What is the Superbased MCP server?

Superbased MCP server is a hosted integration for AI assistants that speak the Model Context Protocol. Claude Code cost tracking, Cursor token usage, Codex spend — AI coding agent observability across 26 adapters, proxy-accurate token counts and cost.

What you get

If SuperBased catches something useful in your next bill, a star helps other people looking for the same thing find it.

Four headline KPI tiles (sessions, API turns, token rows, stale re-reads — each filterable by the global Window / Tool / Project chips), cost-over-time stacked area split by billable token bucket, actions-over-time stacked by tool, top models by token volume, top tools by action count.

Setting it up

Being a remote server, there is no local install. You register the endpoint with your client, authorise it once, and the tools appear.

Configuration and credentials

You will need 2 environment variables: ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL, OPENAI_BASE_URL. The server will not start without them, which is usually why the tools fail to appear on a first run. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than in a file you might commit.

Before you rely on it

  • Your data travels to the provider's service, so the usual questions apply about what you send and what they retain.
  • Missing credentials fail quietly in some clients — if no tools show up, check the environment block first.
  • MCP clients confirm each tool call by default. Leave that on until you have watched what the superbased mcp server does with a few real requests.

Choosing this one

This sits in the monitoring and observability group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up.

This entry was verified against Superbased's own documentation before publication; SyncDev keeps the directory reviewed rather than auto-generated.

How to install the Superbased MCP server
