What is LLM Radar?

LLM Radar is an MCP server that gives your AI assistant current information about AI models from OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google.

The problem: AI assistants have training cutoffs. Ask about models and you get outdated recommendations, deprecated APIs, or hallucinated pricing.

The solution: Connect LLM Radar and your AI already knows what's available today:

• Fetching fresh data from provider APIs daily
• Enriching it with Claude for better descriptions
• Exposing it via MCP for any compatible client

MCP Server Setup

Install via pip

# Install
pip install llm-radar-mcp

# Or run directly
pip install llm-radar-mcp && llm-radar-mcp

Claude Desktop config (local stdio):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "llm-radar": {
      "command": "llm-radar-mcp"
    }
  }
}

Option 3: Docker

docker run -p 8000:8000 ghcr.io/ajentsor/llm-radar:latest

Then connect to http://localhost:8000/sse

Available MCP Tools

Once connected, you can use these tools:

Tool	Description
query_models	Search/filter models by provider, type, or modality support
compare_models	Side-by-side comparison of specific models
get_model	Get detailed info about a specific model by API ID
list_model_ids	List all available model IDs for a provider

Example Queries

"What models support vision input?"
→ Uses query_models with input_modality="image"

"Compare GPT-4o, Claude Sonnet, and Gemini 2.5 Pro"
→ Uses compare_models with those model IDs

"List all OpenAI model IDs"
→ Uses list_model_ids with provider="openai"

---

Available Resources

The MCP server also exposes resources you can read directly:

Resource URI	Description
llm-radar://models/all	Complete JSON data
llm-radar://models/openai	OpenAI models only
llm-radar://models/anthropic	Anthropic models only
llm-radar://models/google	Google models only
llm-radar://highlights	Curated recommendations
