AI Admin API MCP Server

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

Status

Implemented providers:

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

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

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.

Quick Start

pnpm install
pnpm check
pnpm test

Run over STDIO:

OPENAI_ADMIN_KEY=sk-admin-... \
ANTHROPIC_ADMIN_KEY=sk-ant-admin-... \
pnpm start:stdio

Run over Streamable HTTP:

OPENAI_ADMIN_KEY=sk-admin-... \
ANTHROPIC_ADMIN_KEY=sk-ant-admin-... \
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-... \
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.

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

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

• ai_admin_query_usage

• ai_admin_query_costs

• ai_admin_query_dashboard_bundle

OpenAI tools:

• openai_admin_query_usage

• openai_admin_query_costs

• openai_admin_list_projects

• openai_admin_list_users

• openai_admin_list_project_api_keys

• openai_admin_query_dashboard_bundle

Anthropic tools:

• anthropic_admin_get_organization

• anthropic_admin_list_workspaces

• anthropic_admin_list_api_keys

• anthropic_admin_query_messages_usage

• anthropic_admin_query_costs

• anthropic_admin_query_dashboard_bundle

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.

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

MCP Client Example

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ai-admin-api": {
      "command": "pnpm",
      "args": ["--dir", "/absolute/path/to/ai-admin-api-mcp", "start:stdio"],
      "env": {
        "OPENAI_ADMIN_KEY": "sk-admin-...",
        "ANTHROPIC_ADMIN_KEY": "sk-ant-admin-..."
      }
    }
  }
}

Docker

docker build -t ai-admin-api-mcp .
docker run --rm -p 8787:8787 \
  -e OPENAI_ADMIN_KEY \
  -e ANTHROPIC_ADMIN_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

Live tests are skipped unless provider credentials are present.

Release

CI runs pnpm check and pnpm test on pushes and pull requests targeting main.

Publishing to npm is manual through the Publish to npm GitHub Actions workflow. Configure the repository secret NPM_TOKEN with publish access to the npm packages, then run the workflow from main and choose the npm dist-tag. Use the workflow's dry-run option to validate packaging without uploading.
