npm version MCP Registry Glama MCP License: MIT

• Website: https://routara.ai
• API: https://api.routara.ai/v1
• Get API key: https://routara.ai/#auth ($1 promo credit on signup)

Install

npx -y routara-mcp

Or add globally: npm install -g routara-mcp

Tools

Quick start

1. Create an API key at routara.ai → Auth (sk-or-v1-...).
2. Add to your MCP client:

Cursor

Settings → MCP → Add server, or edit ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "routara": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "routara-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "ROUTARA_API_KEY": "sk-or-v1-YOUR_KEY_HERE"
      }
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop

%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows) or ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "routara": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "routara-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "ROUTARA_API_KEY": "sk-or-v1-YOUR_KEY_HERE"
      }
    }
  }
}

Health check (Glama / CI)

The server starts without ROUTARA_API_KEY so registries can run MCP handshake (initialize + tools/list). API key is required only when invoking tools.

npm ci && npm run build && npm test
# Optional live probe (needs real key):
ROUTARA_API_KEY=sk-or-v1-... npm run test:live

After pushing to GitHub, re-run Claim ownership on Glama once to refresh the listing index.

Troubleshooting

Development

npm install
npm run build
ROUTARA_API_KEY=sk-or-v1-... npm run test:live
npm test

Billing notes

• One API key works for text, image, and video — switch model and tool, not the key.
• Image/video require cash wallet balance (promo credits cannot be used for media).
• Chat uses standard per-token billing with Smart Route™ failover across upstream pools.
