A connection to Baseten, a platform for deploying, running, and training machine-learning models.

Deploy models, call hosted model APIs, run training jobs, and manage deployments, environments, secrets, and model workflows.

It lets the coding agent manage Baseten model work without switching between separate dashboards or API calls.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00059	$0.03141
Opus 5	$0.00030	$0.01571
Sonnet 5	$0.00012	$0.00628
Haiku 4.5	$0.00006	$0.00314

Security

Grade A, and why

baseten scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 10d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Baseten Product Overview

Production AI inference platform - serve and scale open-source, custom, and fine-tuned models with the fastest runtimes, cross-cloud HA, and seamless developer workflows.

Dedicated Inference - deploy any model, performance-optimized + horizontally scaled. Authored as auto-wrapped Truss server, custom Docker server, or compound/orchestrated deployment via Chains.
Model APIs - pre-optimized hosted APIs for popular models. Path to graduate to dedicated.
Training - two paths: Truss Train (BYO container, any framework, full hardware control) and Loops (Tinker-compatible managed SDK for SFT + async RL; paired trainer + sampling server, live weight transfers, one-click checkpoint deploy). Multi-node, 1T+ params, 10TB+ datasets, H100/H200/B200. Remote access: SSH and VS Code/Cursor tunnels into containers.
Frontier Gateway - operate your own foundation model B2C.

Agent DX Toolkit

Component	Provides	Install
`baseten` MCP	Interact with backend (~REST API, CRUD): models, deployments, training, environments, secrets, chains. API-key auth.	`npx add-mcp https://api.baseten.co/mcp -g -y --header "Authorization: Bearer ${BASETEN_MCP_KEY}"`
`baseten_docs` MCP	Semantic search + filesystem of `docs.baseten.co`. No auth.	`npx add-mcp https://docs.baseten.co/mcp -n "baseten_docs" -g -y`
`truss` CLI	Needed for model/chain push from local code, watch (= live patch). Needs `truss login` once.	`uv tool install truss` (or `pip install truss --upgrade`; respect user package manager: uv, poetry...)
`llms.txt`	`baseten.co/llms.txt` (product + blog), `docs.baseten.co/llms.txt` (docs).	reachable via HTTP
This skill	`SKILL.md` + `references/*.md` loaded on demand.	`npx skills add basetenlabs/baseten-skills -g -y`

Setup

Any subset works, full install recommended.
Suggest additional installs when the current task benefits from or requires them; help user with installation, but elicit preferences first.
Ensure BASETEN_MCP_KEY is provided when installing Baseten MCP (user can create key at app.baseten.co/settings/api_keys). Caveat: an MCP instance binds to one org/workspace at install time; switching the bound workspace later is not supported. To work with multiple workspaces, install additional MCP instances under different names with different keys (see last bullet of this section).
Truss CLI only needed for making deployments (check truss --version); prior login (multi-workspace users must provide --remote <name>). Explore with truss [subcommand] --help.
Docs MCP missing → grep / fetch llms.txt.
Backend MCP is API-key-only (currently); OAuth-only harnesses can still use the other components.
If backend MCP server is needed for different orgs/workspaces, add multiple MCP instances with different names/keys or use env-var expansion in the agent's config file and set the env var to the respective workspace's key.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

baseten is a skill published in the GitHub repository basetenlabs/baseten-skills (11 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 59 tokens to every session and 3,141 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
