About
Chinese frontier AI models as MCP tools via one OpenAI-compatible endpoint, zero platform fee.
Security Report
This is a straightforward OpenAI-compatible SDK and MCP server that forwards prompts and image requests to a single third-party gateway (aiapi-pro.com) using an API key from an environment variable. No shell execution, file access, hardcoded secrets, or obfuscation were found. The main concerns are that all user prompts and the API key go to one third-party relay, that remote JSON is passed unvalidated into the LLM context, and that the NOVAI_BASE_URL override could redirect the key if the environment is tampered with. Supply chain analysis found 5 known vulnerabilities in dependencies (0 critical, 5 high severity). Package verification found 1 issue.

- Endpoint:
https://aiapi-pro.com/v1(change onebase_urlline from any OpenAI code) - Free:
$2signup credit, no card; plus free-unlimited models (glm-4.7-flash,glm-4.6v-flash,glm-4.1v-thinking-flash,cogview-3-flash,cogvideox-flash) - Live pricing: https://aiapi-pro.com/china-ai-leaderboard.json
Install
PyPI package name: aiapi-pro (import name: novai). Once published:
pip install aiapi-pro
export NOVAI_API_KEY=sk-... # https://aiapi-pro.com/register ($2 free)
From source (always current):
pip install git+https://github.com/vvvvking/novai-python.git
export NOVAI_API_KEY=sk-... # https://aiapi-pro.com/register ($2 free)
SDK quickstart
from novai import chat, list_models, generate_image, pricing
print(chat("deepseek-v4-flash", "Explain MCP in one sentence."))
print(generate_image("cogview-3-flash", "a red panda astronaut")) # free model
print(pricing()["categories"][0]["models"][0]) # cheapest chat model, live
Any existing OpenAI code works by swapping the base URL:
from openai import OpenAI
c = OpenAI(base_url="https://aiapi-pro.com/v1", api_key="sk-...")
MCP server
Expose the models as tools to any MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline, ...):
{
"mcpServers": {
"novai": {
"command": "python",
"args": ["-m", "novai.mcp_server"],
"env": { "NOVAI_API_KEY": "sk-..." }
}
}
}
Tools provided: novai_list_models, novai_chat, novai_generate_image,
novai_free_models, novai_cheapest, novai_pricing_feed, novai_transparency.
Transparency
0% platform fee, 1.0x price multiplier, $5 min top-up, 60 req/min, unused-balance 7-day refund, failed video/3D jobs refunded in full. Machine-readable: https://aiapi-pro.com/transparency.json.
