Kosha Model Discovery MCP server

Read from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.

• kosha_cheapest_model

  Find the cheapest AI model that meets your requirements. Returns ranked matches with per-million token pricing. Use this before routing a request to pick the most cost-effective option.

• kosha_context_strategy

  Advise on context management for a long-running conversation. Given a model and current token usage, returns ranked options (continue, enable prompt cache, compact + continue, switch to long-context tier, switch model, batch offload) with rough cost-per-turn math. Useful before deciding whether to summarize, swap models, or just keep going.

• kosha_model_detail

  Get full details for a specific model — pricing, capabilities, context window, tool dialect, structured output modes, status, and deprecation info.

• kosha_model_routes

  List all serving-layer routes for a model (direct provider, OpenRouter, Bedrock, Vertex, etc.) with pricing per route. Useful for finding the cheapest or most available path to a specific model.

• kosha_provider_health

  Get authentication and health status for all discovered providers. Shows which providers are active, which need credentials, and any recent discovery errors.

• kosha_query_models

  List AI models from the local kosha registry. Optionally filter by provider, mode, or capability tag. Returns id, provider, name, mode, context window, capabilities, and pricing.

• kosha_ranked_routes

  Rank chat-model routes by strategy: cheapest (price only), fastest (observed p95 latency), reliable (circuit-breaker state plus timeout / auth-error history), or balanced (weighted blend of all three). Providers whose breaker is open always sort last, so the result doubles as a failover order. Accepts the same filters as kosha_cheapest_model.

• kosha_resolve_alias

  Resolve a model alias or short name to its canonical ID and provider.
