πŸš€ Argon Bridge for 9Router & MCP

A Playwright Web-to-API Bridge & Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server designed to unlock Gemini 4 Argon on Google AI Pro (Jio Bundle / Gemini Advanced) accounts and seamlessly integrate it with 9Router alongside multi-provider fallbacks including Claude Opus 4.6, Claude Sonnet 4.6, Qoder, OpenCode, and GPT-OSS 120B.


πŸ’‘ Why Does This Project Exist?

On Google's Cloud Code / Antigravity OAuth API route (ag/), access to gemini-4-argon is strictly gated behind Google AI Ultra / Enterprise tiers. Users with Google AI Pro subscriptions (such as the 18-month Jio bundle) receive 404/403 errors when calling Argon via APIβ€”even though they can access Argon through the Gemini Web UI (gemini.google.com) and hold generous API quotas for partner models (Claude Opus 4.6, Claude Sonnet 4.6, and GPT-OSS 120B).

This project bridges that gap with a 3-in-1 Hybrid Architecture:

  1. Playwright Persistent Engine: Automates a persistent Chromium session using your Google AI Pro login profile to interact with Gemini 4 Argon directly via the Web UI.

  2. OpenAI-Compatible Local Proxy (Port 20129): Exposes a standard /v1/chat/completions endpoint so 9Router can register Playwright as a custom OpenAI-compatible upstream provider.

  3. Dual-Defense & Multi-Provider MCP Server: Exposes an MCP tool to your IDE (Cursor, Cline, Roo Code, Claude Desktop) that prioritizes Gemini 4 Argon (Playwright) and automatically falls back to 9Router models (Antigravity Claude, Qoder, Qwen, DeepSeek, etc.) if the browser is busy or rate-limited.

🌐 Supported Models & Providers (Including Qoder!)

Because this project connects directly to 9Router's unified OpenAI-compatible endpoint, it supports every provider and model configured in your 9Router instance:

  • Playwright Web Bridge: playwright-gemini-4-argon (via Local Port 20129)

  • Antigravity (ag/): ag/claude-opus-4-6-thinking, ag/claude-sonnet-4-6-thinking, ag/claude-sonnet-4-6, ag/gpt-oss-120b-medium

  • Qoder (qoder/): qoder/qwen3-coder-plus, qoder/claude-3-7-sonnet, or any model available under your Qoder account in 9Router

  • Other 9Router Providers: Kiro (kiro/), OpenCodeZen (opencode/), GitHub Copilot (gh/), Cursor, DeepSeek, Groq, and local Ollama models.

You can dynamically pass any model ID via the MCP tool's target_model parameter (e.g., "target_model": "qoder/qwen3-coder-plus") or customize the FALLBACK_MODELS environment variable.


πŸ› οΈ Quick Installation

# 1. Clone the repository & install dependencies
git clone https://github.com/faizalzn/argon-bridge-9router-mcp.git
cd argon-bridge-9router-mcp
npm install

# 2. Install the Playwright Chromium binary
npm run setup-browser

πŸ” Step 1: One-Time Google (Jio) Authentication

Before running the bridge in headless background mode, save your Google AI Pro login session once:

npm run login
  1. A Chromium window will open automatically and navigate to https://gemini.google.com/app.

  2. Sign in with your Google AI Pro (Jio) account.

  3. Select Argon from the model selector menu in the top-left corner.

  4. Close the browser window. Your cookies and session state are permanently saved in ~/.9router-jio-playwright-profile.


πŸ”— Step 2: Connect with 9Router Dashboard

  1. Start 9Router (9router start) and open the dashboard at http://localhost:20128.

  2. Add a new OpenAI-Compatible Provider:

    • Name: jio-playwright

    • Base URL: http://localhost:20129/v1

    • API Key: sk-local-playwright (any placeholder string)

    • Model ID: playwright-gemini-4-argon

  3. (Optional) Connect your Qoder or Antigravity accounts under the Providers tab in 9Router.

  4. Create a Smart Combo named jio-max-non-gemini with the following priority order:

    1. jio-playwright/playwright-gemini-4-argon (Tier 1: Gemini 4 Argon via Web Bridge)

    2. ag/claude-opus-4-6-thinking (Tier 2: Claude Opus via Jio Quota)

    3. ag/claude-sonnet-4-6-thinking (Tier 3: Claude Sonnet Thinking via Jio Quota)

    4. qoder/qwen3-coder-plus (Tier 4: Qoder Coding Fallback)

    5. ag/gpt-oss-120b-medium (Tier 5: GPT-OSS 120B Safety Net)


πŸ–₯️ Step 3: Add to MCP Client (Cursor / Cline / Claude Desktop)

Copy the configuration from mcp.config.example.json into your IDE's MCP settings file (claude_desktop_config.json, .cursor/mcp.json, or cline_mcp_settings.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "argon-bridge-9router": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/ABSOLUTE/PATH/TO/argon-bridge-9router-mcp/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "NINE_ROUTER_URL": "http://localhost:20128/v1",
        "NINE_ROUTER_KEY": "YOUR_9ROUTER_API_KEY",
        "JIO_COMBO_NAME": "jio-max-non-gemini",
        "FALLBACK_MODELS": "jio-max-non-gemini,ag/claude-opus-4-6-thinking,ag/claude-sonnet-4-6-thinking,qoder/qwen3-coder-plus,ag/gpt-oss-120b-medium",
        "PLAYWRIGHT_BRIDGE_PORT": "20129",
        "HEADLESS": "true"
      }
    }
  }
}

    Disambiguation5/5

    There is only one tool on the server, so there is nothing for an agent to confuse it with. Its purpose (proxying a prompt to a chosen provider/model) is stated explicitly.

    Naming Consistency4/5

    The single name uses snake_case and a clear verb ('ask_'), but it redundantly bakes in the server/bridge name and a provider ('argon_playwright_9router'), making it long and vendor-specific. With only one tool there is no cross-tool pattern to break.

    Tool Count2/5

    A router spanning many providers/models plus a Playwright web bridge is a lot of surface compressed into one opaque passthrough tool. There is no way to discover providers/models or check bridge health without invoking the single call.

    Completeness2/5

    The core 'send a prompt' operation exists, but the obvious lifecycle around it is missing: listing available providers/models/combos, checking bridge or session status, and any error/retry or cancellation path. Agents are left with a single fire-and-hope entry point.
