List this account's teams (user groups) with their members and the cost-tag tag_value each is reserved under — team-scoped budgets (create_budget with scope_type: "team") reference a team's id as scope_ref. Mirrors GET /api/accounts/:accountId/teams.

  • list_tracker_links

    List the tickets linked to savings recommendations (findings included) and anomalies, with their tracker status, resolution and Plutus-side owner. status is open, done, closed_unresolved (closed as Won't Do/Duplicate/Declined), orphaned (ticket not found) or disconnected. Mirrors

  • list_repo_cost_mappings

    List which code repository (and, in a monorepo, which service directory) owns which cost entity (a resource, a Kubernetes workload or namespace, a tag value, a service or a linked account), with the match kind, a 0-1 confidence, the 30-day spend snapshot and whether the mapping i

  • list_budgets

    List this account's spend budgets with their current-cycle status (spend so far, projected total, ok/warning/exceeded state, and forecast state). Mirrors GET /api/accounts/:accountId/budgets. `projected_cents` is the app's trend-based estimate of the period total (it follows week

  • list_alert_channels

    List this account's alert notification channels (Slack/Teams/webhook/email) — need a channel's id to call create_alert_subscription. Never returns the channel's credentials/URL, only its id/type/name/enabled state.

  • list_alert_subscriptions

    List which alert channels are subscribed to which trigger (a specific budget's spend_threshold, or account-wide event_overage/cost_anomaly/commitment_expiring/sync_failure/misconfiguration). Mirrors GET /api/accounts/:accountId/alert-subscriptions.

  • list_alert_deliveries

    List recent alert delivery history for this account (did an alert actually fire, and did it send successfully) — the same data behind the Alerts page's delivery heatmap. Does not include the delivery error text. Mirrors GET /api/accounts/:accountId/alert-deliveries.

  • list_alert_history

    The delivery history behind the Alerts page table: every alert, scheduled report, report attached to an alert, and test sent through an alert channel in the last 90 days, with the channel and recipients, the budget and the threshold that fired (`trigger_key`), the window a report

  • list_dimensions

    List the distinct values seen for a given dimension (service, region, linked_account, usage_type, or operation) for one provider — useful for discovering filter values before calling query_costs.

  • get_cost_entries

    Fetch raw per-service cost entries for this account over a date range (unaggregated). Prefer query_costs for time-bucketed/aggregated spend — this is for inspecting individual rows. Each row's `cost` is in USD (see the response's top-level `currency` field), like every other figu

Common questions

Is Plutus safe?

It passed 2 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: Authorization

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (2.0.0) reached the registry 2 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

In the same category: World Monitor, Claude Flow, Tldraw
