Documentation Overview

ShortURLMCP

PyPI version PyPI downloads Python 3.10+ License: MIT MCP

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for URL shortening using Short URL API through the AceDataCloud API.

Create short, shareable URLs directly from Claude, VS Code, or any MCP-compatible client.

Features

  • URL Shortening - Convert long URLs into short, shareable links
  • Batch Shortening - Shorten multiple URLs at once (up to 10 per batch)
  • Free Service - Zero credit consumption per request
  • Permanent Links - Short URLs never expire
  • surl.id Domain - Short URLs use the clean surl.id domain
  • Bearer Auth - Secure API access with token authentication

Tool Reference

ToolDescription
shorturl_createCreate a short URL from a long URL.
shorturl_batch_createCreate short URLs for multiple long URLs in a single batch.
shorturl_get_usage_guideGet a comprehensive guide for using the ShortURL tools.
shorturl_get_api_infoGet information about the ShortURL API service.

Quick Start

1. Get Your API Token

  1. Sign up at AceDataCloud Platform
  2. Go to the API documentation page
  3. Click "Acquire" to get your API token
  4. Copy the token for use below

2. Use the Hosted Server (Recommended)

AceDataCloud hosts a managed MCP server β€” no local installation required.

Endpoint: https://shorturl.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp

All requests require a Bearer token. Use the API token from Step 1.

Claude.ai

Connect directly on Claude.ai with OAuth β€” no API token needed:

  1. Go to Claude.ai Settings β†’ Integrations β†’ Add More
  2. Enter the server URL: https://shorturl.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp
  3. Complete the OAuth login flow
  4. Start using the tools in your conversation

Claude Desktop

Add to your config (~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json on macOS):

config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "shorturl": {
      "type": "streamable-http",
      "url": "https://shorturl.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN"
      }
    }
  }
}

Cursor / Windsurf

Add to your MCP config (.cursor/mcp.json or .windsurf/mcp.json):

config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "shorturl": {
      "type": "streamable-http",
      "url": "https://shorturl.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN"
      }
    }
  }
}

VS Code (Copilot)

Add to your VS Code MCP config (.vscode/mcp.json):

config.json
{
  "servers": {
    "shorturl": {
      "type": "streamable-http",
      "url": "https://shorturl.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN"
      }
    }
  }
}

Or install the Ace Data Cloud MCP extension for VS Code, which registers the hosted MCP servers with one-click setup.

JetBrains IDEs

  -h "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN"

Or add to your project's .mcp.json:

config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "shorturl": {
      "type": "streamable-http",
      "url": "https://shorturl.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN"
      }
    }
  }
}

Cline

Zed

Add to Zed's settings (~/.config/zed/settings.json):

config.json
{
  "language_models": {

cURL Test

bash
# Health check (no auth required)
curl https://shorturl.mcp.acedata.cloud/health

# MCP initialize
curl -X POST https://shorturl.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Accept: application/json" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"initialize","params":{"protocolVersion":"2025-03-26","capabilities":{},"clientInfo":{"name":"test","version":"1.0"}}}'

3. Or Run Locally (Alternative)

If you prefer to run the server on your own machine:

server.ts
# Install from PyPI
pip install mcp-shorturl
# or
uvx mcp-shorturl

# Set your API token
export ACEDATACLOUD_API_TOKEN="your_token_here"

# Run (stdio mode for Claude Desktop / local clients)
mcp-shorturl

# Run (HTTP mode for remote access)
mcp-shorturl --transport http --port 8000

Claude Desktop (Local)

config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "shorturl": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["mcp-shorturl"],
      "env": {
        "ACEDATACLOUD_API_TOKEN": "your_token_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Docker (Self-Hosting)

Terminal
docker pull ghcr.io/acedatacloud/mcp-shorturl:latest
docker run -p 8000:8000 ghcr.io/acedatacloud/mcp-shorturl:latest

Clients connect with their own Bearer token β€” the server extracts the token from each request's Authorization header.
