Status page showed 80.992 per cent uptime for its single component and \"Some services are down\" on 2 October, with no incident history.\n\n**Laminar API + MCP.** Browser session recordings can be matched to agent traces. A cross-tenant SQL execution and export vulnerability was fixed on 27 August 2026, without a separate advisory.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### HoneyHive\n\n1. Give the agent a read-only `hh_ro_` key for analysis and a separate `hh_ingst_` key for sending traces\n2. Treat a 404 as possibly a bad, revoked or expired key before assuming the record is missing\n3. Set `limit` on `POST /v1/events/search`. The default is 1,000 rows\n4. Use the CLI (`brew tap honeyhiveai/tap \u0026\u0026 brew install honeyhive`) from a coding agent. It maps one command to each API endpoint\n5. Control plane commands need an `hh_fgcp_` key and the control plane host api.cp.us.honeyhive.ai\n\n### Laminar API + MCP\n\n1. Use `query_laminar_sql` to find trace IDs, then `get_trace_context` for a compact summary of one run\n2. Always add a time range and `LIMIT` to SQL. Server caps on time, memory and result size reject wide scans\n3. On 429 from the SQL API, back off. The per-project limit isn't published\n4. Set `flush_by_size` when spans carry whole conversation histories, or large batches get rejected\n5. Keep the project API key in a header, not in the URL\n\n## Other comparisons with HoneyHive or Laminar API + MCP\n\n- [Arize Phoenix vs HoneyHive](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/arize-phoenix-vs-honeyhive.md)\n- [Arize Phoenix vs Laminar API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/arize-phoenix-vs-laminar.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- [Braintrust API + MCP vs HoneyHive](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/braintrust-vs-honeyhive.md)\n- [Braintrust API + MCP vs Laminar API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/braintrust-vs-laminar.md)\n- [Galileo API + MCP vs HoneyHive](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/galileo-vs-honeyhive.md)\n- [Galileo API + MCP vs Laminar API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/galileo-vs-laminar.md)\n- [Helicone AI Gateway + MCP vs HoneyHive](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/helicone-vs-honeyhive.md)\n- [Helicone AI Gateway + MCP vs Laminar API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/helicone-vs-laminar.md)\n- [HoneyHive vs Langfuse API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/honeyhive-vs-langfuse.md)\n- [HoneyHive vs LangSmith API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/honeyhive-vs-langsmith.md)\n- [HoneyHive vs Respan API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/honeyhive-vs-respan.md)\n- [Laminar API + MCP vs Langfuse API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/laminar-vs-langfuse.md)\n- [Laminar API + MCP vs LangSmith API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/laminar-vs-langsmith.md)\n- [Laminar API + MCP vs Respan API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/laminar-vs-respan.md)\n", "meta": { "attribution": "Anchor Terminal (https://www.anchorterminal.com)", "docs": "https://www.anchorterminal.com/docs/", "generatedAt": "2026-10-04", "license": "CC-BY-4.0", "method": "https://www.anchorterminal.com/benchmark/", "methodology": "0.3", "openapi": "https://www.anchorterminal.com/openapi.json", "preview": false, "run": "2026-10-01", "runLabel": "October 2026 research run" }, "page": { "breadcrumbs": [ { "name": "Home", "url": "https://www.anchorterminal.com/" }, { "name": "Compare", "url": "https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/" }, { "name": "HoneyHive vs Laminar API + MCP", "url": "" } ], "description": "Laminar API + MCP has a score of 57 (C) against HoneyHive's 55.9 (C).
