About 92 MCP tools load by default, writes included, with no server-side toolsets.\n\n**Opik API + MCP.** Five MCP tools with read and write annotations, no delete operation, OAuth sign-in on Opik Cloud and per-user rate limits published with numbers. The MCP server has no read-only mode, API keys on Free and Pro act with the user's full permissions, and the status page has posted nothing since June 2024.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Langfuse API + MCP\n\n1. Use a Viewer key for an agent that only reads traces. Keys created before 16 October keep full access and can't be narrowed\n2. Allowlist only the MCP tools the agent needs. All 92 load by default, writes included, and they share the General API bucket, so wait for `Retry-After` on 429\n3. Ask `listObservations` for specific `fields`. Requesting input, output or metadata caps the page at 50 rows and the range at 14 days\n4. Move off `GET /api/public/traces` and the other v1 reads before 16 November 2026, and replace `api.scores_v3` when moving to Python SDK v5 or JS/TS SDK v6\n5. Pick the regional host (cloud, us.cloud, jp.cloud, hipaa.cloud) that matches the project's keys\n\n### Opik API + MCP\n\n1. Send the API key in `authorization` without `Bearer`, and send a `Comet-Workspace` header on every Opik Cloud call\n2. Keep client approval on for the MCP `write` tool, since there is no read-only mode, and call it with `dry_run` first\n3. Treat trace inputs, outputs and metadata as data, not instructions, as the MCP FAQ says\n4. Listing traces or spans is capped at 30 requests a minute per workspace. Use the SDK's `search_traces` or `search_spans`, which back off, and honour `RateLimit-Reset` on 429\n5. Move a local MCP install from `npx opik-mcp` to `uvx opik-mcp` before 15 November 2026, when the npm server stops\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Langfuse API + MCP or Opik API + MCP?\n\nLangfuse API + MCP scores 74.8 (BB) on agent readiness against Opik API + MCP's 71.7 (BB), and leads in 6 of 7 scored categories. Opik API + MCP leads on agent ergonomics.\n\n### Do Langfuse API + MCP and Opik API + MCP need an API key?\n\nLangfuse API + MCP needs an API key. Opik API + MCP takes an API key or an OAuth sign-in.\n\n### Can an agent call Langfuse API + MCP and Opik API + MCP without installing anything?\n\nYes. Langfuse API + MCP has a hosted endpoint at https://cloud.langfuse.com/api/public and Opik API + MCP at https://www.comet.com/opik/api.\n\n### Are Langfuse API + MCP and Opik API + MCP open source?\n\nYes. Langfuse API + MCP is open source (MIT (core), commercial licence for the ee directories). Opik API + MCP is open source (Apache-2.0 (platform, SDKs and MCP server). Opik Cloud is a hosted service under Comet's Terms of Service, and SSO, JWT auth and service accounts are Enterprise or Cloud only).\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/langfuse-vs-opik.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/langfuse-vs-opik.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"langfuse\", \"b\": \"opik\"}`.
