One SSE endpoint. Six top Chinese LLMs. Zero local setup.
Model Context Protocol is an open standard developed by Anthropic that lets AI assistants like Claude securely connect to external data sources and tools. Think of it as a "USB-C for AI" — one standard interface that works across any client and any server.
With MCP, your AI agent can:
Chinese LLMs have quietly become some of the most capable and cost-effective models available:
Combined, these models offer 40% lower pricing than OpenRouter and 80% lower than direct OpenAI — with comparable or better performance on many benchmarks.

Look for the hammer icon in the chat input — that's your MCP tools. Ask Claude to "list available tools" to verify the connection.
x-api-key header, Claude will use a shared demo key with limited quota. For production use, always use your own key.
Cursor supports MCP via its .cursor/mcp.json configuration:
{
"mcpServers": {
"tokenease": {
"url": "https://tokenease.io/mcp/sse",
"headers": {
"x-api-key": "YOUR_TOKENEASE_API_KEY"
}
}
}
}
Restart Cursor and open the Composer (Cmd+I). The TokenEase tools will appear in the tool palette.

No. TokenEase MCP Server is hosted at https://tokenease.io/mcp/sse. Just add the URL to your MCP client configuration.
Yes. Your API key is sent in the request headers and never exposed in logs or shared with other users. All connections use HTTPS.
Any client that supports SSE transport works: Claude Desktop, Cursor, Continue.dev, Cline, and any custom implementation.
You will receive a clear error message. Upgrade to a paid plan or wait for the next billing cycle. No surprise charges.
The current SSE transport supports real-time tool discovery. Chat completion streaming is available via the standard /v1/chat/completions API endpoint.
