Every call comes back with the model or tool that ran it and what it cost, all on one bill.
These costs are illustrative, not a quote. flux-auto bills each model step at the Standard rate, or the Fast rate when it sends the step to the Fast lane and a Fast model answers. Never more than Standard. Pin a model and you pay its own rate. See pricing

https://api.fluxrouter.ai/mcp-tools/, with your Flux key as the bearer token (Authorization: Bearer sk-flux-…). It offers web_fetch to read a page and image_generate to make an image.One key, any agent. If it can talk to OpenAI or Anthropic, it can connect to Flux.
The prices come from the booking pages Flux read during the job, so they are what those pages showed at the time. Check before you book.
Not yet. Web search is shipping. Until then, give your agent the pages to read, and Flux reads them. Apps on your own key are shipping. Until then, your agent can use its own tools for these steps, and Murage runs them today with apps built in. Speech is shipping. Until then, the answer comes back as text. The steps marked Live work today.
The costs on this page are illustrative, not a quote. flux-auto bills each model step at the Standard rate, or the Fast rate when it sends the step to the Fast lane and a Fast model answers. Never more than Standard. Pin a model and you pay that model’s own rate instead. Web, image, voice and app steps have their own prices.
Hermes reads the key from the variable named in api_key_env, so export FLUX_API_KEY in the shell you launch it from. Keep the name set to flux-auto and Flux picks the lane for each request, or set flux-fast, flux-standard or flux-reasoning to pin a tier.
One key for every model and tool in this example.
