Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check ToolRoute 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 2

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

register_tools

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

route_tools

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.

ToolRoute — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can ToolRoute do?

It exposes 2 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: register_tools, route_tools. 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 ToolRoute working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 83 of 83 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 93 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect ToolRoute?

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 ToolRoute need an API key?

No. ToolRoute completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 2 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is ToolRoute?

It answers our handshake in 93 ms on average, which is faster than 97% of all working MCP servers we measure. That puts it in the quick quarter of the ecosystem. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
