# barcode-scanner-mcp

MCP server for scanning and generating barcodes and QR codes.

## Use Cases

**Decode a barcode from a photo**: "What does this barcode say?" → reads the image, detects the barcode format, and returns the decoded text.

**Generate a QR code**: "Create a QR code for https://example.com" → generates a PNG QR code image with configurable error correction.

**Create shipping labels**: "Generate a Code 128 barcode for tracking number 1Z999AA10123456784" → produces a barcode image in the specified format.

**Verify printed barcodes**: "Scan this product barcode and look up the item" → decodes the barcode and returns the text for further lookup.

## Setup

Follow the instructions on [install-mcp](https://adamjones.me/install-mcp/?config=eyJjb21tYW5kIjoibnB4IiwiYXJncyI6WyIteSIsImJhcmNvZGUtc2Nhbm5lci1tY3AiXSwibmFtZSI6ImJhcmNvZGUtc2Nhbm5lciJ9), which generates the right config for your MCP client (Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline, VS Code, and more).
