Synth v0.23: Index Search from the SDK and MCP, and weekly included usage
Search cited research with FAST Search from the Python SDK, HTTP or hosted MCP, and start on a Free plan with $10 of usage every week.
Synth v0.23 puts Index behind one typed Python SDK, one command line, and a hosted MCP server. Everything uses one
key. Install it with pip install synth-ai==0.23.1, sign up and start on the Free plan.
Index Search from the SDK, HTTP and MCP
FAST Search returns a cited answer. Every citation points to the exact published revision it came from, and each result reports output, accounting and cleanup state separately, so you know what you were charged and why.
- FAST Search is $0.05, drawn from your plan's included usage first.
- Searches are durable: create one, watch its events, read the result, and reattach from a new client.
- Index runs on
gpt-6-luna, and Monitor reviews each result before it is delivered at no extra charge. - Connect Claude Code with
claude mcp add --transport http synth https://api.usesynth.ai/mcpand sign in. - Browse published Contributions from the SDK or the hosted MCP server:
index.contributions.listandindex.contributions.getare available on both.
Weekly included usage on every plan
Included usage now resets every week, counted from the day your organization signed up.
You can also buy credits in whole US dollars, from 5 to 10,000 per purchase. Credits are used last. The usage page keeps two numbers apart: what you consumed, and what was charged and to which source (plan allowance, a promotion, credits, or not billed).
Fixes and improvements
- We improved sign-in:
synth-ai loginuses your browser, andsynth-ai login --with-tokenstores an API key. Stored credentials are private files. - We improved errors: failures arrive as typed exceptions with a code, status and request id, and limit refusals include
retry_after_seconds. - We fixed uncertain outcomes: if a call times out, resolve it with the saved mutation identity before you retry.
- We fixed Search waiting so a failed or cancelled Search raises right away instead of timing out.
- We improved capability discovery: ask the API which operations and limits apply to your organization before you call.
Upgrading from 0.22
The Research facade and the standalone product modules are removed. Use SYNTH_API_KEY and SYNTH_API_URL; the older
variables still work but warn. Follow the 0.22 migration guide.
