Endpoint Security94
Transport & Reachability100
Schema Quality & AI Usability79
  • 100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).Pass
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
  • Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 7790 tokens (~210/item across 37 items; 36 tools + 1 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params. See how to fix → Fail
  • Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management37
  • Stability observed for 11 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage100
  • 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
  • 100% of tool parameters carry a description.Pass
  • Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.Pass
Tool Safety100
  • No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
  • All 4 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation.Pass
  • An AI judge read all 38 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass

  • Supports UI / widget rendering.Pass
Install

How do I install the Hovercode MCP server?

Hovercode is a hosted endpoint at https://hovercode.com/mcp/, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

MCP tools · 36 exposed · ~7,508 tokens

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

Tool Tokens
build_page ~730

Build a rich, on-brand landing page from an ordered list of typed blocks, publish it, and return its live URL + its own QR code (`qr_id`; style it with the QR design args here, restyle later with update_qr_code — don't create another). This is the 'make me a page for X' tool — e.g. an event, product, restaurant, link-in-bio, or a scan-to-enter sweepstakes. Each block is {type, content}; call list_block_types first to see every type and its content shape. Blocks render in order in a centered column; a 'header' block (name/bio/photo) is the profile.

NameTypeReqDescription
background_colorstringFor the QR code this mints: Hex background color, or 'transparent'.
bg_colorstringHex page background color.
blocksarrayyesOrdered page blocks. Each is {type, content}. See list_block_types.
descriptionstringOptional SEO/description text.
domainstringCustom domain (else a default is used).
error_correctionstringFor the QR code this mints: QR error correction level: L, M, Q, or H (higher tolerates more damage but is denser).
eye_colorstringFor the QR code this mints: Hex color for the corner eyes, if different from `primary_color` (which they follow by default).
eye_stylestringFor the QR code this mints: Corner eye shape.
framestringFor the QR code this mints: Frame slug. A caption (`text`) works on any frame — set `text` without a `frame` and one that can show it is chosen automatically. Frames that show a caption: card, card-a…
frame_colorstringFor the QR code this mints: Hex color for the frame, if different from `primary_color` (which it follows by default).
has_borderbooleanFor the QR code this mints: Draw a border around the code.

publishbooleanPublish immediately (default true). false leaves it a draft.
slugstringCustom URL slug (else auto-generated).
textstringFor the QR code this mints: Caption text. Renders on any frame that supports one; if `frame` isn't also given (or the one given can't show text), a frame that can is chosen automatically.
text_colorstringHex text color.
text_secondarystringFor the QR code this mints: Secondary caption line, where the frame supports it.
titlestringyesThe page title (browser tab + SEO).
workspacestringWorkspace id. Optional when the account has one workspace; use list_workspaces to resolve otherwise.

create_folder ~98

Create a folder to organise QR codes, optionally nested under a parent. Creating a folder that already exists (same name, same parent) returns the existing one, so it's safe to call repeatedly.

NameTypeReqDescription

No examples provided.

create_form ~902

Create a form, define its fields, brand it, publish it, and return a shareable short link + QR in one step. Use for 'make me a form to collect X, give me a link and QR to share it'. The result's `share_url` is the public link and `qr_id` is the form's own dynamic QR code (image included) — never call create_qr_code or create_short_link for a form's link; pass QR design args (primary_color, eye_style, frame, logo_url, …) here to style that code in the same call. Supports on-brand styling (theme/colors/logo), a `redirect_url` after submit, conditional logic (`show_when` on a field) and branching endings (`outcomes`), and a custom domain/slug. Publishing mints a dynamic short link and QR (requires a paid plan). Notifications are a separate, paid, verified-member setting. To change a form later, use update_form.

NameTypeReqDescription
background_colorstringFor the QR code this mints: Hex background color, or 'transparent'.

create_page ~656

Create a published micro landing page (link-in-bio style) with a title and a list of links, and return its live URL (`share_url`) + its own QR code (`qr_id`; style it with the QR design args here; don't create another). Use this for 'make me a page with these links and a QR to share it'. The page is a dynamic destination you can keep; it counts toward the workspace's page limit.

Create a dynamic QR code and short link for a PDF (menus, flyers, tickets). Host the PDF by passing `pdf_url` (a link Hovercode fetches) or `pdf_base64` (the file's base64 bytes). Returns a shareable short link plus a rendered QR. Because it's dynamic you can later swap the PDF without reprinting the code. Requires a paid plan (dynamic codes).

NameTypeReqDescription
display_namestringInternal name to find this code later.
domainstringCustom short-link domain (list_workspaces shows the plan).
filenamestringName for the stored file, e.g. 'menu.pdf'.
pdf_base64stringBase64-encoded PDF bytes (data-URI prefix allowed), max 20 MB. Or use pdf_url.
pdf_urlstringURL of a PDF to fetch and host. Use this or pdf_base64.
tagsarrayLabels to attach (created if new) so you can find these later — list_qr_codes and list_short_links search by tag.

create_qr_code ~733

Create a Hovercode QR code and return its details plus a rendered PNG. Set `dynamic: true` for a code whose destination can be changed later and whose scans are tracked (requires a paid plan); static codes are free and encode the data directly. Supports full design control (colors, pattern, eye style, frames with captions, logo). Not for Hovercode forms, pages, or short links: those already have their own QR code (returned as `qr_id` / `id`) — use download_qr or update_qr_code with that id instead.

NameTypeReqDescription
background_colorstringHex background color, or 'transparent'.
display_namestringInternal name to find this code later.
dynamicbooleanEditable + tracked destination (paid). Default false.
error_correctionstringQR error correction level: L, M, Q, or H (higher tolerates more damage but is denser).
eye_colorstringHex color for the corner eyes, if different from `primary_color` (which they follow by default).
eye_stylestringCorner eye shape.
folderstringFolder id or slug to file the new code into (list_qr_codes shows each code's folder).

qr_datastringyesWhat the code encodes: a URL for qr_type 'Link', or the text for qr_type 'Text'. For 'vCard' send `vcard` instead.
qr_typestringQR content type. Default 'Link'. 'vCard' encodes a contact card from `vcard`.
tagsarrayLabels to attach (created if new) so you can find these later — list_qr_codes and list_short_links search by tag.
templatestringWorkspace template id to apply as design defaults (list_templates).
textstringCaption text. Renders on any frame that supports one; if `frame` isn't also given (or the one given can't show text), a frame that can is chosen automatically.
text_secondarystringSecondary caption line, where the frame supports it.
vcardobjectContact details for qr_type 'vCard' (use instead of qr_data). Scanning saves the contact to the phone. `dynamic: true` makes the card editable later.

create_short_link ~226

Create a tracked short link for a URL. It comes with its own QR code (same id; use download_qr). Supports a custom slug and a custom domain. The destination can be changed later with update_short_link, and clicks are tracked.

Common questions

What is the Hovercode MCP server?

Hovercode is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as com.hovercode/mcp. Create and manage QR codes, short links, landing pages, and forms in your Hovercode workspace. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://hovercode.com/mcp/).

Is the Hovercode MCP server safe to use?

Hovercode scores 84 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

What tools does the Hovercode MCP server expose?

Hovercode exposes 36 tools: list_workspaces, create_qr_code, build_page, create_form, get_analytics, and 31 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 7,508 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Does the Hovercode MCP server require authentication?

Yes. Hovercode asked us for credentials when we connected, so you will need to authorise it in your MCP client before it can do anything.

Is the Hovercode MCP server still maintained?

Hovercode is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 21 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
