ToolRoute MCP

ToolRoute allows AI agents to register a list of tools or a remote MCP server once, then sends a task to receive the 3-12 most relevant tools for that prompt using deterministic keyword ranking without LLMs. This helps agents manage context windows by selecting only necessary tools from a large registry.

Endpoint and access

No sign-in to connect and list tools. Individual tools may still need a vendor account, credentials, or permissions; check the documented prerequisites.

Server-provided instructions

Untrusted server output shown for inspection. It is not Koskamo guidance and is excluded from knowledge search.

ToolRoute narrows a large tool list to the few tools a task needs. Call register_tools once with your tools (or a remote MCP URL) to get a set_id, then route_tools with set_id + the task for each turn and inject only the returned definitions. BM25 keyword ranking, no LLM. Free: 200 route_tools calls per IP per day; register_tools is free.

Tools

register_tools — Register a tool set (ToolRoute)

Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.

Open-world

Register a tool list once and get a set_id for route_tools. Pass "tools" (array in MCP, OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini or Bedrock form, max 500) or "url" (public remote MCP server; its tools are listed, never called). Same tools always get the same set_id; sets are kept 90 days after last use. Free.

route_tools — Route a task to the right tools (ToolRoute)

Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.

Advertised read-only

Which of my tools does this task need? Send "set_id" (from register_tools) or "tools", plus "query" (the task). Returns a ranked shortlist (adaptive 3-12 tools, or "k"), confidence (high/medium/low/none), matched terms, token savings and the definitions ready to inject ("format": mcp, openai, anthropic, gemini or names). BM25 keyword ranking, no LLM. Free: 200 calls/day per IP, then $0.001 per call via x402 or credits.

Connect from your client

Each snippet registers the same endpoint; pick the client you use.

This server is operated by the named third party. Listing and endpoint checks are not an endorsement or a security audit. Review the operator's permissions, terms, and data handling before connecting. How listings are checked and corrected.

Claude Code

Run this once in a terminal. It registers the remote server. Use --scope project to write .mcp.json for the repo.

Claude Code configuration

claude mcp add --transport http toolroute-mcp https://api.youraitools.co/toolroute/mcp

Codex

Run this once. Codex stores MCP servers in ~/.codex/config.toml (or .codex/config.toml in a trusted project).

Codex configuration

codex mcp add toolroute-mcp --url https://api.youraitools.co/toolroute/mcp

Cursor

Merge this server into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, then enable toolroute-mcp in your MCP settings.

Cursor configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "toolroute-mcp": {
      "url": "https://api.youraitools.co/toolroute/mcp"
