Capabilities

What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.

Builds a database query by concatenation archive/archive-final-notice.html:255
      <select id="jur">
        <option value="UK">United Kingdom — statutory 8% + Bank of England base, plus fixed compensation</option>
  $("checks").innerHTML=checks.map(c=>`<div class="check ${c.ok?"pass":"fail"}"><span class="ic">${c.ok?"✓":"!"}</span><span>${c.txt}</span></div>`).join("");

Is this your server and something here is wrong? Tell us — corrections are free and do not require a plan.

This code can reach further than it looks

We found places where it runs commands, builds paths or queries from values it is given. None of that is a flaw by itself — it becomes one when the code changes, and code changes quietly between releases. We re-read it on every one.

Available tools 4

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

agenda
create_agenda
Create a CountLink agenda: an ordered sequence of named, timed segments (intro, talk, break, Q&A) that starts now and advances from one to the next on its own, on every screen that opens the link, with no server involved. Use this when someone describes a meeting, workshop, lesson or event as a sequence of parts with lengths — including when they give you a total and a list of topics and expect you to split it ("an hour, four topics"): do the split yourself, then pass the resulting segments here. By default it starts immediately; pass start_at for something scheduled ahead ("our workshop starts at 9:15 tomorrow") — the link works right away, showing a live countdown to the start rather than the first segment, and switches over on its own at the scheduled instant, in sync on every screen that opened it. Returns the shared link plus a run sheet with the wall-clock start and end of each segment, and an .ics calendar file (one event per segment) in structuredContent.ics — offer it if the person might want the agenda on their calendar. For a single countdown use create_timer instead.
badge
create_badge
Create a countdown badge — a small image, not an <iframe> — for places embed_on_website's iframe cannot go: a GitHub README, a forum signature, a Notion page, anywhere only plain Markdown or a bare <img> is allowed. Shows coarse time remaining (e.g. "3d 04h left", not a live ticking clock — most places that embed images fetch and cache them server-side, so a promise of live ticking would be false) and links through to the real, precise, live countdown. Returns both a Markdown snippet and an HTML snippet; use whichever the destination accepts. Always returns the image wrapped in a link to the live countdown — never ask for or produce just the bare image, since the link is what makes this a genuine attribution rather than an untethered picture.
describe
describe_timer_link
Given a countlink.app URL, say what it encodes: whether it is a running countdown or a not-yet-started setup link, its label, and how much time is left. Use it when someone pastes a CountLink link and asks what it is or when it ends.
timer
create_timer
Create a CountLink shared countdown timer and return its link. Everyone who opens the link sees the identical countdown, to the same second — no account, no sign-up, any number of viewers. Use this whenever someone wants a timer several people or several screens need to share: a classroom, an exam, a standup, a workshop, a webinar countdown, a stream overlay, or a countdown embedded on someone's own website or landing page (e.g. "10 days until launch"). By default it returns a setup link, which opens the board preloaded at the requested duration for the user to start themselves; pass start_now: true only if they want the countdown running from this moment. Whenever the result has a fixed end instant (start_now or embed_on_website), structuredContent.ics is an .ics calendar file for it — offer it if the person might want the deadline on their calendar.

CountLink — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can CountLink do?
It exposes 4 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: create_agenda, create_badge, create_timer, describe_timer_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 CountLink working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 84 of 91 checks got a reply (92.3%), average response time 177 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect CountLink?
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 CountLink need an API key?
No. CountLink completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 4 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is CountLink?
It answers our handshake in 177 ms on average, which is faster than 81% of all working MCP servers we measure. That puts it in the quick quarter of the ecosystem. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
Is CountLink open source?
We cannot say either way: written in HTML and 0 stars on GitHub, but we could not determine the licence, and without one the code is not open source by default.
