Connect in one step
Point any MCP client at one endpoint with one API key. 19 tools, credit-metered, no provider keys required.
https://almcp.vercel.app/api/mcpAuthorization: Bearer sk_live_…Let an agent set it up
Copy this and paste it to a coding agent (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf…). Replace the key, and it'll connect the gateway for you.
Connect me to the Agent Tool Gateway MCP server.
- Endpoint: https://almcp.vercel.app/api/mcp
- Transport: Streamable HTTP
- Auth header: "Authorization: Bearer sk_live_YOUR_KEY" (replace with my key)
Add it to whatever MCP client I'm using (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Desktop, etc.) under the server name "agent-gateway". For Claude Code, run:
claude mcp add --transport http -s user agent-gateway https://almcp.vercel.app/api/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer sk_live_YOUR_KEY"
For config-file clients, add an httpUrl/url entry pointing at the endpoint with that Authorization header. Then verify the connection lists the available tools.Claude Code — paste this in your terminal:
claude mcp add --transport http -s user agent-gateway https://almcp.vercel.app/api/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer sk_live_YOUR_KEY"Replace sk_live_YOUR_KEY with a key from the API Keys page. Installs at user scope so it's available in every project.
Other clients
Run in your terminal:
claude mcp add --transport http -s user agent-gateway https://almcp.vercel.app/api/mcp \
--header "Authorization: Bearer sk_live_YOUR_KEY"Replace sk_live_YOUR_KEY with a key from the API Keys page.
Using the Brain (recommended)
The gateway includes free planning tools — combo_brain_plan, combo_brain_next_step, combo_brain_review, combo_brain_learn. Having your agent call combo_brain_plan first picks the smallest effective tool path (fewer credits, better results) instead of guessing. Planning is free; only executed tools cost credits.
Add this to your agent's system prompt (works for OpenClaw, Hermes, Claude, Cursor, etc.):
When using the Agent Tool Gateway, call the combo_brain_plan tool FIRST with the user's request and any input (url/file_url/text/topic). It returns the smallest effective sequence of tools to run, with credit estimates. Run the recommended required steps, then optionally call combo_brain_next_step after each result and combo_brain_review at the end. Planning tools are free; only the tools you execute cost credits, so plan before you call.sk_live_ key on the API Keys page.
