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

Runs on the maker’s server: what you ask it goes through their server.
You fill in yourself: Authorization

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

You need

Runs in the cloudNothing to install; it connects over the internet

Which app do you use?

ClaudeClaude CodeCursorVS CodeChatGPT

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 modelglass https://modelglass-api.vercel.app/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": {
    "modelglass": {
      "url": "https://modelglass-api.vercel.app/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

Common questions

Is Modelglass safe?

It passed 1 of 1 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 (1.0.2) 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: Spec Driven Development, Remote Desktop Commander, debuff

Modelglass's VS Code extensions — route dev tasks (and generate video/audio) to the cheapest capable option against your own provider keys, or bring the live Modelglass pricing/capability feed into Copilot's agent mode as MCP tools.

What Modelglass is

Modelglass is a pricing-and-capability data layer for AI models — image, video, audio, and LLM — built as a sourced, append-only registry: every price carries a source URL and the date it was verified, and a repricing is a new dated entry, never a silent overwrite. It's served two ways: a free comparison site, and a paid read API + MCP server (https://modelglass-api.vercel.app, POST /mcp) for operators wiring model pricing into their own tooling. Modelglass itself doesn't proxy your traffic or pick a model at runtime — it's the data other people's tools (including both extensions in this repo) read.

What this repo is

An npm workspaces monorepo publishing two independent VS Code extensions, each installable on its own:

Package	What it is	Marketplace
`packages/router`	Modelglass Cost-Aware Router — routes dev tasks to the cheapest capable LLM (and generates video via Runway, audio via ElevenLabs) directly against your own provider keys, BYOK, no Modelglass proxy in the request path. Also available directly inside Copilot Chat's model picker.	`modelglass.cost-aware-router`
`packages/mcp`	Modelglass MCP — registers the live Modelglass MCP server directly in Copilot's agent mode, no manual `.vscode/mcp.json` editing. Seven read-only tools (models, pricing history, competitors, account/tier info) — Copilot's agent decides when to use them, this extension just makes them discoverable.	`modelglass.modelglass-mcp`
`packages/shared`	Internal only, not published. `SecretStorage`-backed auth (`ensureApiKey`/`peekApiKey`) and the Modelglass API base URL, shared by both extensions above.	—

Both extensions use the same Modelglass account/API key — installing one doesn't require separately authenticating the other. See each package's own README.md for full usage docs, including a screenshot of it in action.

Development

npm install                              # installs + links all three workspace packages

npm run typecheck # all packages npm run test # all packages (packages without a test script are skipped) npm run build # all packages

per-package:

npm run build --workspace packages/router npm run package --workspace packages/mcp # -> packages/mcp/*.vsix

To run an extension locally: open packages/router or packages/mcp as the VS Code workspace root and press F5 to launch an Extension Development Host with your changes loaded — standard VS Code extension tooling, no custom launch config needed. See CONTRIBUTING.md for the full local-dev + PR flow.

The router/mcp split is tracked as SCO-434 in the main modelglass repo's Linear project.
