Service offline since late 2024. api.baserun.ai doesn't resolve and app.baserun.ai serves an expired certificate.\n\n**LangSmith API + MCP.** Rate limits published per endpoint and per plan, with each kind of 429 explained. Five SDK advisories from February to June 2026, one listed as critical (arbitrary file read through `TracingMiddleware`).\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Baserun\n\n1. Don't install `baserun` from PyPI or npm. Nothing answers behind it\n2. Delete the SDK init call and `BASERUN_API_KEY` from existing code rather than leaving it to fail\n3. Ignore docs.baserun.ai. It describes a service that no longer runs and doesn't say so\n\n### LangSmith API + MCP\n\n1. Batch run reads. `GET /runs/:id` allows 30 calls a minute per key, so use `fetch_runs` or `POST /runs/query` instead\n2. Pass `trace_id` or `min_start_time` to `fetch_runs` and keep `limit` low. Results page by a 25,000-character budget\n3. Don't call `create_dataset` or `run_experiment` over MCP to make changes. They return how-to text, not results\n4. Send `X-Api-Key` and point at the regional host (eu., apac. or aws.api.smith.langchain.com) that matches the workspace\n5. Move off the v1 runs query and retrieve endpoints before their 31 January 2027 sunset\n\n## Other comparisons with Baserun or LangSmith API + MCP\n\n- [Arize Phoenix vs Baserun](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/arize-phoenix-vs-baserun.md)\n- [Arize Phoenix vs LangSmith API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/arize-phoenix-vs-langsmith.md)\n- [Baserun vs Braintrust API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/baserun-vs-braintrust.md)\n- [Baserun vs Galileo API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/baserun-vs-galileo.md)\n- [Baserun vs Helicone AI Gateway + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/baserun-vs-helicone.md)\n- [Baserun vs HoneyHive](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/baserun-vs-honeyhive.md)\n- [Baserun vs Laminar API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/baserun-vs-laminar.md)\n- [Baserun vs Langfuse API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/baserun-vs-langfuse.md)\n- [Baserun vs Respan API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/baserun-vs-respan.md)\n- [Braintrust API + MCP vs LangSmith API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/braintrust-vs-langsmith.md)\n- [Galileo API + MCP vs LangSmith API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/galileo-vs-langsmith.md)\n- [Helicone AI Gateway + MCP vs LangSmith API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/helicone-vs-langsmith.md)\n- [HoneyHive vs LangSmith API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/honeyhive-vs-langsmith.md)\n- [Laminar API + MCP vs LangSmith API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/laminar-vs-langsmith.md)\n- [Langfuse API + MCP vs LangSmith API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/langfuse-vs-langsmith.md)\n- [LangSmith API + MCP vs Respan API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/langsmith-vs-respan.md)\n",
