Save tokens. Cut inference costs. Route compute through MVM nodes on the cheapest available energy.

What is mica?

LLM inference is expensive. Running agents 24/7 burns tokens and energy. Mica fixes this by routing your compute-heavy tasks through MVM (Mica Virtual Machine) nodes — distributed across regions with the cheapest renewable energy on the planet.

Instead of paying full price for cloud compute at $0.10+/kWh, MVM routes your workloads to nodes running on Nordic hydroelectric ($0.02/kWh), Icelandic geothermal ($0.01/kWh), and Canadian hydro ($0.04/kWh). Same results, ~40% lower cost.

Mica runs as an MCP server plugin for Claude Code. When your agent needs to run inference, batch processing, or long-running tasks, it routes through MVM instead of standard cloud — saving tokens and money automatically.

Install

Claude Code Plugin

/plugin marketplace add nhevers/mica-plugin

Then install:

/plugin install mica

Setup

1. Get an API key at mica.energy/app
2. Set your key:

export MICA_API_KEY=mica_your_key_here

Or paste your key in chat and the plugin will prompt you to set it via mica_set_api_key.

Tools

Tool	What it does
mica_set_api_key	Set your mica API key at runtime
mica_route_compute	Route a compute job through MVM nodes
mica_estimate_savings	Estimate token and cost savings vs standard cloud
mica_node_status	Check MVM node clusters, energy costs, and load
mica_check_job	Check the status of a submitted compute job

Example calls

mica_set_api_key({ key: "mica_abc123..." })
mica_route_compute({ task: "batch inference on 10k samples", priority: "normal" })
mica_estimate_savings({ tokens: 50000, model: "claude-3.5-sonnet" })
mica_node_status()
mica_check_job({ job_id: "mvm_abc123" })

How It Works

Agent has a compute task
        ↓
mica_estimate_savings shows ~40% savings
        ↓
mica_route_compute sends job to MVM
        ↓
MVM routes to cheapest energy node
        ↓
Job runs on Nordic hydro / Icelandic geothermal
        ↓
Results returned, tokens saved

Troubleshooting

API key not working Make sure your subscription is active at mica.energy/app.

Tools not appearing Rebuild the MCP server:

cd mcp-server && npm run build

Connection errors Check that MICA_API_KEY is set in your environment and the API is reachable.
