Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check ToolRouter 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 47

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

brain
brain_add
Create a new brain page. Knowledge you add here will be available to all future tool calls. Optional wing/room/hall organise the page in the MemPalace hierarchy for sharper retrieval.
brain_admin
Brain admin operations. Pass action: "lint" | "link" | "promote" | "rebuild_index" | "team_sleep". team_sleep enables/disables/runs the nightly team consolidation cycle — pass sub_action "enable" (with optional timezone), "disable", "status", or "run_now". Team admin role required for team_sleep actions.
brain_delete
Archive a brain page. It will no longer appear in searches or tool consultations.
brain_expand
Retrieve the verbatim source text (a "drawer") linked from a brain page. Use this when a summary lacks specifics you need — drawers contain the original tool output, redacted for credentials. Returns 404 if the page has no linked drawer (not all pages do — drawers are a Step 4 feature for allowlisted tools only).
brain_lint
Run maintenance checks on your brain: find stale pages, orphaned knowledge, and other issues.
brain_query
Search your knowledge brain for relevant information. Returns pages ranked by relevance. Optional wing/hall narrow the search to a slice of the brain (e.g. wing="engineering", hall="preference").
brain_settings
View and toggle your brain settings. Currently supports: drawers_enabled (store raw tool output alongside summaries for richer recall).
brain_status
View brain page counts and recent pages for your personal and team brain.
brain_update
Edit an existing brain page's content or metadata. wing/room/hall can be patched to re-file a page. scope can be changed to move a page between your personal and team brain — useful when an auto-ingested page landed in the wrong place. Moving a page to team scope requires team admin role.
brain_wings
List the wings of your brain — the top-level areas your knowledge is organised under (e.g. "engineering", "family"). For each wing returns the rooms and halls inside, page count, and last-updated time. Use this to discover the right wing/hall to pass to brain_query.
credential
credential_default
Set the default value for a multi-value credential.
credential_delete
Remove a saved credential. If label is provided, removes only that specific entry. If no label, removes ALL entries for that credential name.
credential_guide
Get setup instructions for a specific credential.
credential_list
List saved credentials (summary) or detail on one. Pass name for detail view. Pass show_available: true to include the full credential catalog.
credential_save
Save a credential (BYOK provider API key). Saved keys persist across sessions and are used automatically.
account
account_list
List all billing contexts (personal + teams) or get detail on one. No slug → summary list. With slug → full detail including team members, role, subscription status, and pointers to the team's connectors, credentials, keys, and files.
account_preferences
Read or write billing preferences (auto-reload, budget cap, default context). Pass action: "get" to read, action: "set" with fields to write.
account_setup
Initialize or re-check your account, provision it when needed, and return your user ID and plan. CALL THIS FIRST when the user asks to set up ToolRouter, connect their account, check their account status, or get started.
account_switch
Set the active billing context. Accepts a slug (e.g. "personal", "team:nd7fx…") or team ID.
connector
connector_add
Connect a new OAuth account or MCP server. For OAuth: pass type: "oauth", kind: "slack". For MCP catalog: pass catalog_slug. For custom MCP: pass url + auth_type.
connector_list
List connected accounts and MCP servers (summary) or detail on one connector. Pass slug for detail including every tool the connector exposes. Optional type: "oauth" | "mcp" filter. Pass include_available: true to also see available catalog MCPs you can connect.
connector_permissions
View or set permissions for tools on a connected MCP server — which tools are allowed, rate limits, budget caps, argument restrictions. Pass the connector slug (from connector_list) and action: "list" to see current rules, or action: "set" with tool_name + rules to update one. Team scope requires admin role.
connector_remove
Disconnect a connector. Pass slug.
file
file_delete
Delete a file. Cannot be undone. For team files: requires owner/admin role.
file_list
List or search files. Optional query triggers semantic search. Supports section, tags, plan_status, limit, cursor filters.
file_read
Read a file's full content. Text files return content inline. Binary files (images, video) return a download URL.
file_write
Create or update a file. Pass mode: "create" | "update". Binary uploads: call with binary: true to get an upload_url, then PUT bytes, then call with mode: "finalize".
feedback
feedback_debug
Report a ToolRouter platform bug that blocks you from completing the user's task. Use this when you suspect the issue is on our side — a tool crashed, returned malformed data, timed out unexpectedly, or behaved inconsistently. Include the relevant ToolRouter errors, call IDs, non-sensitive input shape, retries, and expected behavior. Do not include chat history, unrelated conversation text, uploaded file contents, personal data, API keys, or secrets. Reports are stored and reviewed within hours. Skip this for expected errors like invalid input, missing credentials, insufficient balance, rate limits, or genuine "not found" results — those aren't bugs. Limit: 5 reports per hour.
feedback_request_tool
Ask ToolRouter to build a tool that does not exist yet. Use this when discover returned nothing useful for what the user needs. Describe the capability in plain terms — do not include personal data, API keys, or secrets. Requests go straight to the team. Limit: 5 per hour.
feedback_review
Submit a review or star rating.
job
job_cancel
Cancel a running job.
job_get
Get job status and result. Returns status: running | completed | failed and result when terminal. Keep polling until you get a terminal status.
job_list
List your active and recent jobs. Optional status filter.
key
key_create
Create a new API key. Returns the secret once — save it immediately.
key_delete
Revoke an API key. Refuses to revoke the currently-authenticating key.
key_list
List API keys (summary) or get detail on one key. Pass key_id for detail view.
credits
credits_balance
Current balance, plan tier, rate limits, and any negative-balance warnings for the active context.
credits_usage
Usage summary or history. Pass scope: "me" | "team" and detail: "tool" | "skill". Sorted by cost with _others rollup.
discover
discover
Find the right ToolRouter tool for your task. Describe what you need in plain language. Examples: "analyze a website", "research competitors", "find prospect companies", "check DNS records". Exact tool name (e.g. "seo") returns full schemas and examples. Flow: discover → pick a tool + skill from results → call use_tool(tool, skill, input). Every discover response also includes a top-level `connectors` array listing SaaS accounts the user has already connected (LinkedIn, Google, Notion, etc.). Use that to pick the right tool and account without asking — e.g. if `connectors` shows LinkedIn, the linkedin-post tool is ready to use. Categories: data, media, search, marketing, development, communication, analytics, productivity, ai, finance, security, infrastructure
invoice
invoice_list
List invoices for the active billing context.
outfit
outfit_list
List your outfits.
persona
persona_list
List your personas.
product
product_list
List your products.
scene
scene_list
List your scenes.
subscription
subscription_manage
Get a Stripe management URL (portal, upgrade, or cancel). Also covers billing portal — returns the URL for the user to open.
top
top_up_credits
Add credits to your account. Returns a Stripe checkout URL — share it with the user to complete payment. Minimum $1.
use
use_tool
Call a ToolRouter catalogue tool. Use discover first to find tools — then pass the tool name and skill here. IMPORTANT: "discover", "credits_balance", and other built-in tools are NOT catalogue tools — call them directly, never through use_tool. Long-running tools return a job_id — poll with job_get. If a skill needs an image_url or file URL and you have a local file or base64 image, use file_write first to get a hosted URL, then pass that URL to the skill. BRAIN: Some tools require you to consult brain_query first. If use_tool returns an error about brain_context, call brain_query with a relevant query, then pass the result text as brain_context in your use_tool input.

ToolRouter — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can ToolRouter do?
It exposes 47 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: account_list, account_preferences, account_setup, account_switch, brain_add, brain_admin and 41 more. 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 →
What is ToolRouter mostly used for?
Its tools cluster around brain, credential and account. That is what this server is built to work with — the grouping comes from the actual tool names, not from a category we assigned.
Is ToolRouter working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 93 of 93 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 337 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect ToolRouter?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does ToolRouter need an API key?
No. ToolRouter completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 47 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is ToolRouter?
It answers our handshake in 337 ms on average, which is faster than 49% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
Is ToolRouter open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript and 0 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
