Security Report

4.8
Use Caution4.8High Risk

InferenceIndexer MCP server is well-structured with appropriate authentication handling and reasonable permissions. The server reads inference pricing data from an external API and exposes it through MCP tools. Input validation is present (limit/days bounds), credentials are properly stored in environment variables, and no dangerous patterns detected. Minor code quality improvements around error handling and logging could be made. Supply chain analysis found 5 known vulnerabilities in dependencies (0 critical, 5 high severity). Package verification found 1 issue.

InferenceIndexer MCP Server

Model Context Protocol server exposing InferenceIndexer's live + historical inference pricing as agent callable tools. Instead of an agent assembling inference pricing itself (slow, incomplete), it can call these tools to get complete pricing, historical trends, provider comparison, and the SIT index.

Tools

ToolDescription
search_modelsSearch/list models with current pricing (by text, tier, sort)
get_modelFull detail + current price for one model
get_model_historyHistorical price trends for one model (the differentiator)
list_providersAll providers with model counts + price stats
get_providerDetail for one provider (models, tiers, price range)
get_composite_latestCurrent SIT-Composite index value + tier breakdown
get_composite_historySIT-Composite index history / trend
compare_providersPrice of one model across all providers that host it

Config (env)

  • II_API_BASE - InferenceIndexer API base (default https://api.inferenceindexer.ai)
  • II_API_KEY - Optional bearer key (public server works without one; a key raises rate limits)
  • II_SSR_SECRET - Optional first-party secret for self-hosted/higher-tier use only. Not set on the public server.

Run

stdio (recommended for local/agent-run):

uv sync
uv run inferenceindexer-mcp

Serve over HTTP/SSE (for remote clients, e.g. the hosted endpoint at https://api.inferenceindexer.ai/mcp):

uv run inferenceindexer-mcp --transport streamable-http --port 8899

Connect an agent / MCP client

Claude Desktop / generic MCP client (stdio):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "inferenceindexer": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["inferenceindexer-mcp", "--transport", "stdio"]
    }
  }
