How do I install the toolkit mcp server?

Use a recorded configuration for your client, replace example credential values and paths, and verify the documented runtime. Restart or reconnect the client, then inspect the available tools.

What credentials does it need?

It reads `MCP_TRANSPORT_TYPE`, `MCP_LOG_LEVEL`, `TOOLKIT_ENABLE_NET_DIAGNOSTICS`, `TOOLKIT_ENABLE_SYSTEM_INFO`, `TOOLKIT_GEO_API_KEY`, `TOOLKIT_GEO_BASE_URL` from the environment. Store these in your client's env block or a secrets manager — never commit them to a repository — and grant the narrowest scope that still covers your use case.

What is the Toolkit MCP Server?

Generate random IDs, QR codes, and hashes, encode and decode values, and geolocate IPs, plus gated network and system diagnostics, via MCP. STDIO or Streamable HTTP.

The short version

Declarative tool definitions — single file per tool, framework handles registration and validation
Unified error handling — handlers throw, framework catches, classifies, and formats
Typed error contracts — each fallible tool declares its failure reasons with recovery hints the agent can act on
Pluggable auth: none, jwt, oauth
Structured logging with optional OpenTelemetry tracing
STDIO and Streamable HTTP transports

What it needs from you

Bun v1.3.2 or higher (or Node.js v24+). - No API key needed — geolocation uses the keyless ip-api free tier by default.

Recorded tools

Check the linked publisher documentation and your connected client's tool list. Names and availability can vary with the server version and account permissions.

Tool	What it does
toolkit_hash_value	Generate a digest (sha256/sha384/sha512/sha1/md5) as hex, base64, or SRI, or constant-time-compare a value against an expected digest
toolkit_generate_id	Mint cryptographically random UUIDv4, UUIDv7, or ULID identifiers, up to 1000 per call
toolkit_generate_qr	Encode text or a URL as a QR code in SVG, base64 PNG, or terminal half-blocks
toolkit_encode_value	Encode or decode base64, base64url, hex, or URL percent-encoding
toolkit_geolocate_ip	Resolve a public IP or hostname to country, city, coordinates, ASN, and timezone
toolkit_check_network	Gated, off by default. Ping, traceroute, TCP connectivity, or egress-IP check from the server host
toolkit_check_system	Gated, off by default. OS, CPU, memory, load average, or network interfaces of the server host
