Trunc

MCP integration

Connect your AI assistant.

Trunc ships an MCP server. Point Claude Desktop — or any MCP client — at it, and you can shorten links and read your analytics from inside a conversation.

1 · Your token

The MCP server has no login of its own. It identifies you by the JWT this app issues.

Treat this like a password. Anyone holding it can create links as you.

2 · Claude Desktop config

Paste this into claude_desktop_config.json, then quit Claude Desktop completely and reopen it.

claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "trunc": {
      "url": "https://trunc-mcp-server.onrender.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer <your-jwt>"
      }
    }
  }
}

3 · What you can ask for

Four tools. Every one of them requires your token.

  • whoamiCheck whether the server can see your token.
  • shorten_urlShorten a URL. Takes an optional customAlias.
  • get_my_linksList the links on your account.
  • get_clicks_by_dayClicks per day, 1–90 days.

Then just ask: “shorten github.com/subhm2004 for me and tell me how my links did this week”
