What is the Lium - GPU cloud remote MCP server?
The Lium - GPU cloud remote MCP server is a hosted Model Context Protocol endpoint at https://docs.lium.io/mcp, so AI assistants can connect to it without installing or running anything locally.

About Lium - GPU cloud MCP Server
Find, price and rent GPUs on Lium from Claude, ChatGPT, Codex or any MCP client. Search live GPU availability and prices (H100, H200, B200, RTX 4090 and more), estimate provider earnings, and with Sign in with Lium or a Lium API key rent, list and remove pods and check your balance. Docs search is included.

11Search the Lium documentation for pages matching the query. Use for how-to questions (renting, SSH, templates, providing GPUs); for live GPU availability or prices use search_gpus or get_gpu_prices instead. Optionally filter by audience (providers, validators, pod-users, developers); without one, pages for the other side (renter or provider, guessed from the query) rank lower.
Return the raw Markdown source for a documentation page. Accepts a full URL, absolute slug (e.g. /providers/quickstart), or basename (e.g. quickstart). On tie among basenames, prefers pages in audience order: Providers > Validators > Renters > Developers.
List GPU nodes that can be rented on Lium right now, cheapest per GPU-hour first, with live USD prices and a rent link for each. Use when the user wants a specific machine (GPU model, count, country, price cap); use get_gpu_prices for a price overview. Each node has tier (secure or spot), reliability_score and min_gpus_per_rental (some nodes rent only whole). Read-only: next_step says how to rent one.
Live price range (min, median, max USD per GPU-hour) and free GPU count for each GPU model rentable on Lium right now. Use for "what does an H100 cost" or comparing models; use search_gpus to pick a node to rent. Pass count for multi-GPU quotes: a 1-GPU price can come from a node with one free GPU.
Estimate what a provider earns per month on Lium by listing GPUs of a model, as the rewards calculator does: rental income (95% of the renter price) and rented extra at the last 30 days' utilisation, plus idle pay at the validator's rate for every unrented hour; with what those GPUs actually earned and the middle-half range across providers. Use when someone asks what their GPUs could earn on Lium; for renting GPUs use search_gpus. An estimate, not a guarantee.
Rent a GPU pod on Lium with your API key and wait until it runs; returns the pod id and the ssh command. Spends money from your Lium balance: the pod is billed per second until remove_pod, also when idle. Give gpu (and count, optional max_price_per_gpu_hour and country) to let Lium pick the cheapest matching node, or node_id from search_gpus alone for that node. idempotency_key is required: if a call fails or times out, retry with the same key within 24 hours so it cannot rent twice.
Your Lium pods with status, ssh command and price per hour.
One pod: status, ssh command (once RUNNING), price per hour and spend so far.
Request pod deletion. Billing stops when accepted; deletion may finish asynchronously (get_pod shows DELETING). Data on the pod is lost.
Your Lium balance in USD.
Docker templates a pod can start from (official ones, your own and other users' public ones; official and yours mark which), for rent_pod template_id.
Overview

Authentication
Search and prices work without authentication. Renting and account operations require Sign in with Lium (OAuth) or a Lium API key.
Local server
Install with pip install lium.io, then run lium mcp.
Frequently asked questions
How do I connect to the Lium - GPU cloud MCP server?
Add the endpoint https://docs.lium.io/mcp to any MCP-compatible client such as Claude Code, Cursor, or VS Code. The setup snippets on this page configure each client in one step.
Does the Lium - GPU cloud MCP server require authentication?
Yes. Lium - GPU cloud uses OAuth: the first time you connect, your MCP client opens a browser window to sign in and authorize access, then reuses the credentials for future sessions.
Which transport does the Lium - GPU cloud MCP server use?
Lium - GPU cloud exposes a Streamable HTTP endpoint, the transport used by remote MCP servers and supported by all major MCP clients.
