Get pricing details for a specific LLM model. Args: - model (string): Model ID or name to look up (e.g., "gpt-5", "claude-sonnet-4.6", "gemini-3-pro") Returns: Model pricing details including input/output costs per 1M tokens, context window, and max output. Returns an error message if the model is not found, with suggestions for similar models. Examples: - "gpt-5" → GPT-5 pricing from OpenAI - "claude-opus-4.6" → Claude Opus 4.6 pricing from Anthropic - "gemini" → First matching Gemini model

Compare pricing across multiple LLM models side by side. Args: - models (string[]): Array of model IDs or names to compare (2-10 models) Returns: Side-by-side comparison table with input/output costs, context windows, and relative cost differences. Examples: - ["gpt-5", "claude-sonnet-4.6"] → Compare OpenAI vs Anthropic pricing - ["gpt-5-mini", "gemini-3-flash", "claude-haiku-4.5"] → Compare budget models

Calculate the cost for a specific number of input and output tokens with a given model. Args: - model (string): Model ID or name - input_tokens (number): Number of input tokens (0 to 100B) - output_tokens (number): Number of output tokens (0 to 100B) Returns: Cost breakdown with input cost, output cost, and total cost in USD. Examples: - model="gpt-5", input_tokens=1000, output_tokens=500 → Cost for a typical API call - model="claude-sonnet-4.6", input_tokens=100000, output_tokens=4000 → Cost for a long context call

Find the cheapest LLM models, optionally filtered by provider or minimum context window. Args: - provider (string, optional): Filter by provider (e.g., "OpenAI", "Anthropic", "Google") - min_context (number, optional): Minimum context window size in tokens - sort_by (string, optional): Sort by "input", "output", or "combined" cost (default: "combined") - limit (number, optional): Number of results to return (default: 10, max: 30) Returns: Ranked list of cheapest models with pricing details. Examples: - {} → Top 10 cheapest models overall - { provider: "OpenAI" } → Cheapest OpenAI models - { min_context: 200000, sort_by: "input" } → Cheapest 200K+ context models by input price

List all available LLM models with pricing data, optionally filtered by provider. Args: - provider (string, optional): Filter by provider (e.g., "OpenAI", "Anthropic", "Google") Returns: List of all models with IDs, names, and providers. Use model IDs with other tools. Examples: - {} → All 60+ models - { provider: "Anthropic" } → All Anthropic Claude models

List all LLM providers with model counts and pricing ranges. Returns: All providers with the number of models and pricing range for each.
