Developer Toolkit MCP

Five high-frequency developer utilities as MCP tools — UUID generation, timestamp conversion (Beijing time), unit conversion, JSON formatting/validation, and QR-code generation. Everything runs locally; four of the five tools use only the Python standard library.

• Try it in 30 seconds: a free public MCP endpoint is already running — just paste the URL into your MCP client (no install, no API key).

• Or self-host: a tiny FastMCP server, no external API calls, deterministic and privacy-safe.

⚡ Use the hosted endpoint (no setup)

https://mcp.pianam.cn/devtools-mcp/mcp

Transport: Streamable HTTP (MCP 2025-03-26 compatible). No authentication required.

🔌 Client configuration

Add this to your MCP client's mcpServers configuration (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline, Cherry Studio, etc.):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "devtools": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.pianam.cn/devtools-mcp/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Clients that do not accept "type": "http" accept the same entry with just "url".

🧰 Tools

Examples

• "生成 5 个 UUID" / "给域名 example.com 生成一个 v5 UUID"

• "把时间戳 1788000000 转成北京时间" / "2026-10-01 09:00 的 Unix 时间戳是多少"

• "10 英里等于多少公里" / "98.6 华氏度转摄氏度" / "1 GB 等于多少 MB"

• "帮我美化这段 JSON 并检查有没有语法错误"

• "把 https://example.com 生成二维码"

📡 Dependencies & privacy

• generate_uuid, convert_timestamp, convert_unit, format_json use only the Python standard library.

• generate_qr uses the pure-Python qrcode package with its SVG path image factory — SVG output needs no Pillow/native deps. PNG output is optional and requires Pillow.

• Zero network calls, zero API keys — fully deterministic and safe for sensitive data.

🐢 Self-hosting

git clone https://github.com/boy-373/devtools-mcp.git
cd devtools-mcp
pip install -r requirements.txt
python server.py
# listens on 127.0.0.1:8000 by default; override with:
#   MCP_HOST=0.0.0.0 MCP_PORT=9000 python server.py
# behind a reverse proxy, allow your public hostname:
#   MCP_ALLOWED_HOSTS="your-domain.com,your-domain.com:*" python server.py

Then point your MCP client at http://127.0.0.1:8000/mcp.

With uv:

uv venv && uv pip install -r requirements.txt
uv run python server.py

🇨🇳 中文说明

开发者工具包 MCP：五个高频小工具 —— UUID 生成（v4/v5）、时间戳双向转换（统一北京时间 UTC+8）、单位换算（长度/重量/温度/数据存储）、JSON 美化/压缩/校验（带错误定位）、二维码生成（默认矢量 SVG，可选 PNG）。

在线直连（免费、无需 Key）：https://mcp.pianam.cn/devtools-mcp/mcp

前四个工具仅用 Python 标准库；二维码用纯 Python 的 qrcode 生成 SVG（PNG 才需 Pillow）。全程无任何网络请求与外部 API，确定性、隐私安全。
