About Sprout MCP
Sprout MCP is an MCP server in the Analytics category: model-tiered content pipeline — cheap models seed, expensive models verify.
Install
uvx sprout-mcppip install sprout-mcpThis server has no ConduID identity, so agent calls to it are not receipted. Pin the version you install and review the source before granting it credentials.

Sprout MCP
Drop your Opus bill 80%. Model-tiered content pipeline for MCP — cheap models seed work, expensive models verify it.
Sprout routes tasks to the right model tier automatically. Haiku drafts, Sonnet fact-checks, Opus verifies. Every chunk tracks provenance, confidence, and cost.
Install
uvx sprout-mcp
Or add to Claude Code's MCP config (~/.claude/settings.json):
{
"mcpServers": {
"sprout": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["sprout-mcp"]
}
}
}
How It Works
Haiku (seed) → Sonnet (watered) → Opus (sprouted)
Draft Fact-check Verify
$0.005/M $0.015/M $0.075/M
- Seed — Haiku drafts content cheaply (summarization, extraction, first passes)
- Water — Sonnet reviews and fact-checks the seeds
- Sprout — Opus deep-verifies only what passed Sonnet's review
Instead of running everything through Opus at $75/M output tokens, most work stays at Haiku's $5/M. Only the final verification — typically 10-20% of total work — touches Opus.

Custom Config File
Create a JSON file and point SPROUT_CONFIG at it:
{
"routes": {
"code_review": { "tier": "sonnet", "reason": "Code analysis needs reasoning" },
"translation": { "tier": "haiku", "reason": "Straightforward language task" }
},
"pricing": {
"custom-model": 10.00
}
}
Default Routing Table
| Task Type | Tier | Why |
|---|---|---|
biography_synthesis |
haiku | Factual summarization |
council_description |
haiku | Historical summarization |
document_synopsis |
haiku | Content summarization |
json_validation |
haiku | Structural verification |
summarization |
haiku | General summarization |
data_extraction |
haiku | Structured extraction |
fact_check_first_pass |
sonnet | Cross-reference claims |
code_review |
sonnet | Code analysis |
fact_check_final |
opus | Deep factual verification |
theological_analysis |
opus | Domain expertise required |
complex_analysis |
opus | Deep reasoning required |
Unknown task types default to haiku — start cheap, escalate if needed.
Example Workflow
You: Use recommend_model for "biography_synthesis"
Sprout: biography_synthesis → haiku-4.5 (Factual summarization)
You: Use submit_chunk to store the Haiku output
Sprout: Stored chunk abc12345 [seed] for person-001.biography
You: Use get_review_queue to see what needs fact-checking
Sprout: 1 chunk pending review
You: Use mark_reviewed to promote after Sonnet fact-checks it
Sprout: Chunk abc12345 → watered (verified by sonnet-4.6)
You: Use get_cost_report
Sprout: haiku-4.5: ~1,300 tokens (1 chunk) — $0.0065
Total: $0.0065
