# inspector vs freellmapi

inspector and freellmapi share 9 technologies: Vite, React, Express, yaml, Zod, Ajv, dnd-kit, react-markdown, and remark-gfm. Both are written in TypeScript.

- [modelcontextprotocol/inspector](https://seerepo.com/r/modelcontextprotocol/inspector): Deterministic testing tools for MCP servers
- [tashfeenahmed/freellmapi](https://seerepo.com/r/tashfeenahmed/freellmapi): 7.4 billion tokens per month. 34 free LLM providers. 635 free model endpoints. All behind one /v1 endpoint, plus any custom OpenAI-compatible endpoint. Smart routing, automatic failover, encrypted keys. Personal experimentation only.

## What they share and what sets them apart

- In common: Vite, React, Express, yaml, Zod, Ajv, dnd-kit, react-markdown, remark-gfm
- Only in inspector: Hono, MCP, pino, ink, ink-scroll-view, Mantine, ace-builds, react-ace, react-icons, papaparse, @hono/node-server
- Only in freellmapi: react-router-dom, SQLite, Electron, Tailwind CSS, class-variance-authority, tailwind-merge, Base UI, liquid-gooey, recharts, Lucide, Simple Icons, highlight.js, helmet, sharp

- Size: Lines written by people and agents, without generated ones; code files, without tests.
- Who writes it: A commit counts as AI's when it carries its signature: a Co-Authored-By line, its author name or the merge of its branch.
- Activity: From GitHub and its history, on the day SeeRepo read it.
- Tests: The files that test the code, and the share of code files a test imports.
