This one has been quiet for a while

Quiet is not dead — but it is worth knowing when it wakes up, or when someone else takes it over. We watch the repository and tell you either way.

MiniURL — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can MiniURL do?

It exposes 24 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: add_domain, authenticate_token, bulk_create_links, check_alias, clear_authentication, create_guest_token and 18 more. 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 →

What is MiniURL mostly used for?

Its tools cluster around link, tag and verify. That is what this server is built to work with — the grouping comes from the actual tool names, not from a category we assigned.

Is MiniURL working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 597 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

Is MiniURL still maintained?

The linked repository no longer exists on GitHub — it was deleted or made private. We show this because it changes what you can expect: an unmaintained server may keep answering for months and then stop without warning.

How do I connect MiniURL?

Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.

Does MiniURL need an API key?

No. MiniURL completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 24 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is MiniURL?

It answers our handshake in 597 ms on average, which is faster than 21% of all working MCP servers we measure. That is on the slow side — worth knowing if the tool sits inside an interactive loop. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
