README

An MCP server for QR Forge — create and manage trackable QR codes (links, files, Wi-Fi, WhatsApp, phone, email) straight from an AI agent. It's a thin client over the public QR Forge REST API; it stores nothing and authenticates with your QR Forge API token.

Get a token at https://qrforge.work/api/keys.

Two ways to use it

1. Local (stdio) — install and run on your machine

uvx qrforge-mcp            # or: pipx install qrforge-mcp

Add it to your MCP client (Claude Desktop / Claude Code) — claude_desktop_config.json or .mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "qrforge": {
      "command": "qrforge-mcp",
      "env": { "QRFORGE_API_TOKEN": "your-token-here" }
    }
  }
}

Or with Claude Code's CLI:

claude mcp add qrforge --env QRFORGE_API_TOKEN=your-token-here -- qrforge-mcp

Environment variables:

Var Required Default Purpose
QRFORGE_API_TOKEN yes (local) Your QR Forge API token
QRFORGE_API_URL no https://qrforge.work API base URL

2. Hosted — connect to our server, no install

The hosted server runs at https://mcp.qrforge.work/mcp/. Pass your token in the X-QRForge-Token header:

claude mcp add --transport http qrforge https://mcp.qrforge.work/mcp/ \
  --header "X-QRForge-Token: your-token-here"

The hosted server sits behind Cloudflare, which strips the Authorization header on streaming requests — so use X-QRForge-Token for the hosted endpoint. (Authorization: Bearer <token> still works for local/self-hosted instances.)

The hosted server is stateless and multi-user: it forwards each request's token to the API and never stores it.

Tools

  • Identity/tokens: whoami, list_api_tokens, create_api_token, revoke_api_token
  • Discovery: list_qr_types, list_qr_styles
  • Render (no save): render_qr
  • Create: create_url_qrcode, create_whatsapp_qrcode, create_wifi_qrcode, create_phone_qrcode, create_email_qrcode, create_file_qrcode
  • Manage: list_qrcodes, get_qrcode, update_qrcode, delete_qrcode
  • Images: get_qrcode_png, get_qrcode_svg
  • Files/logo: download_qrcode_file, replace_qrcode_file, set_qrcode_logo, remove_qrcode_logo
  • Analytics: get_qrcode_history, get_qrcode_scans

style (optional, on create/render/update) is an object with keys module_drawer (square|rounded|circle|gapped|vertical_bars|horizontal_bars), fill_type (solid|radial|horizontal|vertical), fill_color, fill_color_2, back_color (hex).

File tools accept the file via file_path (local), file_url (server downloads it), or file_base64 — up to 50 MB.

Develop

pip install -e ".[dev]"
pytest -q

Run the hosted server locally:

qrforge-mcp --http --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8001     # streamable-HTTP at /mcp/
# or stdio:
QRFORGE_API_TOKEN=... qrforge-mcp
