monid-ai/monid
A tool gateway for agents: one key instead of a dozen vendor keys, per-call billing, endpoint chosen at request time. The open MIT part is the connector layer.
Checked by us· Sep 17, 2026
On Deno 2.9.6: deno task check passes, deno task test gives 787 green tests in six and a half minutes. The tests run on recorded responses with no network access. For a project that is a week old, that is a serious claim staked.

What it is
The idea in one sentence: what OpenRouter did for models, this tries to do for tools. One base URL and one key, and an agent reaches web search, scraping, company data, market data and media generation without opening an account with every vendor.
The interesting part is how the money is counted. Every connector declares its own usage model: a charge per call, per returned result, or per unit such as a second of video. The engine settles against the vendor's raw response, before any output mapping, so a vendor error or an empty result costs nothing.
How it works
- 01discoverfreeRanks the catalogue against your job and returns each candidate's price, live health and observed latencies.
- 02inspectfreeShows an endpoint's full contract: what it takes and what it returns.
- 03runbilledExecutes the call and bills it by the connector's usage model.
Know before installing
- On Windows
deno task catalogfails with os error 123:scripts/lib.tstakes the repository root from a file URL's.pathname. A one-line fix withfromFileUrlsorts it. - The catalogue numbers disagree: the README promises 2,000+ tools from 72+ providers, the site says 1,700, the open repository holds 21 providers. The full catalogue lives on the hosted service and cannot be verified from the repository.
