Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check HopBase every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

Available tools 6

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

balance

get_balance

Get the available balance (USD) of the account that owns the current API key, plus this key's spending-limit usage.

docs

search_docs

Search the HopBase integration docs and return the best-matching pages with URL and snippet. Use before writing integration code or when an API call fails: search model IDs, endpoint paths, parameter names or error codes/messages. Read-only; results come from the published docs and can lag a release by up to 1 hour.

key

get_key_info

Get the current API key's name, plan group, spending limit, concurrency limit, expiration time and status.

model

get_model_limits

For one model ID: whether this API key can call it (and via which platform), plus the endpoints, request parameters (required/optional, type, bounds, defaults) and limits documented for it, as verbatim docs excerpts with links. Best-effort: the linked docs pages are authoritative. Call list_models first to get exact IDs.

models

list_models

List the models the current API key can call, with the effective price (after the key's group rate and any user-specific pricing). Check this before choosing a model; call models through the protocol-compatible endpoints, not MCP.

usage

get_usage

Get request count, token count and billed cost for the current API key (last 7 days by default, up to 92 days), filterable by date range and model. Dates must be YYYY-MM-DD.

HopBase — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can HopBase do?

It exposes 6 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: get_balance, get_key_info, get_model_limits, get_usage, list_models, search_docs. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →

Is HopBase working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 90 of 90 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 532 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect HopBase?

Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.

Does HopBase need an API key?

No. HopBase completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 6 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is HopBase?

It answers our handshake in 532 ms on average, which is faster than 23% of all working MCP servers we measure. That is on the slow side — worth knowing if the tool sits inside an interactive loop. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.

Is HopBase open source?

The code is open source: it is published under the MIT licence and 0 stars on GitHub. The licence covers the code in the repository, not the hosted service at api.hop-base.com, which runs on its operator's own terms.
