Core

  • Pass
    Reachable

    Latest probe returned HTTP 200 in 57 ms.

  • Pass
    Valid handshake

    protocolVersion 2025-11-25, serverInfo.name tinyurl-mcp.

  • Pass
    Lists tools

    tools/list returned 8 tools.

  • Pass
    Current protocol

    Negotiated 2025-11-25. The bar is 2025-06-18 or newer.

  • Pass
    HTTPS

    The endpoint URL is https.

Performance

  • Not measured
    Fast (p50)

    Median latency 57 ms over 1 samples in 7 days. The bar is 1000 ms. Need at least 5 samples.

  • Not measured
    Consistent (p95)

    95th percentile 57 ms over 1 samples in 7 days. The bar is 3000 ms. Need at least 20 samples.

  • Not measured
    Reliable (uptime)

    1 of 1 attempts returned a tool list in 30 days (100%). The bar is 99%. Need at least 30 samples.

  • Not measured
    Stable tool list

    Fewer than two successful probes in 30 days, so tool-list stability is not measured.

Access

  • Pass
    Open access

    tools/list succeeded with no credential, and the record declares none.

  • Not measured
    Standard auth

    Auth is not required, so the OAuth metadata check does not apply.

  • Not measured
    Free tier cited

    No publisher quote has been checked.

Tools

  • Pass
    Tools described

    Every tool description is at least 20 characters.

  • Pass
    Valid input schemas

    Every inputSchema is a JSON Schema object.

  • Pass
    Parameters documented

    37 of 37 parameters have a description (100%). The bar is 80%.

  • Pass
    Safety hints

    Every tool sets readOnlyHint or destructiveHint.

Publisher

  • Pass
    Verified namespace

    Listed in the Official MCP Registry.

  • Pass
    Website matches publisher

    The website host matches the reverse-domain namespace.

  • Pass
    Source repo linked

    A repository URL is on file.

  • Not measured
    Repo owner matches

    This namespace is not an io.github login, so the owner comparison does not apply.

  • Pass
    Recently updated

Capabilities

Tools 8

tinyurl_change_destination

WRITE: point an existing short link at a new destination. DESTRUCTIVE: everyone who opens the short link is sent to the new URL from now on and the old destination is overwritten. The new URL must be http(s). PATCH /change.

Discovered
tinyurl_count_links

How many short links the account has (active or archived), optionally within a creation date range or filtered by alias or tag. GET /urls/{type}/count.

Discovered
tinyurl_create_link

WRITE: create ONE new short link for an http(s) destination URL. Optional custom alias (5-30 characters on tinyurl.com), domain (tinyurl.com or a branded domain), tags, expiry and description. Not idempotent: calling it again without an alias creates another link. Returns the new tiny_url. POST /create.

Discovered
tinyurl_get_analytics

Aggregated click analytics for the account, or for one link (alias) or one tag, from a start date. report: timeline (clicks over time; interval minute/hour/day/week/month), general (browsers, operating systems, devices), weekday and hour (popularity), top_sources (referrers), top_languages, location (countries, or the regions of one country via region = ISO 3166 alpha-2 code). Which reports are available depends on the account's TinyURL plan. Visitor-level raw logs are not exposed. GET /analytics/*.

Discovered
tinyurl_get_link

Details of one short link: destination URL, tiny_url, tags, created/expires dates, archived/deleted flags, analytics settings, total hits and owner. GET /alias/{domain}/{alias}.

Discovered
tinyurl_list_links

List the account's short links (type available = active, archived = archived), optionally created within a date range or filtered by alias or tag. The TinyURL API does not page this list: at most `limit` items (default 50, max 200) are returned together with the total, so narrow with from/to/search when truncated is true. GET /urls/{type}.

Discovered
tinyurl_set_link_archived

WRITE: archive an active short link (archived = true) or restore an archived one (archived = false). Archiving moves the link to the archived list; nothing is deleted and it can be restored. The API's archive endpoint is a toggle, so the link's current state is read first and nothing is changed when it already matches, and the state afterwards is checked. Do not run two archive calls for the same link at once. GET /alias/{domain}/{alias}, then PATCH /archive.

Discovered
tinyurl_update_link

WRITE: change an existing short link's alias, tags, expiry, description or click-analytics switch. At least one new_* field is required. DESTRUCTIVE for what it replaces: new_tags REPLACES all existing tags, and renaming the alias (new_alias) makes the old short URL stop working. The destination URL is changed with tinyurl_change_destination. PATCH /update.
