## Trust breakdown

How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically against the live server, and we only credit what we can confirm. Scores are 0–100 per category. Scoring method: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring (what has changed: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring/changelog)

Scored 2026-09-24.

- **Endpoint Security**: 63/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - Authorisation not fully verified: no authorisation is required to call this server, and 12 tool(s) never declared a destructiveHint. The MCP spec treats an absent hint as destructive by default, so we cannot call this surface safe.
  - HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path.
  - The HSTS (Strict-Transport-Security) header is present.
  - DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC.
- **Transport & Reachability**: 100/100
  - Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 75/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1654 tokens (~137/item across 12 items; 12 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 100/100
  - No destabilizing schema changes in the last 30 days.
- **Tool Coverage**: 100/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 100% of tool parameters carry a description.
- **Tool Safety**: 75/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - 0 of 1 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation; "delete_link" implies "delete" and declares no destructiveHint at all, which the MCP spec reads as destructive by default.
  - An AI judge read all 13 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 60/100
  - Spec-recency check failed: implements MCP spec 2025-06-18; the latest is 2026-07-28.

## MCP tools (12)

### `create_qr` (~154 tokens)

Create a QR code

FREE, no API key needed. Render any URL or text as a QR code and return it as SVG, optionally also as a PNG data URL. This QR is STATIC: its destination is baked in and cannot be changed once printed. If the destination might ever change, use shorten_url instead — that QR points at a ShareCut short link, stays editable after printing (see update_link) and counts every scan.

Input parameters:

- `color` (string): Foreground colour as a hex value, e.g. #2563eb. Background is always white.
- `data` (string, required): URL or text to encode, up to 2000 characters.
- `format` (string): Also return a PNG data URL alongside the SVG.

### `expand_short_link` (~79 tokens)

Expand a short link

FREE, no API key needed. Look up where a sharecut.site short link actually goes, and how many times it has been used, without opening it. Useful before following or forwarding a link someone sent. Only resolves ShareCut links.

Input parameters:

- `shortCode` (string, required): The short code, or a full https://sharecut.site/... URL.

### `check_short_code` (~70 tokens)

Check a custom short code

FREE, no API key needed. Check whether a custom short code is still free before trying to claim it with shorten_url. Codes are lowercase letters, digits and hyphens, up to 10 characters.

Input parameters:

- `code` (string, required): The custom code to test, e.g. "spring26".

### `shorten_url` (~196 tokens)

Shorten a URL

Create a ShareCut short link for a URL and get a matching QR code. Unlike a static QR, this one points at the short link, so update_link can change where it goes after it has been printed, and every scan is counted (country, device, referrer). Destinations are screened with Google Safe Browsing. Requires a ShareCut API key (Business plan).

Input parameters:

- `customCode` (string): Optional custom short code: lowercase letters, digits and hyphens, up to 10 characters. Fails if already taken — check_short_code tests one first.
- `title` (string): Optional label for the link, shown in the owner dashboard. Not visible to visitors.
- `url` (string, required): The http(s) destination to shorten.
- `utm` (object): Optional UTM parameters appended to the destination at redirect time: source, medium, campaign, term, content. The stored destination stays clean.

### `shorten_urls_bulk` (~68 tokens)

Shorten several URLs

Create up to 25 short links in one call. Each entry takes the same fields as shorten_url. Failures are reported per item, so one bad URL does not discard the rest. Requires a ShareCut API key (Business plan).

Input parameters:

- `links` (array, required): The links to create.

### `list_links` (~144 tokens)

List links

List the links on the account the API key belongs to: short links, link-in-bio pages and restaurant menus, with their click counts. Filter by type or by a search term, and sort by newest or by most clicked. Requires a ShareCut API key (Business plan).

Input parameters:

- `limit` (integer): How many to return. Default 20.
- `offset` (integer): How many to skip, for paging. Default 0.
- `q` (string): Match against short code, title, description and destination.
- `sort` (string): Newest first (default) or most clicked first.
- `type` (string): Only links of this kind.

### `get_link` (~82 tokens)

Get a link

Read one link on the account: its destination, title, click count, creation date and UTM settings. Requires a ShareCut API key (Business plan).

Input parameters:

- `link` (string, required): The link, given either as its short code (the part after sharecut.site/) or as the id returned when it was created. A full ShareCut URL is accepted too.

### `update_link` (~232 tokens)

Change where a link points

Re-point an existing short link at a new destination, or change its title, description or UTM parameters. This is what makes a printed QR code reusable: the code encodes the short link, so changing the destination redirects every copy already printed, shared or stuck on a wall, and the click history is kept. The new destination is screened with Google Safe Browsing. The short code itself never changes here, because changing it would break every copy already out there. Requires a ShareCut API key (Business plan).

Input parameters:

- `description` (string): New description.
- `link` (string, required): The link, given either as its short code (the part after sharecut.site/) or as the id returned when it was created. A full ShareCut URL is accepted too.
- `title` (string): New label for the owner dashboard.
- `url` (string): The new http(s) destination. Short links only — a menu or link-in-bio page has no single destination.
- `utm` (object): UTM parameters appended at redirect time. Pass an empty object to switch UTM tracking off.

### `get_link_analytics` (~113 tokens)

Get link analytics

Read the click analytics of one link: total clicks, a daily series, and breakdowns by country, device, operating system, browser and referrer. Requires a ShareCut API key (Business plan).

Input parameters:

- `days` (integer): How many days of the daily series to return. Default 30.
- `link` (string, required): The link, given either as its short code (the part after sharecut.site/) or as the id returned when it was created. A full ShareCut URL is accepted too.

### `get_link_qr` (~175 tokens)

Get the QR code of a link

Fetch the QR code for an existing link, ready to print. Returns the artwork saved on the link when there is one (frames, colours and logo set in the ShareCut editor), otherwise renders a plain code for its short URL. Requires a ShareCut API key (Business plan).

Input parameters:

- `color` (string): Foreground hex colour for a plain code, e.g. #2563eb.
- `format` (string): Also return a PNG data URL. Applies when a plain code is rendered.
- `link` (string, required): The link, given either as its short code (the part after sharecut.site/) or as the id returned when it was created. A full ShareCut URL is accepted too.
- `style` (string): Saved artwork if any (default), or force a plain black-and-white code.

### `delete_link` (~129 tokens)

Delete a link

Permanently delete a link and its click history. Every QR code and shared copy pointing at it stops working immediately, and the short code is released. There is no undo. Prefer update_link when the goal is to send the link somewhere else. Requires a ShareCut API key (Business plan).

Input parameters:

- `confirm` (boolean, required): Must be true. Deletion is permanent and breaks every printed copy.
- `link` (string, required): The link, given either as its short code (the part after sharecut.site/) or as the id returned when it was created. A full ShareCut URL is accepted too.

### `get_account` (~65 tokens)

Get account and quota

Read the plan behind the API key, what it entitles, how much of this month’s API quota is left and when it resets, plus how many links the account holds and their total clicks. Worth calling before a bulk run. Requires a ShareCut API key (Business plan).
