MCP tools · 11 exposed · ~2,325 tokens

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 →

Tool Tokens
compare_models ~225

Compare 2 to 6 named models for a kind of work: rating, prices, cost per task (or how fast each uses a Claude or ChatGPT plan), the pick, and for each model the share of answer tokens at which it would beat the pick. Use when the user already has candidate models in mind. Not for finding candidates (find_models), for reading a prompt to guess the work (suggest_for_project), or for a monthly budget (estimate_cost).

NameTypeReqDescription
answer_tokens––Answer tokens per model when they differ, by the names given
input_tokensinteger–Prompt tokens per task
modelsarrayyes2 to 6 model names, for example claude-opus-5.5, gpt-6.1-sol
output_tokensinteger–Answer tokens per task, including hidden thinking
paystring–api: dollars; claude or chatgpt: how fast each uses that plan
taskstring–The kind of work, as Arena rates it

Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

No examples provided.

estimate_cost ~186

Price a workload on 1 to 10 models at each one's cheapest listing: dollars per call, per day and per 30 days, and with cache tokens the saving the cache makes. Use when the question is a budget or a bill: token counts and calls a day are known. Not for deciding which model is better (compare_models) or for pricing past usage from an export (price_my_usage).

NameTypeReqDescription
cache_write_tokensinteger–How many of the prompt tokens are written to the cache
cached_tokensinteger–How many of the prompt tokens are read from the cache
calls_per_daynumber–Calls per day
input_tokensintegeryesPrompt tokens per call
modelsarrayyes1 to 10 model names
output_tokensintegeryesAnswer tokens per call, including hidden thinking

Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

No examples provided.

estimate_time ~194

Estimate how long one call and a whole job take, as a usual time and a slow day, from the user's own timed runs of that model called that way (kept by log_run). Use when the question is time, not money, and some runs have been logged; it says so when none have. Not for cost (estimate_cost) or for a job you have a promptfoo sample of (forecast_job gives time and cost together).

NameTypeReqDescription
callsinteger–How many calls the job makes
concurrencyinteger–Calls running at once
input_tokensintegeryesPrompt tokens per call
modelstringyesA model name, as the catalogue or Ollama names it
output_tokensintegeryesAnswer tokens per call, including hidden thinking
thinkingboolean–Thinking turned on
waystring–How the model is called

Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

No examples provided.

find_models ~227

List the highest rated models for a kind of work within price, prompt size, ability and maker limits, each at its cheapest listing with its rating; or, with `name`, look one model up and list every host that offers it. Use when browsing or filtering the catalogue, or to find a model's exact name. Not for choosing between named models (compare_models), for a prompt you have in hand (suggest_for_project), or for a budget (estimate_cost).

NameTypeReqDescription
limitinteger–How many models to list (up to 200 for the whole catalogue)
maker––Only this maker, for example anthropic or openai
max_output_price––Highest answer price, dollars per 1M tokens
min_context––Smallest prompt size the model must take, in tokens
name––Look up one model by name instead of browsing: all its listings
needsarray–What the model must be able to do
taskstring–The kind of work, as Arena rates it

Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

No examples provided.

forecast_job ~250

Estimate a whole job's time, cost and accuracy from a promptfoo run of a sample of it: for each model in the sample, the time as a usual time and a slow day, the cost at its cheapest listing next to the listing the sample used, the 90-day chance of a price change, how often it was right (95% range) and the break-even against the pick. Use when a promptfoo results file of a sample exists and the whole job's size is known. Not for a job with no sample (estimate_cost for money, estimate_time for time).

NameTypeReqDescription
concurrency––Calls running at once in the whole job (default: as the sample ran)
itemsintegeryesHow many tests the whole job has
promptfoo_resultsstringyesPath of a promptfoo results file from a sample of the job (promptfoo eval --filter-sample 20 -o sample.json)
thinkingboolean–Thinking turned on
way––How the models are called (default: read from each provider)
wrong_answer_cost––Dollars a wrong answer costs you to catch and fix; the pick then counts it

Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

No examples provided.

local_or_cloud ~329

Compare running an open model on a computer you buy with paying a cloud model per call: the cost a month each way, the month the computer pays for itself, and whether it keeps up with the load. Use when the question is whether to buy hardware for a local model. Needs timed runs of the local model (log_run) and the computer's price; electricity comes from EIA or the user's own rate. Not for cloud-only comparisons (compare_models or estimate_cost).

NameTypeReqDescription
cached_tokensinteger–Prompt tokens read from the cloud model's cache
calls_per_monthnumberyesCalls a month
cloud_modelsarrayyes1 to 5 cloud models to compare with
electricity_price––Your electricity price, dollars per kWh (default: EIA's average for homes)
hardware_pricenumberyesWhat the computer costs you, in dollars
input_tokensintegeryesPrompt tokens per call
local_modelstringyesThe open model you would run at home, as Ollama names it, for example llama3.1:8b
local_waystring–How the local model is called
monthsinteger–How many months to compare over
output_tokensintegeryesAnswer tokens per call, including hidden thinking
state––A US state, for EIA's average there, for example Texas
thinkingboolean–Thinking turned on for the local model
watts––Power the computer draws while it answers, in watts

Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

No examples provided.

log_run ~215

Record a timed run (model, tokens, seconds, how it was called), or every result of a promptfoo results file, in a file on this computer so estimate_time can learn from it. Use right after a call or a promptfoo run whose time is known. Not a query: it stores and returns what it stored. Nothing is sent anywhere.

NameTypeReqDescription
input_tokens––Prompt tokens of the call
model––The model that ran
output_tokens––Answer tokens of the call, hidden thinking included
promptfoo_results––Path of a promptfoo results file (promptfoo eval -o results.json): every result becomes a run
seconds––How long the call took
task––The kind of work, if known
thinkingboolean–Thinking was on (a promptfoo result that counts thinking tokens is marked on by itself)
way––How the model was called (default api; for a promptfoo file, read from each provider)

Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

No examples provided.

not_yet_priced ~96

List the models Arena has rated that LiteLLM's catalogue does not price yet, with how soon the catalogue usually prices a maker's models after Arena first shows them. Use when a brand-new model is missing from the other tools' answers, or to ask what is coming. Not for models that already have a price (find_models).

NameTypeReqDescription
maker––Only this maker, for example meta or ibm

Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

No examples provided.

price_history ~177

Show one model's price history: every price and retirement date change since 2023 on every host, each with the LiteLLM change behind it, the chance of a price change, retirement or removal in the next 90 days and year, and with `date`, the prices on that day. Use when the question is about one model over time, a past price, or how likely a price is to move. Not for today's cheapest price of several models (find_models or estimate_cost).

NameTypeReqDescription
date––A day as YYYY-MM-DD: each listing's prices that day and the change that set them
modelstringyesA model name, for example claude-opus-5.5, or one listing such as bedrock/anthropic.claude-opus-5-5

Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

No examples provided.

price_my_usage ~271

Price the user's own past coding agent usage, from a ccusage or codeburn export, on every rated model: each session at the price of its day, the models that keep the rating and cost less, a 95% range for the cost per session, and whether two models differ for real or the data cannot tell. Use when a usage export (or a list of token mixes) exists and the question is what the same work would have cost elsewhere. Not for a future workload (estimate_cost) or for a prompt (suggest_for_project). Reads token counts, names and dates only; nothing leaves the computer.

NameTypeReqDescription
compare––Two models to test against each other on the same sessions
export––Path of a token export on this computer: `ccusage daily --json > f.json`, `ccusage session --json > f.json`, or `codeburn export -f json -o f.json`
limitinteger–How many models to list in every_model (the cheapest first)
mix––Instead of a file: token mixes as {model, date, input, output, cache_read, cache_write, session?}
task––The kind of work the sessions were (default: codeburn's categories, else coding)

Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

No examples provided.

suggest_for_project ~155

Suggest a model and effort level for a prompt or a described project: it guesses the kind of work and names the best value (the cheapest model the votes cannot tell apart from the top), the top rated and the cheapest rated, each with its cost per task. Use when the user asks "which model should I use for this" and the work itself is in hand. Not for named candidates (compare_models) or for browsing by limits (find_models).

NameTypeReqDescription
answerstring–Typical answer length
paystring–api: dollars; claude or chatgpt: compare within that plan
promptstringyesThe project's starting prompt, or a description of the work

Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

No examples provided.
