Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check L1NK every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

update_link

Change where a link points, set a new expiry (Pro) or remove its expiry. The short code stays the same.

Click analytics for the whole account: totals, bots, daily series and top links. The plan caps how far back you can look (Free 30 days, Pro 365).

L1NK — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can L1NK do?

It exposes 6 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: create_link, delete_link, get_analytics, get_link, list_links, update_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 L1NK 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 594 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect L1NK?

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 L1NK need an API key?

No. L1NK completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 6 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is L1NK?

It answers our handshake in 594 ms on average, which is faster than 22% 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.
