Connect from your MCP client

One-click install

Add this server to your editor with a single click. Fill in any required credentials afterward.

Install in Cursor Install in VS Code

Claude Code

Run this once and Claude Code registers the server for you:

claude mcp add routara -- npx -y routara-mcp

Claude Desktop

Add this to claude_desktop_config.json under Settings → Developer → Edit Config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "routara": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "routara-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "ROUTARA_API_KEY": "<ROUTARA_API_KEY>",
        "ROUTARA_API_BASE": "<ROUTARA_API_BASE>"
      }
    }
  }
}

Cursor

Add this to .cursor/mcp.json in your project (or ~/.cursor/mcp.json for all projects):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "routara": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "routara-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "ROUTARA_API_KEY": "<ROUTARA_API_KEY>",
        "ROUTARA_API_BASE": "<ROUTARA_API_BASE>"
      }
    }
  }
}

Cline and other MCP clients

Most MCP clients accept the standard mcpServers JSON block:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "routara": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "routara-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "ROUTARA_API_KEY": "<ROUTARA_API_KEY>",
        "ROUTARA_API_BASE": "<ROUTARA_API_BASE>"
      }
    }
  }
}

Codex CLI

codex mcp add routara --env ROUTARA_API_KEY=<ROUTARA_API_KEY> --env ROUTARA_API_BASE=<ROUTARA_API_BASE> -- npx -y routara-mcp

# or add to ~/.codex/config.toml:
[mcp_servers.routara]
command = "npx"
args = ["-y", "routara-mcp"]
[mcp_servers.routara.env]
ROUTARA_API_KEY = "<ROUTARA_API_KEY>"
ROUTARA_API_BASE = "<ROUTARA_API_BASE>"

OpenClaw

OpenClaw reads MCP servers from the mcp.servers section of ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json (managed via `openclaw mcp add` or the mcporter skill):

{
  "mcp": {
    "servers": {
      "routara": {
        "command": "npx",
        "args": [
          "-y",
          "routara-mcp"
        ],
        "env": {
          "ROUTARA_API_KEY": "<ROUTARA_API_KEY>",
          "ROUTARA_API_BASE": "<ROUTARA_API_BASE>"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Replace the <PLACEHOLDER> values with your own credentials — see the configuration table below.

Routara MCP Server

![npm version](https://www.npmjs.com/package/routara-mcp) ![MCP Registry](https://registry.modelcontextprotocol.io/v0.1/servers?search=io.github.36412749-collab%2Froutara-mcp) ![License: MIT](LICENSE)

Official Model Context Protocol server for Routara. Use Routara chat, image, and video models from Cursor, Claude Desktop, Codex, Windsurf, VS Code, and other MCP clients.

Website and setup guide: https://routara.ai/mcp
OpenAI-compatible API: https://api.routara.ai/v1
Create an API key: https://routara.ai/#auth

npx -y routara-mcp

Or install the one-click routara-mcp.mcpb bundle from the latest GitHub release.

Tools

| Tool | Description | |---|---| | routara_list_models | Search and paginate the live model catalog | | routara_chat | Single-turn or multi-turn chat, including tool calls | | routara_generate_image | Text-to-image and reference-image generation | | routara_generate_video | Text-to-video and image-to-video submission | | routara_get_video_status | Poll an asynchronous video task |

MCP client configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "routara": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "routara-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "ROUTARA_API_KEY": "sk-or-v1-YOUR_KEY_HERE"
      }
    }
  }
}

OpenAI Codex

[mcp_servers.routara]
command = "npx"
args = ["-y", "routara-mcp"]
enabled = true

[mcp_servers.routara.env]
ROUTARA_API_KEY = "sk-or-v1-YOUR_KEY_HERE"

Environment

| Variable | Required | Default | |---|---:|---| | ROUTARA_API_KEY | Yes for tool calls | None | | ROUTARA_API_BASE | No | https://api.routara.ai/v1 | | ROUTARA_API_TIMEOUT_MS | No | 30000 |

The process can start and complete the MCP handshake without an API key. A key is resolved only when a Routara tool is invoked, which lets directories validate the server safely.

Reliability and compatibility

Requests time out instead of hanging indefinitely.
Transient network errors, HTTP 429, and HTTP 5xx responses are retried with bounded backoff.
API errors include the upstream request ID and retry delay when available.
routara_chat returns the complete OpenAI-compatible response, preserving reasoning content and tool calls.
Media parameters are forwarded only when explicitly supplied; model-specific support varies.

Development

npm ci
npm run build
npm test
npm run validate:registry
npm run build:mcpb

For a live API smoke test:

ROUTARA_API_KEY=sk-or-v1-... npm run test:live

Directory listings

Security

Do not commit API keys. If a key is exposed, revoke it in the Routara dashboard immediately. Please report security issues privately to support@routara.ai.
