AI Admin API MCP Server

Read-only MCP server for querying AI provider administration APIs and returning normalized usage, cost, and dashboard data.

Status

Built-in providers:

• OpenAI Admin API usage, costs, projects, users, and project API keys.

• Anthropic Admin API organization metadata, workspaces, API keys, messages usage, and costs.

• ElevenLabs workspace credit usage analytics, API request analytics, audit logs, user/subscription metadata, service accounts, and service-account API keys.

• OpenRouter management-key analytics, recent activity, credits, API key metadata, generation metadata, and model pricing metadata.

Planned providers:

• Google Cloud Billing export through BigQuery. This provider is not implemented yet. When it ships, release notes must state that direct BigQuery billing export queries can incur Google Cloud query costs.

All MCP tools are read-only. The server does not expose provider mutation tools.

External provider plugins can be loaded at startup with AI_ADMIN_PROVIDER_PLUGINS. See Provider Plugins.

Quick Start

Run the published package with npx:

OPENAI_ADMIN_KEY=sk-admin-... \
ANTHROPIC_ADMIN_KEY=sk-ant-admin-... \
ELEVENLABS_API_KEY=xi-... \
OPENROUTER_MANAGEMENT_KEY=or-mgmt-... \
npx @amaretto-software-labs/ai-admin-api-mcp --stdio

Pin a specific published version:

npx @amaretto-software-labs/ai-admin-api-mcp@0.0.1 --stdio

For local repo development:

pnpm install
pnpm check
pnpm test

Run over STDIO:

OPENAI_ADMIN_KEY=sk-admin-... \
ANTHROPIC_ADMIN_KEY=sk-ant-admin-... \
ELEVENLABS_API_KEY=xi-... \
OPENROUTER_MANAGEMENT_KEY=or-mgmt-... \
pnpm start:stdio

Run over Streamable HTTP:

OPENAI_ADMIN_KEY=sk-admin-... \
ANTHROPIC_ADMIN_KEY=sk-ant-admin-... \
ELEVENLABS_API_KEY=xi-... \
OPENROUTER_MANAGEMENT_KEY=or-mgmt-... \
MCP_HTTP_AUTH_TOKEN=local-proxy-token \
pnpm start:http

HTTP listens on http://127.0.0.1:8787/mcp. Pass --unsafe-local-http only for local development where another process already protects the endpoint.

Run the gateway-compatible local HTTPS endpoint with a local development certificate:

OPENAI_ADMIN_KEY=sk-admin-... \
ANTHROPIC_ADMIN_KEY=sk-ant-admin-... \
ELEVENLABS_API_KEY=xi-... \
OPENROUTER_MANAGEMENT_KEY=or-mgmt-... \
MCP_HTTP_AUTH_TOKEN=local-proxy-token \
MCP_HTTPS_CERT_PATH=/path/to/localhost.pem \
MCP_HTTPS_KEY_PATH=/path/to/localhost.key \
pnpm start:https

HTTPS listens on https://127.0.0.1:8787/mcp.

Use the published package for Streamable HTTP or HTTPS by passing the same flags to npx:

MCP_HTTP_AUTH_TOKEN=local-proxy-token \
OPENAI_ADMIN_KEY=sk-admin-... \
ANTHROPIC_ADMIN_KEY=sk-ant-admin-... \
ELEVENLABS_API_KEY=xi-... \
OPENROUTER_MANAGEMENT_KEY=or-mgmt-... \
npx @amaretto-software-labs/ai-admin-api-mcp --http --port 8787

MCP_HTTP_AUTH_TOKEN=local-proxy-token \
OPENAI_ADMIN_KEY=sk-admin-... \
ANTHROPIC_ADMIN_KEY=sk-ant-admin-... \
ELEVENLABS_API_KEY=xi-... \
OPENROUTER_MANAGEMENT_KEY=or-mgmt-... \
MCP_HTTPS_CERT_PATH=/path/to/localhost.pem \
MCP_HTTPS_KEY_PATH=/path/to/localhost.key \
npx @amaretto-software-labs/ai-admin-api-mcp --https --port 8787

Configuration

Credentials

Provider credentials must come from environment variables or an external host secret integration. They must never be sent as normal MCP tool arguments.

In v0.1 static mode, these credential refs are accepted:

• credential:openai:static

• credential:anthropic:static

• credential:elevenlabs:static

• credential:openrouter:static

• credential:openrouter:management

• credential:openrouter:api

Omit credential_ref to use the static provider credential. Unknown refs are rejected.

Pass-through and broker modes are deployment contracts for an operator-supplied gateway. The gateway, credential store, tenant policy, audit layer, and envelope signing are outside this runtime build. See pass-through gateway docs.

Tools

Common tools:

• ai_admin_list_providers

Provider Notes

• OpenAI usage endpoints have endpoint-specific filters, groupings, and metrics. Unsupported parameters are rejected before any provider call.

• Anthropic costs are reported in minor units and normalized to USD major units. Priority Tier costs are not included in the Anthropic cost endpoint.

• Anthropic speed usage filters/groupings require ANTHROPIC_BETA=fast-mode-2026-02-01.

• ElevenLabs workspace analytics reports credit usage. The provider exposes credit_count; provider-reported monetary cost is not available from the implemented endpoint.

• OpenRouter aggregate reporting requires OPENROUTER_MANAGEMENT_KEY. Analytics metadata/query endpoints are beta, activity is limited to the provider-supported completed UTC-day window, and generation metadata is a point lookup. OpenRouter spend values are normalized as openrouter_credit until USD semantics are confirmed.

• Google Cloud Billing support is planned only. BigQuery queries against billing export tables can be cost-bearing.

Docker

docker build -t ai-admin-api-mcp .
docker run --rm -p 8787:8787 \
  -e OPENAI_ADMIN_KEY \
  -e ANTHROPIC_ADMIN_KEY \
  -e ELEVENLABS_API_KEY \
  -e OPENROUTER_MANAGEMENT_KEY \
  -e MCP_HTTP_AUTH_TOKEN \
  ai-admin-api-mcp

The Docker image starts Streamable HTTP mode by default.

Development

pnpm check
pnpm test
pnpm test:live:openai
pnpm test:live:anthropic
pnpm test:live:openrouter

Live tests are skipped unless provider credentials are present.

Release

The Build and Publish GitHub Actions workflow runs pnpm check and pnpm test on pushes and pull requests targeting main.

Releases are manual through Actions -> Build and Publish -> Run workflow on main.

Inputs:

• package-version: optional SemVer override. If omitted, the workflow uses the committed package version.

• npm-tag: npm dist-tag to use when publishing. Defaults to latest.

• publish-to-npm: set to true to publish @amaretto-software-labs/ai-admin-api-mcp to npm after the release is created.

The release job aligns the @amaretto-software-labs/ai-admin-api-mcp package version in the runner, rebuilds and tests the package, packs one npm tarball, pushes a v<package-version> git tag, creates a GitHub Release with the packed artifact, and optionally publishes @amaretto-software-labs/ai-admin-api-mcp to npm using trusted publishing. Configure npm trusted publishing for this repository and package before enabling publish-to-npm.
