Optional. A CiteMe API key (Settings → Account) moves calls from the anonymous limits to your account's plan. Leave it unset to use the endpoint anonymously.
Requests go through mcptry because browsers can't call most MCP servers directly. Header values are sent to the server for that request only and are never stored or logged.
