What it does
This server provides URL shortening through the kool.ink service, converting long URLs into short kool.ink links. It is for developers who need to generate shortened URLs programmatically through an MCP interface without authentication or API keys.
- Generate shortened URLs from within Claude or other MCP clients to include in messages or documents.
- Create compact, shareable links from long URLs during development or content work.
- Batch process multiple URLs to create shortened versions for distribution or logging.

Before you enable it
An MCP server runs with whatever access you give it. Start with a development account rather than production, and check which tools the server exposes before you let an agent call them unattended.
