Nanoid Generator

What is the Nanoid Generator MCP Server?

UUIDs are 36 characters. That's 36 characters in every URL, every database row, every API response, every log line. Nanoid gives you the same collision resistance in just 21 characters — URL-safe, no encoding needed, and cryptographically secure.

With 40M+ weekly downloads, nanoid is the ID generator behind Supabase, Vite, and PostCSS. This MCP lets any agent generate production-grade IDs without hallucinating random strings.

The Superpowers

  • 21 Characters = Same Security as UUID: The math proves it — ~1 billion years to have a 1% collision probability at 1,000 IDs/hour.
  • URL-Safe by Default: A-Za-z0-9_- — no percent-encoding, no base64 headaches.
  • Custom Alphabet: Need numeric-only IDs for order numbers? Hex-only for tokens? Pass any character set.
  • Cryptographic: Uses crypto.getRandomValues() — the same API used for encryption keys.

Built-in capabilities (1)

generate_nanoid

Default size is 21 characters with collision probability of ~1 billion years at 1000 IDs/hour. For custom alphabets, pass an alphabet string (e.g. "0123456789" for numeric IDs). Nanoid uses crypto.getRandomValues() for security. Generates unique URL-safe IDs using nanoid. 2x faster than UUID, 118 bytes. Custom alphabet support

Why Claude Code?

Claude Code registers Nanoid Generator as an MCP server in a single terminal command. Once connected, Claude Code discovers all 1 tools at runtime and can call them headlessly. ideal for CI/CD pipelines, cron jobs, and automated workflows where Nanoid Generator data drives decisions without human intervention.

  • Single-command setup: claude mcp add registers the server instantly. no config files to edit or applications to restart

  • Terminal-native workflow means MCP tools integrate seamlessly into shell scripts, CI/CD pipelines, and automated DevOps tasks

  • Claude Code runs headlessly, enabling unattended batch processing using Nanoid Generator tools in cron jobs or deployment scripts

  • Built by the same team that created the MCP protocol, ensuring first-class compatibility and the fastest adoption of new protocol features

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01

Why should I use nanoid instead of UUID?

Nanoid is 40% shorter (21 vs 36 chars), 2x faster, URL-safe without encoding, and has equivalent collision resistance. UUID still wins for enterprise systems that mandate RFC 9562 compliance.

02

Can I generate IDs with only numbers for order codes?

Yes. Set alphabet to '0123456789' and size to 8 for an 8-digit numeric order code like '47829163'. Works with any character set you define.

03

Is it safe to use as a secret token or API key?

Yes. Nanoid uses crypto.getRandomValues() — the same cryptographic PRNG used for TLS keys and encryption. Increase the size to 32+ characters for high-security tokens.

04

How do I add an MCP server to Claude Code?

Run claude mcp add <name> --transport http "<url>" in your terminal. Claude Code registers the server and discovers all tools immediately.

05

Can Claude Code run MCP tools in headless mode?

Yes. Claude Code supports non-interactive execution, making it ideal for scripts, cron jobs, and CI/CD pipelines that need MCP tool access.

06

How do I list all connected MCP servers?

Run claude mcp in your terminal to see all registered servers and their status, or type /mcp inside an active Claude Code session.
