agent-spawn-mcp 1.1.2

Universal MCP server for any OpenAI-compatible LLM. Supports OpenAI and Anthropic API formats.

AgentSpawnMCP

Universal MCP server for any OpenAI-compatible LLM. Supports OpenAI and Anthropic API formats, cloud providers (OpenAI, Grok, Claude, Minimax, DeepSeek) and local models (Ollama, LM Studio, Jan). Built on FastMCP with pure httpx.

Quick Start — Spawn Agents

# No install needed — run directly with uvx
uvx agent-spawn-mcp spawn \
  --name minimax \
  --url https://api.minimax.io/anthropic/v1 \
  --token your-token \
  --model MiniMax-M2.7 \
  --api-type anthropic

Or install globally:

pip install agent-spawn-mcp
agent-spawn-mcp spawn --name minimax --url https://api.minimax.io --token TOKEN --model MiniMax-M2.7

API Types

• --api-type openai (default) — OpenAI-compatible (chat/completions)
• --api-type anthropic — Anthropic API (v1/messages)

URL versioning

Pass --url pointing directly at the API root. If your base URL already contains a version segment (e.g. …/paas/v4), the client will not re-append v1/. Examples:

Provider	--url	--api-type
OpenAI	https://api.openai.com/v1	openai
Grok	https://api.x.ai/v1	openai
z.ai (primary)	https://api.z.ai/api/paas/v4	openai
z.ai (coding)	https://api.z.ai/api/coding/paas/v4	openai
z.ai Anthropic	https://api.z.ai/api/anthropic	anthropic
Anthropic	https://api.anthropic.com	anthropic
Minimax	https://api.minimax.io/anthropic/v1	anthropic

      "args": ["agent-spawn-mcp", "spawn",
               "--name", "minimax",
               "--url", "https://api.minimax.io/anthropic/v1",

               "--token", "your-zai-token",
               "--model", "glm-5.1"]
    },
    "glm-turbo-agent": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["agent-spawn-mcp", "spawn",
               "--name", "glm-turbo",
               "--url", "https://api.z.ai/api/paas/v4",

               "--model", "glm-5-turbo"]
    }
  }
}

Gotchas:

• Each entry in .mcp.json must use a unique --name — it becomes the tool name {name}_agent, and duplicates collide.
• --token on the command line is visible in ps output and some crash logs. Prefer keeping the MCP config file read-protected (chmod 600).

Tools Exposed

• {name}_agent(task, model?, system_prompt?, temperature?, max_tokens?, timeout?) — Spawn agent
• agent_info() — Get provider info

max_tokens behaviour

The client imposes no cap. Behaviour when max_tokens is omitted depends on --api-type:

• openai — the field is simply not sent; the provider falls back to its own default (usually the model's full output budget). Reasoning models like GLM-5.x can burn huge amounts on chain-of-thought, so pass an explicit limit for short tasks.

• anthropic — the Anthropic API requires the field, so when you omit it the client fills in a safe default of 16384. Override when you need more or want to cap spend:

  claude_agent(task="summarise this PR")                    # uses 16384
  claude_agent(task="exhaustive review", max_tokens=64000)  # bigger
  claude_agent(task="ping",              max_tokens=256)    # cheaper
  

  Typical values:

  Use case	max_tokens
  Short answer / ping	1024
  Summary / routine agent run	4096
  Code generation / long task	8192
  Default (if omitted)	16384
  Exhaustive analysis	32000+

  Upper bound is model-specific (Claude Sonnet 4 — 64k, Opus 4 — 32k, GLM-4.5-Air — 8k, etc.). Pass max_tokens explicitly up to that limit.

Return Format

{
    "result": "...",  # Agent response text
    "metadata": {
        "provider": "minimax",
        "model_used": "MiniMax-M2.7",
        "usage": {"prompt_tokens": 100, "completion_tokens": 500},
        "latency_ms": 2340
    }
}

Image generation support

generate_image targets the OpenAI /images/generations request shape (model / prompt / n / image_url). Providers that expose the same shape (OpenAI dall-e-3, Grok grok-imagine-image) work out of the box.

Providers with custom image APIs are not currently supported:

• z.ai (glm-image, cogview-4-250304) expects quality / size / user_id at /paas/v4/images/generations, not the OpenAI shape.
• Anthropic-compat endpoints don't expose image generation at all.

For these, use the provider's native HTTP API directly.
