Ai Model Picker

Developer REST API MCP network tool

Return the best-matching AI coding models (top 3 by default) for a project, scored on speed, accuracy, cost and context window from four answers: what you build, primary language, top priority and project complexity. Model data comes from the live FindUtils model catalog.

This page documents the HTTP endpoint POST /api/tools/ai-model-picker/execute. See the MCP reference →

This tool fetches a fixed, hard-coded public upstream — never a private host. Results depend on that upstream.
