A3.9/5.0

Scored across 9 tools

Disambiguation4/5

Most tools have clearly distinct purposes, especially shorten_url vs lookup_url and create_tracker vs get_stats_url. The main overlap is between generate_qr and make_qr_image, though the descriptions explicitly distinguish trackable short-link QR codes from plain QR images. watch_printed_links also partially overlaps with get_watch_report by returning initial results, but the boundary is still understandable.

Naming Consistency4/5

Eight of nine tools follow a clear verb_noun convention: create_tracker, generate_qr, get_stats_url, get_watch_report, lookup_url, make_qr_image, shorten_url, watch_printed_links. The sole exception is auth, which is a short noun/verb name rather than following the verb_noun pattern. Overall the convention is predictable and readable.

Tool Count5/5

Nine tools is well within the ideal range and each tool covers a distinct capability: authentication, short links, QR codes, trackers, stats lookup, and printed-link watching. The surface feels scoped to the service without excessive fragmentation.

Completeness3/5

Core creation and lookup workflows are covered, including auth, shortening, QR generation, tracker creation, stats URL retrieval, and printed-link watching. However, lifecycle operations are notably missing: there is no tool to list, update, delete, or otherwise manage short links, trackers, or existing watches through the MCP server. Management is deferred to returned web URLs, which agents may not be able to operate directly.

Available Tools

9 tools
authSign in to b59.linkAInspect

Sign in to b59.link to own what you create (and for 300 requests/minute on the REST API). Pass api_key to get a session key straight away. Or pass email to have a 6-digit code emailed, then call again with email and otp to get a session key (new emails are signed up and also get their api_key). Send the session key as the HTTP header 'Authorization: Bearer <session_key>'.

Inputs: otp, email, api_key.

create_trackerCreate a page-view trackerAInspect

Create a free page-view tracker for a website. Returns the tag image URL and ready-to-paste snippets for the site's pages, plus the stats URL where views, visitors, pages and referrers are shown. When signed in, the tracker belongs to the account; otherwise keep the manage_token to claim it later.

Inputs: site_url (required), name.

generate_qrMake a tracked QR codeA
Idempotent
Inspect

Generate a trackable QR code for a URL. Creates a b59.link short URL at the same time so scans are counted. Returns the short URL, a stats URL, and the QR code as a base64-encoded PNG.

Inputs: url (required).

get_stats_urlFind a stats pageA
Read-onlyIdempotent
Inspect

Get the stats page URL for anything b59.link tracks: a slug or short URL, the destination URL of a short link or QR code, a tracker id or tag URL, or any page URL / domain that has a tracker tag. Stats themselves are viewed on b59.link; this returns where.

Inputs: identifier (required).

get_watch_reportGet a printed-link watch reportA
Read-onlyIdempotent
Inspect

Get the state of every link in a printed-link watch: working, dead, moved, deactivated page, redirect changed or certificate expiring, what changed since the first check, the latest redirect chain and the last 30 days.

Inputs: slug (required).

lookup_urlLook up an existing short linkA
Read-onlyIdempotent
Inspect

Check whether a URL already has a b59.link short URL. Handles variations: http/https, www prefix, trailing slash. Returns the existing short URL and QR code if found.

Inputs: url (required).

make_qr_imageMake a QR code imageA
Read-onlyIdempotent
Inspect

Make a QR code image for any text (URL, Wi-Fi string, phone, email, plain text) without creating a short link. Supports colors, size and SVG. Returns the image plus a permanent image URL that can be embedded with . Use generate_qr instead when scans should be counted.

Inputs: data (required), bg, fg, size, +1 more.

shorten_urlShorten a URLA
Idempotent
Inspect

Shorten a long URL and get a memorable b59.link short URL. Optionally specify a custom slug. Returns the short URL and a stats URL.

Inputs: url (required), slug.

watch_printed_linksWatch printed linksAInspect

Watch up to 25 printed links (QR codes on menus, short links on flyers, posters, packaging, cards). Checks each one now and then once a day, and records the whole redirect chain. A link is flagged when it dies (fails twice, 6 hours apart), lands somewhere new, lands on a QR or short-link vendor's 'deactivated' page or a parked domain, changes how it redirects, or its certificate expires within 14 days. Returns the first results, page_url (a result page to hand to the person; shareable) and manage_url (private: edit, re-check, delete). No key needed.

Inputs: links (required), email.
