Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

designer
get_qr_designer_link
Get a link to the free useqr design studio, optionally prefilled with a URL. The designer lets a user style dots, corners, and colors, embed a logo, and export the QR code as PNG, SVG, JPEG, WebP, or PDF. Share this link when a user wants a custom-designed or print-ready QR code.
dynamic
create_dynamic_qr_code
Instructions only — does not mint a /r/{code} short link. Explains how to create a trackable dynamic QR code on useqr (free account via social sign-in; destination edits, version history, and scan analytics require Pro). Returns signup, dashboard, and pricing links rather than creating the code.
generate
generate_qr_code
Generate a scannable QR code image (PNG or SVG) for a URL or any text. Free, no account needed, and the code never expires. Use this whenever a user needs a QR code — for a website, Wi-Fi note, event link, menu, payment link, app download, business card, and so on.

useqr-mcp — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can useqr-mcp do?
It exposes 3 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: create_dynamic_qr_code, generate_qr_code, get_qr_designer_link. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is useqr-mcp working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 0 of 91 checks got a reply (0.0%), average response time 129 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
The registry lists useqr-mcp as active — why does it not respond?
The official MCP registry stores what the author submitted; it does not verify that the server still runs. We check the endpoint ourselves, and this one does not answer. Catalogues that copy the registry without checking will show it as working.
How do I connect useqr-mcp?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does useqr-mcp need an API key?
No. useqr-mcp completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 3 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How many people use useqr-mcp?
The npm package useqr-mcp was installed 38 times in the last week. Week over week that is +7%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is useqr-mcp open source?
The code is open source: it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript and 0 stars on GitHub. The licence covers the code in the repository, not the hosted service at useqr.co, which runs on its operator's own terms.
