Freellmpool MCP Server

freellmpool catalogs 22 LLM providers as distinct groups spanning recurring free tiers, keyless endpoints, finite trials, pin-only routes, and disabled candidates. It exposes 178 enabled chat routes and 431 cataloged chat models, and automatically pools only enabled routes you can access behind one OpenAI-compatible endpoint - as a CLI, a Python library, or a local proxy. It can start without credentials when an…

People who work with failover, free llm and gemini and want it reachable from Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Python.

01 · Install Freellmpool

before you install - you'll need

Set ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL, ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN, ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, ANTHROPIC_MODEL, ANTHROPIC_SMALL_FAST_MODEL, OPENAI_BASE_URL, OPENAI_API_KEY, GROQ_API_KEY before connecting. FREELLMPOOL_MODE is optional or environment-specific per the README.

Claude Code

claude mcp add 0xzr-freellmpool -- uvx freellmpool

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "0xzr-freellmpool": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "freellmpool"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.

Using another client? Same JSON, different key

02 · Evidence

Security posture

What to check before giving this server access to your agent - from the registry, GitHub, and our own probes. We don't score safety; we show what's verifiable.

runs as local process (stdio) - runs on your machine with your user's permissions

license MIT - declared in the repository

pypi package freellmpool - check the name against the project README before installing (PyPI has no namespace ownership)

registry namespace io.github.0xzr is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner

03 · What Freellmpool can do

Prose above is summarized from the project's README and registry record - no invented capabilities.

Limitations (from the README)

- Free-tier models are smaller than frontier models. They're good for drafting, summarizing, classification, triage, and everyday coding - not a replacement for GPT-class reasoning on hard problems. - Quality and capacity vary through the day as high-cap tiers exhaust. freellmpool's local per-day counters reset at UTC midnight; upstream providers use their own limit and reset windows. - Free tiers change without noti

How do I install Freellmpool?

Run `uvx freellmpool`. The README documents 9 environment variables (ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL, ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN, ANTHROPIC_API_KEY…) to set first. Set ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL, ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN, ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, ANTHROPIC_MODEL, ANTHROPIC_SMALL_FAST_MODEL, OPENAI_BASE_URL, OPENAI_API_KEY, GROQ_API_KEY before connecting. FREELLMPOOL_MODE is optional or environment-specific per the README. You can also paste the ready-made client config above.

Does Freellmpool run locally?

Yes - it's a stdio server: it runs on your machine (via uvx) with your user's permissions. Your data stays local unless the server itself calls external APIs.
