baipiao turns the messy ritual of assembling free developer infrastructure into a clean, agent-assisted workflow.

Search for a free-tier service, generate a precise setup prompt, hand it to Codex / Claude Code / Cursor, then let baipiao collect the returned keys, store them in a local Vault, generate .env, test the connection, and expose the result through MCP.

Modern builders can ship astonishingly far on free tiers: LLM APIs, databases, object storage, hosting, auth, email, monitoring, vector databases, and more.

The problem is not that these services are unavailable. The problem is operational drag.

Every service has a different console, API key page, quota model, onboarding flow, environment variable shape, and security convention. AI coding agents can help, but they need a structured task, a safe boundary, and a place to hand the result back.

baipiao is that control plane.

• Agent-first, human-approved: baipiao prepares the work; the user stays in control of login, verification, and sensitive actions.
• Local by default: secrets live in the local system credential store, not in a hosted dashboard.
• Prompt to production: generated prompts are not notes; they are executable setup briefs for coding agents.
• Structured where it matters: known services get validation, env generation, connection tests, and safer status reporting.
• MCP-native: Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, and other MCP clients can call baipiao without receiving raw secret values.

npm i -g baipiao

Or run it directly:

npx baipiao init

If you're working from a local checkout and do not have a global baipiao binary yet, use the built CLI entrypoint:

pnpm build
node packages/cli/dist/index.js init

Then:

baipiao init
baipiao search llm
baipiao search openruter
baipiao search 数据库
baipiao setup groq
baipiao vault list
baipiao env generate
baipiao test groq
baipiao status

Through MCP, Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, and other agent clients can query the full imported free-for-dev catalog, inspect localized candidates, generate setup prompts, and read safe project status without receiving raw secret values.

baipiao search llm

Detected language: en
Found free LLM services from the full free-for-dev catalog.

Generate a setup prompt:

baipiao setup groq

baipiao copies a provider-specific prompt for your agent. After the agent finishes the website task, it returns:

GROQ_API_KEY=gsk_xxx

baipiao then validates, stores, writes, and tests it:

✓ GROQ_API_KEY format valid
✓ Saved to Vault
✓ Added to .env.local
✓ Connection test passed

baipiao treats secrets as product infrastructure, not clipboard debris.

baipiao vault list
baipiao vault set GROQ_API_KEY
baipiao vault import
baipiao vault copy GROQ_API_KEY
baipiao vault reveal GROQ_API_KEY
baipiao vault health

Default storage:

Safety rules:

• vault list never prints raw secret values.
• vault copy uses the clipboard instead of terminal output.
• vault reveal requires explicit confirmation.
• MCP tools do not expose raw secret reveal operations.
• Logs and generated status output are designed to avoid leaking keys.

Start the MCP server:

baipiao mcp

Install into a client:

baipiao mcp install codex
baipiao mcp install cursor
baipiao mcp install claude

install updates the target client configuration in place. You can also copy this manual stdio config map:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "baipiao": {
      "command": "baipiao",
      "args": ["mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Codex local HTTP configuration:

baipiao mcp install codex --port 7333

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "baipiao": {
      "url": "http://127.0.0.1:7333/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Available MCP tool families:

stack recommendation

MCP intentionally does not provide tools such as vault_reveal, get_secret_value, browser control, shell execution, or secret upload.

baipiao does not:

• Store website login passwords.
• Bypass CAPTCHA, 2FA, phone verification, or provider risk checks.
• Auto-register accounts.
• Click billing, upgrade, payment, subscribe, or paid-plan actions.
• Upload secrets to a remote baipiao service.

baipiao is an independent developer tool and is not affiliated with the third-party services it may reference. Free-tier availability, quotas, pricing, API behavior, and provider terms can change at any time.

You are responsible for reviewing each provider's terms, protecting your own credentials, and deciding what actions an agent is allowed to perform. baipiao helps structure configuration workflows, but it does not guarantee service availability, cost-free usage, security compliance, or legal suitability for your project.
