What it can do

Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 6, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.

  • dub_list_links

    List short links, filtered by domain, tag, folder or a text search. Dub: GET /links.

  • dub_get_link

    Fetch a single link by its id, its external id, or its domain plus key. Dub: GET /links/info.

  • dub_count_links

    Count links matching a filter, optionally grouped by domain, tag or folder. Cheaper than listing when you only need totals. Dub: GET /links/count.

  • dub_get_analytics

    Get aggregated click, lead and sale analytics, grouped by a dimension such as country, device, referer or top links. The main reporting read. Dub: GET /analytics.

  • dub_list_events

    List individual click, lead and sale events rather than aggregates — the row-level detail behind the analytics. Dub: GET /events.

  • dub_list_customers

    List the customers Dub has attributed to links, by email, external id or link. Dub: GET /customers.

  • dub_get_customer

    Fetch a single customer with their attribution. Dub: GET /customers/{id}.

  • dub_list_tags

    List the tags available for organising links. Dub: GET /tags.

  • dub_list_folders

    List link folders and their access levels. Dub: GET /folders.

  • dub_list_domains

    List the short domains configured on the workspace. Dub: GET /domains.

  • dub_list_partners

    List the partners (affiliates) in the programme, by status, country or email. Dub: GET /partners.

  • dub_get_partner_analytics

    Get analytics for the partner programme — clicks, leads, sales and revenue per partner. Dub: GET /partners/analytics.

  • dub_list_partner_applications

    List pending applications to join the partner programme. Dub: GET /partners/applications.

  • dub_list_commissions

    List partner commissions, by partner, status, customer or time window. Dub: GET /commissions.

  • dub_list_payouts

    List partner payouts and their status. Dub: GET /payouts.

  • dub_create_link

    Create a short link. Omit `key` to let Dub generate one. Dub: POST /links.

  • dub_update_link

    Change a link's destination, key, tags or archived state. Dub: PATCH /links/{linkId}.

  • dub_delete_link

    Delete a short link. The URL stops resolving immediately and its analytics go with it. Dub: DELETE /links/{linkId}.

  • dub_create_tag

    Create a tag for organising links. Dub: POST /tags.

  • dub_create_folder

    Create a folder for grouping links. Dub: POST /folders.

  • dub_approve_partner_application

    Approve an application to join the partner programme. The partner gains links and starts earning commission. Dub: POST /partners/applications/approve.

  • dub_reject_partner_application

    Reject an application to join the partner programme. Dub: POST /partners/applications/reject.

Common questions

Is Dub MCP by usefulapi safe?

It passed 3 of 3 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 (1.35.3) reached the registry today.

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

Dub MCP by usefulapi

Short links with click, lead and sale analytics, customers, tags and the partner programme. Hosted, no local install.

Live endpoint: https://dub.usefulapi.io/mcp · Homepage: https://usefulapi.io

Connect

  • Claude (claude.ai, Desktop): open Customize → Connectors, click + Add → Add custom connector, and paste https://dub.usefulapi.io/mcp.
  • Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http dub https://dub.usefulapi.io/mcp, then run /mcp to log in.
  • VS Code: Add to VS Code.
  • Cursor and other clients: add the URL as a remote MCP server:
{

"mcpServers": { "dub": { "url": "https://dub.usefulapi.io/mcp" } } }

Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config: the server signs you in with OAuth, and the login page asks for your Dub credentials.

Step-by-step setup, where to find your credentials, and FAQ: https://usefulapi.io/dub/

On first connect you'll paste your Dub credentials. They are validated, stored per-user, and scoped to you — no keys in config files.
