Zulk URL Shortener Skill

This skill enables AI agents to manage short links, organizations, and analytics using the Zu.lk MCP (Model Context Protocol) server.

Overview

Zu.lk is an AI-first premium URL shortener designed for blazing-fast performance and seamless AI integration. This skill connects your agent to the Zulk MCP server, allowing it to:

• Create shortened URLs (e.g., zu.lk/abcd)
• Manage existing links and campaigns
• Access real-time analytics
• Manage organizations and collaborate with team members

Installation

To use this skill, add the Zulk MCP server configuration to your AI assistant's settings (e.g., mcp.json or equivalent).

Configuration Options

Choose the transport method that best fits your environment:

1. Streamable HTTP (Recommended)

Fastest and most reliable communication.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "zulk-url-shortener": { "url": "https://mcp.zu.lk/mcp" }
  }
}

2. SSE (Server-Sent Events)

Real-time streaming specialized for certain clients.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "zulk-url-shortener": { "url": "https://mcp.zu.lk/sse" }
  }
}

3. Stdio (via mcp-remote or mcporter)

Uses standard input/output via a remote bridge.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "zulk-url-shortener": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["mcporter", "https://mcp.zu.lk/mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Preparation: Ensure you have a Zu.lk account or are ready to sign in via Google.
2. Configuration: Add one of the JSON configurations above to your agent's MCP settings file.
3. Authentication: When you first run a command like "shorten this link", the agent will present an OAuth URL. Follow the link to authenticate.
4. Verification: Ask the agent "List my recently created links" to verify the connection is active.
5. Execution: Use natural language to create links, e.g., "Create a short link for https://google.com with alias 'my-search'".

Common Workflows

Creating a Short Link

1. Determine which organization the link should belong to.
2. If the organization is not specified, call zulk_get_organizations to list available organizations.
3. Call zulk_create_link with the specific orgId and url.
4. Return the generated short link to the user.

Listing Links in an Organization

1. Identify the organization.
2. Call zulk_get_organization_links.
3. Return the list of links in a readable format.

Inviting a Member

1. Ensure the user has ADMIN or OWNER permissions.
2. Call zulk_add_organization_member with the organization ID and member details.
3. Confirm the member was successfully added.

Viewing Analytics

1. Identify the organization.
2. Call zulk_get_organization_analytics.
3. Summarize click metrics for the user.

Best Practices

• Always verify the organization before creating or modifying links.
• Prefer listing organizations if the user did not specify one.
• Provide clean responses when returning links or analytics.
• Clearly report permission errors when they occur.

Usage Examples

Creating a Link

Input: "Shorten https://github.com/Zu-lk/zulk-short-url-skill for my marketing team" Agent reasoning:

1. Identify the organization belonging to the marketing team.
2. Call zulk_create_link.
3. Return the generated short link.

Output: "Generated short link: https://zu.lk/z-skill"

Checking Analytics

Input: "Show analytics for our links" Agent reasoning:

1. Determine the organization.
2. Call zulk_get_organization_analytics.
3. Summarize the click data.

Output: "Your links received 1,240 clicks yesterday. Here is the breakdown..."

Edge Cases & Troubleshooting

• Auth Failure: If authentication fails, ensure you are using the correct Google account. You may need to restart the agent to re-trigger the OAuth flow.
• Alias Taken: If a custom alias is already in use, the agent should suggest an alternative or append a random string.
• Rate Limits: If you exceed your plan's link limit, the MCP server will return an error indicating the limit has been reached.
• Link Expiration: Ensure you check if the link has an expiration date if it suddenly stops working.
