bash
claude mcp add id-generator npx @devstacks/id-generator-mcp

Cursor, Winsurf, or Claude Desktop

To add the ID Generator MCP to Cursor, Winsurf, or Claude Desktop, add the following configuration to your MCP configuration file:

json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "id-generator": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["@devstacks/id-generator-mcp"]
    }
  }

Supported ID Algorithms

AlgorithmExampleDescription
`uuid``123e4567-e89b-12d3-a456-426614174000`UUID v4 - Universally Unique Identifier that uses random numbers to generate a 128-bit value with extremely low collision probability. Standardized format widely used across many systems.
`cuid2``clh3ppfqz0000jz0ggdlg7etk`Collision-resistant IDs optimized for horizontal scaling and performance. Shorter than UUIDs while maintaining uniqueness. Designed to be secure, URL-safe, and sequential for database performance.
`nanoid``V1StGXR8_Z5jdHi6B-myT`Small, secure, URL-friendly unique string ID generator. Creates compact, non-sequential, URL-safe identifiers that are highly collision-resistant. Default length is 21 characters.
`ulid``01ARZ3NDEKTSV4RRFFQ69G5FAV`Universally Unique Lexicographically Sortable Identifier. Combines time-ordered uniqueness with random uniqueness. 26 characters, crockford base32 encoded (no special characters), URL-safe, and lexicographically sortable.

Features

  • Generate UUIDs (v4)
  • Create CUID2 IDs for collision-resistant identification
  • Generate Nanoid for compact, URL-friendly identifiers
  • Create ULIDs for time-ordered, sortable identifiers
  • Consistent ID generation across sessions
  • Simple API integration
  • Support for generating multiple IDs at once
