# QR Code Generator MCP for AI Agents AI Agent Connect > QR Code Generator lets you create and read QR codes directly through your AI client. It handles everything from simple URLs to custom-styled codes for branding. You can generate high-quality images in formats like SVG and PNG or extract data from existing QR codes just by providing a link. It's built for anyone who needs to move data from the physical world to the digital one without leaving their chat interface. ## Overview - **Category:** productivity - **Price:** Free - **Endpoint:** https://edge.vinkius.com/vk_preview_mnfq1mFq44mC9VjP6dkDA9eXA0pPzKNdEngW45sw/ai-agent-connect - **Tags:** qr-code, barcode, image-generation, data-encoding, scanner ## Description Imagine you're in the middle of a project and need to get people to a specific landing page or a piece of documentation. Usually, you'd have to open a separate website, find a generator, tweak the colors to match your brand, and then download the file. With this Connector, you just tell your AI client what you need. It handles the heavy lifting of talking to the goqr.me API to build the code for you. You can specify the exact dimensions, the color palette, and even the error correction level if you're worried about the code getting damaged in print. You can even choose different background styles to make sure the code stands out against your design. If you have an old code and need to know what's inside it, you just send the image link to your agent. It pulls the data out instantly, which is a huge time saver when you're auditing old assets or trying to figure out where a specific link leads. This is part of the Vinkius catalog, which makes it easy to plug into your existing workflow. Whether you're a developer making app links or a marketer building a campaign, you get the result without the extra tabs and manual clicks. It's a way to keep your momentum going without having to leave your workspace to handle small, repetitive tasks. ## Tools ### create_qr_code Generates a unique image URL for a QR code based on your data and style preferences. This lets you create branded assets for print or digital use instantly. ### read_qr_code Decodes a QR code from a public image URL and returns the underlying text or link. Use this to quickly extract data from existing images. ## Prompt Examples **Prompt:** ``` Create a QR code for the URL https://vurb.io ``` **Response:** ``` I've generated the QR code for you. You can view or download it here: [QR Code URL]. ``` **Prompt:** ``` Generate a 400x400 blue QR code for the text 'Welcome to the Team' in PNG format. ``` **Response:** ``` The custom blue QR code (400x400) has been created. Here is your link: [QR Code URL]. ``` **Prompt:** ``` Decode the QR code from this image: https://example.com/my-qr.png ``` **Response:** ``` I've scanned the image. The QR code contains the following data: 'https://github.com/mcp-servers'. ``` ## Capabilities ### Generate custom QR codes Create unique codes from URLs or plain text with specific styling. ### Extract hidden data Decode information from existing QR code images using a public link. ### Customize brand colors Apply specific colors and background styles to your generated codes. ### Set image dimensions Choose specific sizes and file formats like PNG, SVG, and JPEG. ### Adjust error correction Set ECC levels to keep codes scannable even if they get partially damaged. ### Define quiet zones Control margins and character sets for better readability in different contexts. ## Use Cases ### Branded Marketing Assets A social media manager wants a blue QR code for a 'Welcome' message. They ask the agent to create a 400x400 blue PNG. ### Developer Documentation A developer needs a QR code for a new API endpoint. They ask the agent to generate one for a specific URL to put in a manual. ### Inventory Auditing An operations lead has a photo of a warehouse tag. They ask the agent to decode the QR code from that image link. ### Event Registration A coordinator wants to create a QR code that leads to a registration form. They ask the agent to generate one with a specific margin. ## Benefits - Save time by generating codes directly in your chat.
