#25229 Integration: WhichModel MCP for real-time pricing data in model routing
### Feature proposal
**Context:** LiteLLM abstracts 100+ LLM providers behind a unified interface. Users routing between models need accurate, up-to-date pricing to make cost-optimal decisions.
**Proposal:** [WhichModel](https://whichmodel.dev) is a free MCP server that tracks pricing and capabilities across 100+ models, refreshed every 4 hours. It could complement LiteLLM's routing by providing real-time pricing data.
**Potential integration points:** 1. Use WhichModel pricing data to power LiteLLM's cost-based routing 2. Add WhichModel as an MCP tool example in LiteLLM docs 3. Use `check_price_changes` to keep LiteLLM's internal pricing tables current
**MCP Config:** ```json {"mcpServers":{"whichmodel":{"url":"https://whichmodel.dev/mcp"}}} ```
**4 tools:** - `recommend_model` โ cost-optimized suggestions by task type, complexity, budget - `compare_models` โ head-to-head comparison with volume cost projections - `get_pricing` โ raw pricing data with filters (model, provider, capabilities, price ceiling) - `check_price_changes` โ pricing change tracker since a given date
