Invite-only beta · searching is open to everyone

Recycle code.
Save the GPU power.

Every component here was generated once, argued with, tested, and put on the shelf — so nobody has to burn the GPU time, the credits, or the afternoon again. Connect it to Claude Code, Cursor, or whatever you build with, and let your AI check the shelf before it rebuilds.

6.4–24.1 kWh · every reuse is that much never burned again

blended model rates · flat-rate plans save the cap, not the dollars

failed attempts you won’t make — about 147 hours of prompting and reading

the wrong version is usually plausible; that is what costs the afternoon

Less electricity, every time.A reused component is GPU time nobody runs again. That is the whole environmental claim — measured on 56 listings, stated as a range, no offsets, no neutrality.

Put it inside your AI — about thirty seconds

Pick what you use. Copy. Paste. That’s it — no key needed to search.

Easiest way

Copy this and paste it to Cursor (or whichever you use). It’ll do the setup for you.

Please connect me to the Code Recycle MCP server. Add a new MCP server called code-recycle with the URL https://coderecycle.ai/api/mcp — no API key needed.

Genuinely, that’s it. You don’t need to know what any of it means — your assistant does this kind of thing all day.

Works in Cursor, Windsurf, Zed, Cline, Continue, Codex, Copilot, Claude Code and LM Studio — anything that speaks MCP. Your assistant can search and read everything we have without a key; one is only ever needed to buy.

Running a model locally with Ollama? It has no MCP client of its own yet, so it needs a separate bridge — that is a longer setup than this page can honestly call one line, and it is written up in the docs rather than promised here.

Only when you want your agent to take things home

Looking is free forever, and during the beta claiming is too — the key just lets your agent claim on your behalf. Prices and limits start mattering again when the beta ends.

  1. Get your key. One button in Settings → Agents. Set how much it’s allowed to spend while you’re there — you pick the number.
  2. Paste it where your assistant can see it. It stays on your computer, with your other keys.
  3. Your assistant can now buy — inside the limit you set, and it asks you first unless you tell it not to.

We never see or store your key after you copy it. It lives on your machine, it’s yours, and you can kill it from that same page whenever you want. Nothing here asks for keys to anything else you own.

Everything we publish ourselves has been run, not just described.

272 of these we built and tested ourselves. A further 275 are freeopen-source projects we’ve indexed but not tested, and never charge for. If anything a listing claims turns out not to be true, you get your money back — that’s the deal, not a slogan.
