What is the Helicone (LLM Observability) MCP Server?
Connect your Helicone account to any AI agent and take full control of your LLM observability and gateway monitoring through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Request Monitoring — Query deep proxy logs to inspect exact prompts and outputs sent to LLM APIs directly from your agent
- Cost Analysis — Break down spending by model, user, or custom metadata properties to monitor your AI burn rate in real-time
- Latency Optimization — Measure Time To First Token (TTFT) and pinpoint slowness caused by specific upstream LLM providers
- Prompt Management — Access managed prompt versions and track iterative changes in your AI instruction logic natively
- Session Tracing — Isolate and analyze multi-turn graph traces connecting consecutive LLM calls to debug complex agentic workflows
- User Insights — Track precise LLM interactions based on Helicone tags and identify your most active human clients
- Feedback & RLHF — Extract user critiques (Thumbs Up/Down) and log offline Human-in-the-Loop verdicts to improve model grounding
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Helicone API Key
- Start monitoring your LLM infrastructure from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- LLM Engineers — debug prompt performance and measure TTFT latency across multiple upstream providers
- Product Owners — monitor AI spending and calculate costs per user, feature, or organization
- Data Scientists — analyze user feedback and improve model response quality through logged critiques
- DevOps/SREs — ensure the availability and reliability of your AI gateway and proxy layers

Frequently asked questions
Can I see the exact prompt that caused a specific error?
Yes. Use the query_requests tool to fetch direct prompts and outputs from the proxy logs. You can filter by status or custom tags to find the exact interaction that needs debugging.
How do I track costs for a specific customer ID?
Ask your agent to query_costs and include your customer identity in the filter. Helicone maps costs per model and user, allowing you to see exactly how much each client is burning in LLM tokens.
Can my agent log human feedback into Helicone?
Absolutely. Use the log_feedback tool to inject offline Human-in-the-Loop verdicts or text critiques directly into Helicone's database, helping you refine your model's grounding over time.
How does the Vercel AI SDK connect to MCP servers?
Import createMCPClient from @ai-sdk/mcp and pass the server URL. The SDK discovers all tools and provides typed TypeScript interfaces for each one.
Can I use MCP tools in Edge Functions?
Yes. The AI SDK is fully edge-compatible. MCP connections work on Vercel Edge Functions, Cloudflare Workers, and similar runtimes.
Does it support streaming tool results?
Yes. The SDK provides streaming primitives like useChat and streamText that handle tool calls and display results progressively in the UI.
createMCPClient is not a function
Install: npm install @ai-sdk/mcp
