Details

From the project README

linkbit-mcp

HOL Guard Scanner AllMCPs Verified MCP Trust Score

MCP server for LinkBit: shorten links, bulk create, QR codes, and click analytics from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and n8n.

Public docs: linkbit.live/docs · linkbit.live/mcp

Setup

  1. Sign in at linkbit.live and create an API key (slk_...) on the API Keys page.
  2. Node.js 18+ is required (fetch).
APP_URL=https://linkbit.live
API_KEY=slk_your_key

Auth against the REST API uses either Authorization: Bearer slk_... or x-api-key: slk_.... This server sends Bearer.

Install

npx -y linkbit-mcp

Claude Code:

claude mcp add linkbit -e API_KEY=slk_your_key -e APP_URL=https://linkbit.live -- npx -y linkbit-mcp

Claude Desktop / Cursor (mcp.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "linkbit": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "linkbit-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "APP_URL": "https://linkbit.live",
        "API_KEY": "slk_your_key"
      }
    }
  }
}

Example prompts

  • Shorten https://example.com/campaign as slug spring and utm_source newsletter
  • List my links and show clicks for the first id since 2026-01-01
  • Disable link <id> then generate a print PNG QR

Errors

Tool failures (missing key, 401, invalid URL, daily limit, unsafe destination) are returned as tools/call with isError: true so the model can explain them. Protocol errors (unknown method, bad JSON) stay JSON-RPC errors.

  • 401 — API key missing or wrong (slk_...). Create a key under API Keys.
  • 400 — invalid URL, slug taken, daily create limit, blocked or unsafe destination.
  • 404 — unknown link id.
  • Process fails at start if Node is older than 18 (fetch is required).

n8n, Make, and custom agents can also call /api/v1 with the same headers.

Local development (ShortLinks monorepo)

Until npm publish, Cursor can run the copy in this folder:

  1. Copy mcp/cursor.mcp.json.example to .cursor/mcp.json (gitignored) or ~/.cursor/mcp.json.
  2. Paste the slk_… key into env.API_KEY.
  3. For this repo before publish, use "command": "node" and "args": ["mcp/src/index.js"].

New to MCP?

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.

An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
