Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
What is the Infracost MCP Server?
Connect Infracost to your AI agent to bring financial visibility and governance to your Infrastructure as Code (IaC) workflows. Prevent cloud cost surprises before they happen.
What you can do
- Cost Guardrails — List, create, and manage guardrails that trigger alerts or block Pull Requests when cost increases exceed your defined thresholds.
- Tagging Governance — Enforce organizational standards by updating tagging policies, ensuring all cloud resources are correctly attributed to departments or projects.
- Custom Pricing — Manage enterprise-specific price books for AWS and Azure to ensure cost estimates reflect your actual negotiated discounts.
- Business Context — Upload custom properties from external systems like ServiceNow or Backstage to map cloud costs to your internal organizational hierarchy.
- Pricing Queries — Programmatically query cloud pricing data to compare costs across different resource types and regions.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Infracost API Token
- Start managing your cloud governance from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- DevOps Engineers — automate the enforcement of cost policies and tagging standards directly within the CI/CD flow.
- FinOps Teams — gain real-time visibility into infrastructure spend and manage custom enterprise discounts without manual spreadsheets.
- Engineering Managers — set budget thresholds and receive automated summaries of cost impacts for proposed infrastructure changes.

Why OpenAI Agents SDK?
The OpenAI Agents SDK auto-discovers all 13 tools from Infracost through native MCP integration. Build agents with built-in guardrails, tracing, and handoff patterns. chain multiple agents where one queries Infracost, another analyzes results, and a third generates reports, all orchestrated through Vinkius.

Infracost in OpenAI Agents SDK
Infracost and 4,000+ other MCP servers. One platform. One governance layer.
Teams that connect Infracost to OpenAI Agents SDK through Vinkius don't need to source, host, or maintain individual MCP servers. Every tool call runs inside a hardened runtime with credential isolation, DLP, and a signed audit chain.

Why teams choose Vinkius for Infracost in OpenAI Agents SDK
The Infracost MCP Server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS — a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts. All 13 tools execute in hardened sandboxes optimized for native MCP execution.
Your AI agents in OpenAI Agents SDK only access the data you authorize, with DLP that blocks sensitive information from ever reaching the model, kill switch for instant shutdown, and up to 60% token savings. Enterprise-grade infrastructure, zero maintenance.

* Every MCP server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS - a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts optimized for native MCP execution. See our infrastructure
How Vinkius secures
Infracost for OpenAI Agents SDK
Every tool call from OpenAI Agents SDK to the Infracost MCP Server is protected by DLP redaction, cryptographic audit chains, V8 sandbox isolation, kill switch, and financial circuit breakers.
Frequently asked questions
How can I see all active cost guardrails for my organization?
You can use the list_guardrails tool by providing your organization slug. The agent will return a list of all configured thresholds, including cost increase limits and whether they block PRs.
Can I enforce mandatory tags for my cloud resources using this server?
Yes! Use the update_tagging_policy tool to define mandatory tag keys and allowed values. This helps maintain standards across all your repositories.
Is it possible to block expensive Pull Requests automatically?
Absolutely. When using create_guardrail or update_guardrail, you can set the blockPr parameter to true. This ensures that any infrastructure change exceeding your budget cannot be merged without review.
How does the OpenAI Agents SDK connect to MCP?
Use MCPServerSse(url=...) to create a server connection. The SDK auto-discovers all tools and makes them available to your agent with full type information.
Can I use multiple MCP servers in one agent?
Yes. Pass a list of MCPServerSse instances to the agent constructor. The agent can use tools from all connected servers within a single run.
Does the SDK support streaming responses?
Yes. The SDK supports SSE and Streamable HTTP transports, both of which work natively with Vinkius.
