This one needs environment variables set before it will start: ANTHROPIC_API_KEY (Anthropic API key. Optional — without it, Anthropic models are read from the public models.dev / LiteLLM catalogs instead of the live API.), OPENAI_API_KEY (OpenAI API key. Optional — falls back to the public catalogs when absent.), GOOGLE_API_KEY (Google AI Studio / Gemini API key. Optional.), OPENROUTER_API_KEY (OpenRouter key. Optional for discovery (unauthenticated requests are rate-limited), required to execute through OpenRouter.), XAI_API_KEY (xAI (Grok) API key. Optional.), TYPESAFE_API_KEY (TypeSafe System One (Jev) API key. Optional.), KOSHA_CACHE_TTL_HOURS (Override the discovery cache TTL. Defaults to 24 hours.). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Kosha Model Discovery — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Kosha Model Discovery?
Kosha Model Discovery runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the npm package @sriinnu/kosha-discovery was installed 669 times last week.
How do I connect Kosha Model Discovery?
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 runs locally, so the command pulls @sriinnu/kosha-discovery straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Kosha Model Discovery?
The npm package @sriinnu/kosha-discovery was installed 669 times in the last week. Week over week that is +1508%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Kosha Model Discovery open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript and 3 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.
