From the repository
Connect your MCP client to the endpoint https://openqr.uk/mcp. Tools include generate_qr, create_dynamic_qr, update_dynamic_qr, list_dynamic_qr, delete_dynamic_qr, get_scans, and folder/theme management. For the REST API, refer to the documentation at https://openqr.uk/api.
generate_qr
Generate a static QR code from any text/URL. Returns a PNG image (or SVG markup). Requires an OpenQR API key.
create_dynamic_qr
Create an editable (dynamic) QR code whose destination you can change later without reprinting. Requires an OpenQR API key.
update_dynamic_qr
Edit a dynamic QR code: change its destination, label, custom short link (slug), tags or folder. Pass only the fields you want to change. Requires an OpenQR API key.
get_dynamic_qr
Get the full details of one of your QR codes by id: destination, short link, label, type, tags, folder, status and created date. Requires an OpenQR API key.
get_scans
Get scan statistics for a dynamic QR code. Requires an OpenQR API key.
list_dynamic_qr
List your dynamic (editable) QR codes — id, short URL, destination, label and status. Requires an OpenQR API key.
delete_dynamic_qr
Permanently delete a dynamic QR code. The short link stops working. Requires an OpenQR API key.
bulk_create_dynamic_qr
Create up to 200 dynamic QR codes at once. Requires an OpenQR API key.
list_folders
List your folders (id and name). Requires an OpenQR API key.
create_folder
Create a folder to organise codes. Requires an OpenQR API key.
delete_folder
Delete a folder (its codes are un-filed, not deleted). Requires an OpenQR API key.
list_themes
List your saved style themes (id, name) — apply one by passing its id or name as `theme` to generate/create/update tools. Requires an OpenQR API key.
create_theme
Save a reusable style theme. `style` is a QR style object (fgColor, bgColor, dotType, cornerSquareType, etc.). Requires an OpenQR API key.
delete_theme
Delete a saved theme. Codes already styled with it keep their look. Requires an OpenQR API key.
get_subdomain
Show the branded subdomain on this account ({name}.oqr.to). Reports whether it is currently suspended — a suspended subdomain redirects to the plain short link instead of serving, which happens when a Pro plan lapses. Requires an OpenQR API key.
set_subdomain
Claim or change the branded subdomain so codes also resolve at {name}.oqr.to. Pro only. Codes keep working on the plain short link either way, so changing this never breaks anything already printed. Requires an OpenQR API key.
clear_subdomain
Release the branded subdomain. Codes stay live on the plain short link; only the {name}.oqr.to form stops resolving. The name becomes claimable by someone else. Requires an OpenQR API key.
