Create team-wide branded links in VS Code Copilot

The BL.INK MCP server brings enterprise link management directly into your team's favorite editor. Developers can ask the Copilot chat agent to run `shorten_link` to quickly generate short tracking URLs for documentation, READMEs, or code comments. By using a shared configuration, everyone on your team can access `list_domains` to ensure all generated links use official corporate brand assets.

This MCP Server lets your team verify active redirects

This MCP Server lets your team verify active redirects without leaving the pull request. Your agent can run `get_link` to inspect where a specific short link points before you merge code that references it. If the destination is incorrect or outdated, the agent can call `update_link` to fix the routing immediately, keeping your production links accurate and functional.

Track click analytics directly inside your workspace

Running the BL.INK MCP server allows you to monitor how your shared links perform by querying `get_link_analytics` through your Copilot chat panel. The agent pulls live click data so you can see if users are actually clicking your in-app documentation links. You can also list and filter active assets using `list_links` to identify high-traffic redirects that might need optimization or extra QA attention.
