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

can
can_afford_task
For agents deciding whether to start a task: given the plans you own, how much of each is used, optionally the plan you are on now, and the task size, returns verdict go | wait | switch, which plan to use, reasons and reset windows. Reuses the route_task logic. Task size is a labeled heuristic (vendors don't publish per-task usage). size: small = One file or a quick question; medium = A feature across a few files (tens of minutes); large = A long refactor or multi-hour agent run. Plan ids: claude-pro, claude-max-5x, claude-max-20x, codex-free, codex-go, codex-plus, codex-pro, cursor-free, cursor-plus, cursor-premium, cursor-super, cursor-ultra, copilot-free, copilot-pro, copilot-pro-plus, copilot-max, antigravity-individual-free, antigravity-google-ai-pro, antigravity-google-ai-ultra, windsurf-free, windsurf-pro, windsurf-max.
pick
pick_plan
Answers 4 questions and returns the cheapest fitting plan with reasons, up to 3 alternatives and source links (same logic as https://planlimits.app/picker/). interface: terminal | ide | any; budget_usd: monthly USD; usage: light | daily | heavy (usage rule is a labeled rule of thumb); who: individual | team.
plans
list_plans
All tracked AI coding tools (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini Code Assist, Antigravity, Windsurf) with every plan: price, stated usage limits, window, models, source URL and checked date. Undisclosed values say "not disclosed".
recent
get_recent_changes
Dated change log of AI coding plan and usage-limit changes, newest first, each with a vendor source.
recommend
recommend_plan
Plans priced at or under a monthly USD budget, highest price first (same logic as the PlanLimits budget picker).
route
route_task
Given the plans you own, how much of each is used, and the task type, returns which plan to use now, a fallback, when each limit resets (from vendor-stated windows), a rationale, a suggested weekly rotation, and source links. Same logic as https://planlimits.app/router/. Unknowns are labeled estimate / not published. Plan ids: claude-pro, claude-max-5x, claude-max-20x, codex-free, codex-go, codex-plus, codex-pro, cursor-free, cursor-plus, cursor-premium, cursor-super, cursor-ultra, copilot-free, copilot-pro, copilot-pro-plus, copilot-max, antigravity-individual-free, antigravity-google-ai-pro, antigravity-google-ai-ultra, windsurf-free, windsurf-pro, windsurf-max.
service
get_service_status
Live operational status and open incidents from official vendor status pages (Claude/Anthropic, OpenAI/Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Google Cloud Gemini/Vertex AI, Windsurf). Outages only: it does not detect throttling or per-account limits. provider one of: anthropic, openai, cursor, github, google, windsurf (or a tool id); omit for all.
tool
get_tool_plans
Plans and limits for one tool. tool_id one of: claude-code, openai-codex, cursor, github-copilot, gemini-cli, antigravity, windsurf.

PlanLimits — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can PlanLimits do?
It exposes 8 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: can_afford_task, get_recent_changes, get_service_status, get_tool_plans, list_plans, pick_plan and 2 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 →
Is PlanLimits working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 8 of 91 checks got a reply (8.8%), average response time 287 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
The registry lists PlanLimits as active — why does it not respond?
The official MCP registry stores what the author submitted; it does not verify that the server still runs. We check the endpoint ourselves, and this one does not answer. Catalogues that copy the registry without checking will show it as working.
How do I connect PlanLimits?
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 PlanLimits need an API key?
No. PlanLimits completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 8 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is PlanLimits?
It answers our handshake in 287 ms on average, which is faster than 58% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
