Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Official PicSee MCP server for short links, link management, click analytics, and optional OAuth.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on the maker’s server: what you ask it goes through their server.
  • The registry lists no key to fill in.

  1. Open ChatGPT on the web → Settings → Connectors (Apps)
  2. Press Create or Add (some plans need Developer mode under Advanced first)
  3. Paste the address below, give it a name and save
  4. If it asks you to sign in, sign in with the maker

  • More stars than 0% of the other 2985 servers in this category
  • Published to the registry more recently than 20% of the other 2985 servers in this category
  • Basic checks equal to or better than 100% of the other 2985 servers in this category

Compared with every active server in this category in the registry. Stars count only when the publisher owns the repo.

Common questions

Is PicSee Short Link safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (3.1.0) reached the registry 3 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

In the same category: MCP YouTube Transcript, Google Analytics MCP, BibiGPT YouTube Video Summarizer

PicSee MCP Server

The official remote Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for PicSee, a URL shortener with link management and click analytics.

Connect an AI agent to PicSee to create short links, manage existing links, and inspect click performance using natural language.

Official MCP endpoint

https://api.picsee.io/mcp
  • Transport: Streamable HTTP
  • Authentication: Anonymous or OAuth 2.1 with PKCE
  • Registry name: io.picsee/short-link
  • Official Registry: MCP Registry

Capabilities

Anonymous access

Anonymous clients can create a PicSee short link using the shared pse.is domain. Anonymous access does not expose account data, link lists, management tools, or analytics.

Signed-in access

After signing in with PicSee OAuth, available tools depend on the account's API plan:

  • Create short links using available PicSee or branded domains.
  • Check API plan status and usage.
  • List available domains, tags, and tracking tools.
  • List, delete, or recover short links.
  • View overview, daily clicks, device, referrer, and country analytics.
  • Use Advanced-plan editing, search, metadata, tracking, and audience-label features when available.

The server dynamically exposes only the tools supported by the signed-in account.

Install

Codex
codex mcp add picsee --url https://api.picsee.io/mcp

Restart Codex after installation. To sign in for account management and analytics:

codex mcp login picsee
Claude Desktop or another MCP client

Add the following Streamable HTTP server to the client's MCP configuration:

{

"mcpServers": { "picsee": { "url": "https://api.picsee.io/mcp" } } }

If a client does not support remote Streamable HTTP directly, use an MCP remote bridge supported by that client.

Example prompts

Shorten https://picsee.io and attribute the API usage to Codex.
Show my 10 most recent PicSee short links.
Show daily clicks and referrer sources for short link abc123 over the last 30 days.
Change the destination of abc123 to https://example.com/new-page.

Editing requires an eligible PicSee API plan.

Authentication

PicSee uses OAuth 2.1 authorization code flow with PKCE and Dynamic Client Registration.

  • Authorization server: https://public-api-oauth.picsee.io
  • Protected resource: https://api.picsee.io/mcp
  • Scopes: user:read, user:write

The MCP client stores the access and refresh tokens. This repository does not ask users to paste API tokens into prompts or configuration files.

Why these scopes are requested
  • user:read: Read the account's API status, domains, tags, short-link list, and analytics.
  • user:write: Create, edit, delete, and recover short links when the account plan permits those actions.

Tool availability

Access levelAvailable tools
Anonymouscreate_short_link
Signed increate_short_link, get_api_status, get_api_usage_by_external_id, get_my_domains, get_my_tags, get_my_tracking_tools, list_short_links, delete_short_link, get_link_overview, get_link_daily_clicks, get_link_platforms, get_link_referrers, get_link_regions
Advanced planSigned-in tools plus edit_short_link and get_link_audience_labels; advanced fields and search filters are also enabled

Tool availability is determined at connection time. Use your MCP client's tool inspector or tools/list to see the exact tools available to the current account.

Privacy and security

  • Never share PicSee access tokens in prompts, issues, screenshots, or logs.
  • Review the destination URL before creating or editing a short link.
  • Analytics may contain private campaign and audience information; share it only with intended recipients.
  • OAuth permissions can be revoked from your PicSee account.

See PicSee Privacy Notice and Terms of Use.

Documentation and support

When reporting an issue, include the MCP client name, operation attempted, timestamp, and sanitized error message. Do not include access tokens or private analytics data.

Development

Prerequisites:

  • Node.js 22 or later
  • pnpm
pnpm install

pnpm check pnpm dev

Before releasing, verify that the version in package.json, server.json, and the MCP initialize response is identical.
