Make QR codes from Cursor with the QRFLOW MCP server

Yes. Cursor's agent makes QR codes through the QRFLOW MCP server: add one entry to mcp.json (or press Add in Cursor Settings › MCP), sign in once, then ask the agent for a code while you work. Codes land in your QRFLOW dashboard.

Cursor alone vs Cursor with QRFLOW

Cursor can write a script that renders a static QR PNG with a library. Not editable after printing, not tracked.

	Cursor alone	Cursor + QRFLOW
The code you get	A static PNG with your link inside	A dynamic code in your QRFLOW account (static on Free)
Change where it goes after printing	No	Yes, in one sentence
Count scans, by day, country, device	No	Yes
Your own domain in the code	No	Yes, on Premium and Business
Wi-Fi, review, Instagram, PDF and 40 more kinds	Only if you write the format yourself	Ask for the kind by name
Pause, expire, rename, bulk	No	Yes
Where it lives afterwards	In the chat	On your dashboard, tagged with the assistant's name

Once, about a minute

Install the connector

Add it by pasting the address

1
Open Cursor Settings › MCP
Cursor Settings (⌘ , or Ctrl ,) then MCP, or Tools & Integrations on newer builds. Press "New MCP Server" or "Add".
2
Add the server
Cursor opens mcp.json. Add an entry with the URL https://qrflow.codes/mcp (config below). Save; QRFLOW appears in the list with a sign-in prompt.
3
Sign in
Press Needs login / Authenticate next to QRFLOW. Your browser opens a QRFLOW page: sign in and press Allow.

Then

1
Ask the agent
In Agent mode: "make a QR code for the deployed URL and add it to the README". Cursor shows the tool call and asks before anything that changes your account.

The app screens above are simplified drawings, not screenshots; labels follow each app's own and can move between versions. The QRFLOW consent screen is the real one.

The address to paste

https://qrflow.codes/mcp

Or as JSON, for clients that take a config file

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "qrflow": { "url": "https://qrflow.codes/mcp" }
  }
}

The agent decides when to call QRFLOW. Say what you want in the chat; approve the tool call when Cursor asks.

Copy and paste

Say this

“Make a QR code for our app page and save the SVG into /public/qr.svg.”

“List my QR codes and tell me which have zero scans.”

“Point the App download code at the new App Store link.”

“Make a QR code for each URL in links.txt, named after the line.”

Any kind works by name. Popular ones: Link.

What it cannot do

Add a logo to a code. Logos are added in the QRFLOW dashboard; the assistant's image then includes it.
Make a dynamic code on the Free plan. Free makes static codes (the content is inside the picture); Premium makes dynamic ones you can change later.
See anything outside your QRFLOW account, or act without you: you press Allow once, and deleting a code asks first.
Move money. A Venmo or PayPal code only opens a link you gave it.

Plans

What the assistant can do for you	Free	Premium	Business
Static codes (Wi-Fi, contact card, one-off links)	Yes	Yes	Yes
Dynamic codes: change the destination after printing	No	Yes	Yes
Scan analytics by day, country, device	No	Yes	Yes
Your own link domain (go.yourbrand.com)	No	1	5, chosen per code
Bulk: many codes in one ask	No	500/month	10,000/month
Team	1	1	5 people
Price	$0	$4/month	$29/month

The connector is free. Dynamic codes, analytics and your domain are Premium.

Questions

Can Cursor make a QR code for free?

Yes. Cursor alone can draw a static QR code, and with the QRFLOW connector the Free plan makes static codes too. A code you can change after printing, name on your domain and track needs QRFLOW Premium ($4 a month).

Is the code safe to print?

Yes. QRFLOW only accepts web, mail, phone, SMS, map and a few app links; a javascript: or data: link is refused. The picture is the same standard QR any phone camera reads.

Can it change a code that is already printed?

If the code is dynamic (Premium or Business), yes: say where it should go now and the printed code follows. A static code cannot change; ask for a new one.

What does the assistant see in my account?

Your codes, their scan numbers and your link domains, and only after you press Allow on a QRFLOW page. It never sees your password. Disconnect any time from Account › Connected apps on qrflow.codes.

Does it work on my phone?

Once connected, yes: connectors follow your Cursor account, so the same QRFLOW connection works in the mobile app.

How do I tell which codes an assistant made?

Every code shows its maker on the dashboard: a small "Cursor" badge next to the type, the way Canva codes show "Canva".

Where does mcp.json live?

Project: .cursor/mcp.json in the repo (shared with the team). Global: ~/.cursor/mcp.json.

Can I use an API key instead of signing in?

Yes on Business: add "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer qrf_live_…" } to the entry and skip the browser.
