ID Generator MCP
The ID Generator MCP server allows you to generate unique IDs using specific algorithms:
Generate IDs using two algorithms:
cuid2(default) anduuidcuid2: Creates collision-resistant IDs optimized for horizontal scaling and performanceuuid: Generates UUID v4, a universally unique identifier with a standardized formatSimple API integration through the
generate-idendpoint
Click on "Install Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@ID Generator MCPgenerate a UUID for my new database record"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
ID Generator MCP
This is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides ID generation capabilities to AI assistants.
Installation
The ID Generator MCP can be integrated with various AI assistant platforms. Below are instructions for different environments:
Installing via Smithery
To install ID Generator MCP for Claude Desktop automatically via Smithery:
npx -y @smithery/cli install @devstacks-software-engineering/id-generator-mcp --client claudeClaude Code
To add the ID Generator MCP to Claude Code, run the following command:
claude mcp add id-generator npx @devstacks/id-generator-mcpCursor, 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:
{
"mcpServers": {
"id-generator": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["@devstacks/id-generator-mcp"]
}
}
}Related MCP server: UUID AI MCP
Usage
Once installed, the ID Generator MCP can be used by the AI assistant to generate various types of IDs.
Supported ID Algorithms
Algorithm | Example | Description |
|
| 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. |
|
| 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. |
|
| 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. |
|
| 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
