Generate a custom QR code in PNG or SVG format.
Generate custom QR codes. Free Tier: Basic URL/Text PNG. Paid Tier ($0.001 USD via x402): Vector SVG, custom styling (dotStyle, primaryColor, logoUrl), or premium QR types (wifi, vcard, crypto, dbl).
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| url | No | The URL or text to encode in the QR code. Optional if using other tab types. | |
| format | No | Output format. 'png' is free. 'svg' vector output requires x402 micropayment ($0.001). | png |
| dblCode | No | Dragon Ball Legends code. Required if activeTab is 'dbl'. Requires x402 micropayment ($0.001). | |
| logoUrl | No | Image URL or base64 data URL to embed in the center of the QR code. Requires x402 micropayment ($0.001). | |

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden of disclosure. It clearly reveals the x402 micropayment requirement for premium features, which is a crucial behavioral trait. It does not cover failure modes or error handling, but the core cost implication is transparently stated.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is two sentences long, front-loaded with the primary purpose, and efficiently conveys the free/paid split. Every word earns its place, making it highly concise and well-structured.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the complexity of 8 parameters and no output schema, the description does a good job of summarizing the core free/paid options. However, it omits the 'json' output format present in the schema and does not mention the optionality or activeTab-driven payload types. Nonetheless, the schema covers most details, so the description is reasonably complete.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 88%, so the input schema already documents almost all parameters. The description mentions dotStyle, primaryColor, and logoUrl as custom styling, but these details are already in the schema descriptions. No added semantic meaning beyond what the schema provides.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states 'Generate custom QR codes' with a specific verb and resource. It distinguishes free vs paid tiers, which further clarifies the tool's scope. With no sibling tools to confuse, this is a strong purpose statement.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description provides explicit context for when to use free vs paid features (Free Tier: Basic URL/Text PNG; Paid Tier: $0.001 via x402). It does not state exclusions or alternatives, but there are no sibling tools, so the guidance is sufficient for selecting the right options.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

Open the connector listing, choose Claim ownership, and sign in to Glama.
Complete one verification method:
GitHub identity — fastest for official registry listings. For a namespace such as io.github.alice/server, link the matching GitHub user, then choose Claim with GitHub. An organization namespace such as io.github.acme/server also needs that organization to have installed the Glama AI GitHub App and approved its permissions, because GitHub discloses organization membership only to apps it has installed. Use HTTP or DNS when it has not.
HTTP challenge — works when you can deploy a public file. Generate a token, publish the exact JSON Glama shows at /.well-known/glama.json on the same origin as the connector, then choose Check HTTP challenge.
DNS challenge — works when you control DNS but cannot change the server. Generate a token, create the exact TXT record Glama shows, wait for it to propagate, then choose Check DNS challenge.
After verification, Glama sends a confirmation email and gives you access to listing details, thumbnails, health checks, and analytics. Keep the HTTP file or DNS record in place: Glama periodically checks it and ownership remains verified while the token is discoverable.
The HTTP ownership file has this structure:
{
"$schema": "https://glama.ai/mcp/schemas/connector.json",
"claim": "glama_claim_..."
}Claim tokens are opaque, stable, and bound to the signed-in Glama account. They contain no email address or other personal information. If Glama can no longer discover a verified HTTP or DNS token, it starts a seven-day grace period before removing claim-based access. Restore the same token during that period to keep ownership verified. Never publish an email address, Glama session token, GitHub token, or connector credential as ownership proof.
If verification fails, confirm that you copied the current token exactly. The HTTP file must be public, return valid JSON with a successful HTTP response, and stay on the connector's origin. DNS changes may need more time to propagate. A claim cannot transfer to a different origin or hostname: if the connector target changes, Glama starts the grace period and the new target must be claimed separately after the previous claim is released.
For a connector linked to the official MCP Registry, registry updates continue to replace its name, description, and URL by default. After claiming, open Manage connector and enable Use Glama listing details as the source of truth if edits made on Glama should be preserved. Categories and thumbnails are always managed on Glama; registry linkage and technical connection settings continue to sync.

The connector status is unhealthy when Glama is unable to successfully connect to the server. This can happen for several reasons:
The server is experiencing an outage
The URL of the server is wrong
Credentials required to access the server are missing or invalid
If you are the owner of this MCP connector and would like to make modifications to the listing, including providing test credentials for accessing the server, please contact support@glama.ai.

Add one secure layer between your agents and this server.
With only one tool, there is no possibility of confusion between tools. The tool's name and description clearly indicate its purpose of generating QR codes.
The single tool uses a clear verb_noun convention (generate_qr_code), which is descriptive and consistent. There are no other names to create inconsistencies.
The server has a focused purpose and one tool fully covers it. While one tool is on the low end of the typical range, it is reasonable for a simple QR generator and does not feel excessive or inadequate.
The tool supports basic and premium QR generation, custom styling, and multiple QR types, covering the full scope of the domain. There are no obvious missing operations that would impede a user's workflow.
