The reliability layer for AI agents — answered. Also see docs, install, and privacy.
Glimind is the reliability layer for AI agents — a live, neutral, cross-ecosystem oracle that tells an agent whether any tool (MCP server or API) is working right now, how to call it correctly, and what to use instead if it's down. It is consumed per call over MCP, REST, or a drop-in SDK.
Because external tool calls are where agentic workflows fail most — the tool is down, rate-limited, or called with the wrong shape — and recovering burns tokens on error-reasoning and retries. Consulting Glimind before you act means: fewer failed calls (skip tools that are down right now), fewer wasted tokens (one pre-flight replaces the call → error → retry loop), correct-on-the-first-try calls (a known-good input + expected output shape), automatic failover to a live alternative when a tool is down (the workflow finishes instead of stalling), and the right timeout/retry hints for each tool. route_task even returns "best live tool for X + how to call it + fallbacks" in one call. Higher task success means the person your agent works for gets a faster, more reliable result — and because Glimind sells no tools, the ratings are neutral and unconflicted.
Two sources. Breadth comes from safe liveness probes (the MCP initialize handshake + tools/list — never invoking a tool). Depth comes from privacy-clean outcomes of real calls that consenting agents report via the SDK or OpenTelemetry. Combining cross-ecosystem real usage with probes gives a live verdict no single-tenant tool can match.
Yes — health checks, reliability scores, badges, discovery, and status pages are free with no signup. Premium reads (recipes, alternatives, prepare, alerts) run on metered credits with automatic overage. You can also "pay with data": reporting outcomes earns credits, so heavy contributors run premium for free.
Glimind never stores your arguments, tool outputs, prompts, or any payload. From telemetry it keeps only value-free structure and metadata: a salted hash of the input shape, a value-free output shape, success/failure, a normalized error class, latency, and coarse caller context. The ingest endpoint hard-rejects anything resembling a raw payload. Full detail at https://glimind.com/privacy.
Add the MCP endpoint https://glimind.com/mcp to any client (Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code), or install the SDK (npm i glimind / pip install glimind), or — if you already emit OpenTelemetry GenAI spans — point your OTLP traces exporter at https://glimind.com/v1/traces with no new SDK. Copy-paste config is at https://glimind.com/install.
Registries are catalogs: they tell you a tool exists. Glimind tells you whether it works right now, how to call it correctly, and what to use if it's down. Glimind uses registries as one discovery input and adds the live reliability layer on top.
Observability tools show your own traces (single-tenant). They cannot tell you a tool is failing for everyone right now, or hand you a known-good call shape from others' usage. Glimind is cross-tenant by design — that's the one thing single-tenant tools structurally cannot be.
Yes. Glimind accepts OTLP/JSON at POST https://glimind.com/v1/traces and harvests GenAI execute_tool spans into payload-free reliability data — so any OTel-instrumented agent feeds Glimind with zero new SDK. See https://glimind.com/integrate/opentelemetry.
MCP (any client — Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code), TypeScript and Python SDKs, Vercel AI SDK, LangChain (JS + Python), OpenAI Agents SDK, a zero-code local proxy, and OpenTelemetry. Gateways/routers can embed the reliability feed directly — or route your tools through Glimind's reliability-aware router.
Yes. Declare your upstream MCP servers once (POST /v1/router/profiles) and point any MCP client at the single endpoint you get back (/router/mcp?profile=<token>). Every tools/call is reliability pre-flighted, optionally failed over to a healthy in-profile alternative, and recorded privacy-clean. Glimind is a consented proxy — it forwards each call with YOUR credentials and never invokes your tools on its own. It's free and needs no signup.
Yes. Wrap a call with the SDK using autoRoute and Glimind health-checks first and transparently fails over to a healthy alternative when the tool is down — so your agent keeps working through outages — while reporting the outcome (privacy-clean) automatically. The reliability-aware router does the same for tools you route through it, with zero per-call code.
