Available components
Deprecated
This server is marked deprecated in the MCP registry.
The registry records this reason: Renamed: use dev.aicomputeradar/ai-compute-radar (https://aicomputeradar.dev/api/mcp).
How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically against the live server, and we only credit what we can confirm. How we score → Why this is hard to score →
Endpoint Security63
- The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key. View diagnostics → Pass
- Authorisation not fully verified: no authorisation is required to connect, but we couldn't read the tool list to see what that exposes. View diagnostics → Unverified
- HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path. View diagnostics → Pass
- The HSTS (Strict-Transport-Security) header is present. View diagnostics → Pass
- DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
Transport & Reachability0
- Transport check failed: declared streamable-http, but the endpoint redirected instead of responding directly. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
Schema Quality & AI Usability0
- Schema not yet verified: we couldn't read the endpoint's schema.Unverified
Stability & Change Management0
- Stability not yet verified: not enough scan history yet (needs a 30-day window).Unverified
Tool Coverage0
- Tool coverage not yet verified: we couldn't read the endpoint's tools.Unverified
Tool Safety0
- Tool safety not yet verified: we couldn't read the endpoint's tools.Unverified
Capabilities0
- Capabilities not yet verified: we couldn't read the endpoint's capabilities.Unverified
Unverified: 5 categories
Categories scored 0 because we could not verify them: authentication we do not have, an unreachable endpoint, or not enough scan history. We only credit what we can confirm.
How do I install the AI Model Radar MCP server?
AI Model Radar is a hosted endpoint at https://aimodelradar.dev/api/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →
find_fit Find models that fit a machine ~149
Which tracked models run on a given GPU or Mac: measured GGUF weights + computed context cache + runtime overhead versus usable memory. Returns the best recommendation and every verdict (EXCELLENT/GOOD/TIGHT/OFFLOAD_REQUIRED/NOT_RECOMMENDED/UNKNOWN) with plain-language reasons. Get hardware ids from list_hardware.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| context | integer | – | Context length in tokens (default 8192). |
| hardware | string | yes | Hardware id or page slug, e.g. rtx-4090, mac-studio-m3-ultra-96gb. |
| kv | string | – | KV-cache quantization (default f16). |
| model | string | – | Restrict to one model slug. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
gpu_prices GPU rental prices ~80
Median verified on-demand rental price per GPU class on Vast.ai (USD per hour), with min/p75 and offer counts, the collection timestamp, and per class the Rent Index: this week's median against last week and against the first week collected, a trend word, and the days excluded as marketplace glitches. The index describes what prices did; it never forecasts.
Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
list_hardware List hardware profiles ~38
Curated GPU and Mac profiles the fit engine knows — ids, memory, usable memory after margins, bandwidth. Use an id with find_fit.
Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
trending_models Trending models ~97
Tracked AI models ranked by Heat Score (0–100, weighted percentiles of measured Hugging Face/OpenRouter signals) with the raw signals, local-run facts (GGUF size, quantization) and links. Models still collecting a week of history have heat=null and rank after scored ones.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| limit | integer | – | How many models to return (default 12). |
| slug | string | – | Return a single model by slug. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
weekly_pick Pick of the week ~124
The current pick of the week: one tracked model chosen by a published rule (largest counted Heat Score rise among models that run comfortably on a consumer card of up to 24 GB), with the numbers frozen at selection time, a device-by-device fit ladder and the written report including its caveats. Pass week (e.g. 2026-w37) for a past issue. issue is null until the first issue is published.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| week | string | – | ISO week label of a past issue, e.g. 2026-w37 (default: the current issue). |

What is the AI Model Radar MCP server?
AI Model Radar is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as dev.aimodelradar/ai-model-radar. Which open models fit your GPU or Mac, measured. Model momentum, GPU rental prices, weekly pick. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://aimodelradar.dev/api/mcp).
Is the AI Model Radar MCP server safe to use?
AI Model Radar scores 25 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.
What tools does the AI Model Radar MCP server expose?
AI Model Radar exposes 5 tools: trending_models, find_fit, gpu_prices, list_hardware, weekly_pick. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 488 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.
Does the AI Model Radar MCP server require authentication?
No. We connected to AI Model Radar without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.
Is the AI Model Radar MCP server still maintained?
AI Model Radar is marked deprecated in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 20 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
