What you can do with Transistor

Each of these is one operation on one endpoint, available both as a workflow step and as a tool an AI agent can call on its own. Nothing bundles several operations into one action, so what a run did stays readable afterwards.

Transistor API rate limits

1 request per second
Bursts of up to 60 requests

Rate limited to 10 requests per 10 seconds. Exceeding returns 429 HTTP error and blocks for 10 seconds.

These are the limits Transistor documents, not ones LiveContext measured. They can change and often depend on your plan, so check the Transistor documentation for current values.

Use Transistor from Claude Code, Cursor or Codex

Connect Transistor in LiveContext, create an API key in Settings, then add the LiveContext MCP server to your client. Its Transistor operations become tools the client can call, next to every other integration you connected.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http livecontext https://livecontext.ai/mcp --header "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"

Codex (~/.codex/config.toml)

[mcp_servers.livecontext]
url = "https://livecontext.ai/mcp"

[mcp_servers.livecontext.http_headers]
"X-API-Key" = "YOUR_API_KEY"

Cursor, Claude Desktop and other JSON configs

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "livecontext": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://livecontext.ai/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Set up the MCP server step by step
