Your IDE already has one AI. MegaLens adds a second opinion.
MegaLens adds planning, research, code review, security audit and diff review to your IDE, without replacing your existing workflow. Works with Claude Code, Codex CLI, Cursor, Gemini CLI and Lovable, and with any tool that supports OAuth MCP connectors, such as ChatGPT and Claude.ai. GitHub Copilot is coming soon.
MegaLens reviews. Your IDE decides what to change.
Catch issues before you ship
MegaLens can catch code and security issues before you ship.
Models from different companies
MegaLens selects up to four AI models from different companies to review your code. Each result names the models that actually took part.
Your first review is free
No card and no API key for the first one. After that, verify a card for $0.50 and get $5.50 total credit, enough to test planning, audits, and MCP workflows.
How it works
Three steps to use MegaLens in your IDE workflows.
Connect MegaLens to your IDE
Add one MCP config block. Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and similar MCP clients can connect in seconds.
Send targeted work
Use MegaLens for planning, research, code review and security audits.
Your IDE makes the final call
MegaLens returns tighter findings. Your IDE decides what to accept, change, reject, or act on next.
Workflow fit
MegaLens complements your IDE.
MegaLens runs the review on separate models, away from your IDE's own model.
Claude Code
Already in flow
Claude is already in the driver seat
MegaLens adds
Review from outside the main model family
Result
MegaLens adds planning and audits. Claude Code decides what to change.
Codex (OpenAI)
Already in flow
Codex is already driving the session
MegaLens adds
Targeted review without replacing Codex
Result
MegaLens runs the review in parallel. Codex decides what to do with it.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, Lovable
Already in flow
Your editor already has a primary assistant
MegaLens adds
Planning, audit and research.
Result
MegaLens complements your primary assistant instead of becoming another IDE. Your editor remains the final decision-maker.
Setup
One setup, for every plan
Every plan connects to the hosted endpoint with one token.
Using ChatGPT, Claude.ai or another tool with OAuth connectors? You need no token or config block: paste https://megalens.ai/api/mcp as a connector, then sign in and approve. See the steps.
Get your token
Connect to the hosted endpoint with your token. Your first review is free. After that, pick a plan with reviews included, or use credits ($9 per 1M blended tokens, capped at $3 per review).
Copy your MegaLens token from Settings → MCP setup:
Add MegaLens to your IDE
The CLI helper detects your editor and writes the hosted config:
npm install -g megalens-mcp megalens-mcp setup
Or add it yourself:
Run this once. The --scope user flag makes MegaLens available in every project:
claude mcp add --transport http --scope user megalens \ "https://megalens.ai/api/mcp?ide=claude-code" \ --header "Authorization: Bearer ml_tok_your_token_here"
Or edit ~/.claude.json yourself:
{
"mcpServers": {
"megalens": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://megalens.ai/api/mcp?ide=claude-code",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer ml_tok_your_token_here"
}
}
}
}Add to ~/.codex/config.toml. It is TOML, not JSON:
[mcp_servers.megalens]
url = "https://megalens.ai/api/mcp?ide=codex"
http_headers = { "Authorization" = "Bearer ml_tok_your_token_here" }Cursor, Gemini CLI and Lovable each use a different format. Copy the exact block from Cursor, Gemini CLI or Lovable. GitHub Copilot is coming soon.
Choose how reviews are paid
A plan. Plus and Pro include a monthly allowance of reviews, with model usage included, from $19 a month. See plans.
Managed Credits. Prepay from $20. Billed at $9 per 1M blended tokens, capped at $3 per review.
Nothing to add to the config for either. On Free, MegaLens selects two reviewing models. On a plan, MegaLens selects up to four reviewing models.
Start asking for targeted work
MegaLens tools appear after you restart your IDE. Ask for specific work:
Core scopes
Five scopes in one tool.
Planning, research, code intelligence, security audit and diff audit.
Planning
Use MegaLens for serious planning passes before commits, migrations, infra changes, or product decisions.
Research
Ask MegaLens to research a question with models from different companies.
Code review
Code review works on the actual files your IDE sends, so ask it to send the code, not a summary. You can also ask it for architecture and tradeoff checks.
Security audit
Useful for catching security issues before release.
Diff audit
Run a last review of your diff before you merge.
A second opinion before you ship.
Your IDE reads the findings and decides what to fix.
