EsyURL Overview

The esyURL MCP server connects AI agents to esyURL’s hosted service for creating and managing short links and QR codes. It uses a stateless Streamable HTTP endpoint with bearer-token authentication, and supports editable destinations, device or country routing, QR customization, and visit reporting. Reach for it when an agent needs to publish trackable links, keep printed QR codes current, or inspect scan and click activity without installing a local server.
