RigBase MCP server
Last updated:
Free, public, read-only Model Context Protocol endpoint so AI assistants (Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT, Gemini / Google Connected Apps, and others) can query 187 measured local-LLM builds and 442 tok/s results — and always link back to RigBase.
https://getrigbase.com/mcpProtocol: JSON-RPC 2.0 over HTTPS (
initialize, tools/list, tools/call, ping)Auth: none · Cost: free · Data licence: CC BY 4.0
Tools
- search_builds — filter measured builds by GPU, model, min VRAM, max price; returns tok/s, quant, engine, source credit and canonical URL.
- can_it_run — given GPU(s) + count and a model, return measured results if any; otherwise a VRAM-fit estimate (labelled as estimate). Advises against quants below Q4.
- best_gpu_for_model — fastest measured result for a model, plus tok/s per euro where a build cost or GPU street price is known.
- get_build — one build by slug, with all measured results, credit and URL.
Every tool result includes the original source credit (e.g. Mia's AI Lab, Tech2wild) and a https://getrigbase.com/… link. No auth. Read-only. No user data collected.
Example prompts
- “Using RigBase, what is the fastest measured setup for Qwen3.8 27B?”
- “Can 4× RTX 3090 run gpt-oss 120B? Check RigBase measured builds first.”
- “Search RigBase for DGX Spark builds of DeepSeek V4.1 Flash and cite the sources.”
- “Best GPU for Gemma 4 31B on RigBase, with tok/s per euro if known.”
Add it to a client
Cursor
In Cursor MCP settings, add a remote server URL:
https://getrigbase.com/mcp
Or in ~/.cursor/mcp.json / project .cursor/mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"rigbase": {
"url": "https://getrigbase.com/mcp"
}
}
}
Claude (Desktop / Claude.ai custom connectors)
Add a custom MCP connector with URL https://getrigbase.com/mcp (Streamable HTTP). No API key.
ChatGPT (Developer mode / MCP)
Where custom MCP servers are supported, use the same URL. Tools are read-only.
Gemini / Google AI Mode (Connected Apps)
Google's Connected Apps Platform accepts remote MCP servers over public HTTPS. RigBase is preparing a Connected App listing (domain verification via /.well-known/google-connected-apps needs Google Connected Console access, currently waitlisted outside the US). Meanwhile you can point Gemini Developer Mode at https://getrigbase.com/mcp.

About the data
Numbers are measured tok/s copied from public sources (benchmarks, posts, open recipes). RigBase does not invent or extrapolate measured speeds. VRAM “can it run” answers without a matching build are arithmetic estimates and are labelled as such. Always credit the original source named in the tool result and link the RigBase URL.
