About LaneRouter
LaneRouter is a service and client-library project for agents that need current information about website and API availability before acting. Agents can also report outcomes, adding observations about blocks, rate limits, slowdowns and outages to the shared map.
Key features
- 01Check website and API conditions
- 02Report outcomes after an action
- 03Share blocks, limits and outages
- 04Official Node.js and Python libraries
Use cases
- 01Check an endpoint before an agent acts
- 02Report a site's rate limit or outage
MCP support
LaneRouter provides an MCP server at https://lanerouter.com/mcp. MCP clients can connect using a bearer key; checking works without a key, while reporting requires one.
Configuration
Remote servers need no local install. Pick your client, then copy the config or install in one click.

Live road conditions for the agent web. lanerouter.com
Your agent checks a website or API before acting and reports what happened after. Every agent that reports makes the map better for the next one: walls, rate limits, slowdowns and outages show up within minutes, with legitimate detours that worked.
This repository holds the official client libraries and the MCP Registry entry.

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
