Does ModelCostSaver need API keys?
No. The core does pricing math, not provider calls, so there is nothing to leak. No API keys are required.

}Estimate the cost of a single LLM call for one model from known or estimated token counts. Offline, no keys.
Forecast the cost of a prompt across candidate models before the call. Returns a cheapest-first ranking with assumptions. Offline.
Pick the single cheapest model that meets the task tier, capabilities, and budget, with full reasoning and a fallbackChain. Offline.
Compare models side by side for a fixed token shape, cheapest first, with the multiple of the cheapest. Offline.
Return the model catalog with pricing, optionally filtered. capabilities are arrays. Offline.
Return the model catalog with pricing, optionally filtered. capabilities are arrays. Offline.
Check whether a cheaper capable model exists for a call you plan to make, and report the savings. Offline.
ModelCostSaver is an MCP server that predicts the cost of an LLM call before you make it and selects the cheapest model that still meets the task requirements. It works offline from your editor, requires no API keys, and has no telemetry. It is intended for AI coding agents and IDEs that need cost-aware model routing.
Run it directly with npx -y @workswarm/modelcostsaver — no install or keys needed. Add it to your editor (Cursor, Claude Code, VS Code, etc.) via the install --client <name> command or by pasting the stdio MCP config block. Once connected, the server exposes seven tools: estimate_cost, predict_cost, select_optimal_model, compare_models, list_models/get_pricing, optimize_request, and record_usage.

Yes. Core tools return correct answers with no network access. An opt-in catalog refresh (`MODELCOSTSAVER_REFRESH=on`) can fetch a static JSON, but falls back to the bundled catalog on any failure.
No. The default is silent and local. The `record_usage` tool only writes when `MODELCOSTSAVER_LEDGER=on` is set, and only to a JSONL file under your own config directory.
Exact token counts if you supply them; otherwise a heuristic estimate (~4 characters per token, tunable via `MODELCOSTSAVER_CHARS_PER_TOKEN`). Output tokens come from an explicit value, the task class cap, the model cap, or a conservative default.
The bundled catalog has a `catalogVersion` and `asOf` date on every entry. The seed is re-checked against each provider's public pricing page at release. The `asOf` date tells you when the data was last confirmed.
