About Portkey MCP Server
What you can do
Connect AI agents to the Portkey AI Gateway for enterprise-grade observability and management:
Mastra's agent abstraction provides a clean separation between LLM logic and Portkey tool infrastructure. Connect 10 tools through the Vinkius and use Mastra's built-in workflow engine to chain tool calls with conditional logic, retries, and parallel execution — deployable to any Node.js host in one command.
- Monitor logs and traces of all LLM calls passing through your gateway
- Analyze token usage, latency, and costs across models and teams
- Submit feedback (Likes/Dislikes) to improve model quality and agent performance
- Export logs for audit trails, compliance, and offline cost analysis
- Review gateway configurations including retry policies, fallbacks, and cache settings
- Manage virtual keys to track provider API key usage and limits
- Discover supported models from 1,600+ LLMs available via Portkey
- Enforce budget policies to prevent runaway AI costs per team or project
The Portkey MCP Server exposes 10 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Mastra AI in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

Portkey MCP Tools for Mastra AI (10)
These 10 tools become available when you connect Portkey to Mastra AI via MCP:
create_policy
Requires policy name, budget limit (USD or token count), and optionally the target users or virtual keys to restrict. Returns the created policy details. Use this to enforce cost controls on specific teams or projects using the gateway. Create a new budget or usage policy for AI gateway access
delete_policy
Requires the policy ID. Use this when a project ends or budget constraints are no longer needed. Remove a budget or usage policy from Portkey
export_logs
Optionally filters by date range, model, or user. Returns an export ID or download URL. Use this for audit trails, cost reporting, or offline analysis of AI usage patterns. Export AI gateway logs for external analysis or compliance reporting
get_log_details
Requires the log ID from list_logs results. Use this for deep debugging of specific AI interactions. Get detailed information about a specific AI gateway log entry
get_virtual_keys
Virtual keys map to underlying provider keys (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.) with metadata, usage limits, and policy associations. Returns key IDs, names, provider targets, current usage, and status. Use this to audit API key usage or identify keys approaching limits. List all virtual API keys managed by Portkey
list_configs
Returns config IDs, names, creation dates, and associated virtual keys. Use this to review how LLM requests are routed or to audit gateway behavior. List all gateway configurations stored in Portkey
list_logs
Returns log IDs, timestamps, model names, token usage, latency, costs, and status codes. Use this to monitor AI usage, identify expensive calls, or debug latency issues. Supports pagination via limit/offset. List recent AI gateway logs and traces from Portkey
list_models
). Returns model names, provider names, supported endpoints (chat, embeddings, etc.), and capabilities. Use this to discover which models are routable via your gateway. List all LLM models supported by the Portkey gateway
list_policies
Returns policy names, limits, current consumption, and affected users/keys. Use this to review guardrails preventing runaway AI costs. List all budget and usage policies defined in Portkey
submit_feedback
Requires the log ID, rating (LIKE, DISLIKE, or UNLIKE to remove), and optional text feedback. Use this to build RLHF datasets or monitor user satisfaction with AI outputs. Submit user feedback (Like/Dislike) for a specific AI response log
Example Prompts for Portkey in Mastra AI
Ready-to-use prompts you can give your Mastra AI agent to start working with Portkey immediately.
"Show me the most expensive LLM calls from the last 24 hours"
"Create a budget policy limiting the Marketing team to $500/month on LLM usage"
"Export all logs from last week for our compliance audit"
