Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check Flyn every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

Available tools 8

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

link
delete_link
Permanently delete a short link. The short URL immediately stops redirecting and this cannot be undone.
get_link
Fetch one short link by its id, including destination, settings, total click count, and its conversion counters (conversionTracking, conversions, conversionValueCents).
get_link_analytics
Fetch click events for a short link, newest first. Every plan sees timestamps and total counts; country, city, device, OS, browser, and referrer detail requires Flyn Pro (fields are null on the free plan). Free plans see the last 30 days of history. Click events carry no conversion data: for conversions and total conversion value, read the link itself with get_link or list_links.
get_link_qr_code
Render a scannable QR code for an existing Flyn short link. Because the code encodes the short link rather than the destination, you can repoint the link later and every printed code follows, and each scan is counted as a click. The image is returned as a PNG you can look at. Custom colours and SVG output require Flyn Pro.
update_link
Update an existing short link. Can re-point the destination URL without changing the printed/shared short link, plus edit title, slug, tags, expiration, rotation destinations, and Pro settings. Only the provided fields are changed.
code
create_qr_code
Render a QR code for any of seven content types: a link, plain text, WiFi credentials, a v-card contact, a pre-filled email, a phone number, or a pre-filled SMS. The image is returned as a PNG you can look at. Nothing is stored, so this code is STATIC: it encodes the content directly and cannot be changed after it is printed. If the user wants a code they can repoint later, or wants to count scans, create a short link with create_short_link first and then call get_link_qr_code instead. Link, Text and WiFi work on every plan; V-card, E-mail, Call and SMS require Flyn Pro, as do custom colours and SVG output.
links
list_links
List the account's short links with pagination, search, and filtering. Returns each link's id, slug, short URL, destination, click count, and settings, plus its conversion counters: conversionTracking (whether the link carries a click id), conversions, and conversionValueCents (total value reported for those conversions, in cents, not currency converted).
short
create_short_link
Create a new Flyn short link that redirects to a destination URL. Returns the link id, slug, and full short URL. The destination is scanned with Google Safe Browsing before creation. Free accounts can create 25 links per calendar month; password protection, click limits, fallback URLs, weighted rotation, and conversion tracking require Flyn Pro.

Flyn — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Flyn do?
It exposes 8 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: create_qr_code, create_short_link, delete_link, get_link, get_link_analytics, get_link_qr_code and 2 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 →
Is Flyn 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 293 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Flyn?
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 Flyn need an API key?
No. Flyn completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 8 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Flyn?
It answers our handshake in 293 ms on average, which is faster than 58% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
