KeyShortcuts MCP Server

A free, stateless Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for keyboard shortcuts — hosted at https://keyshortcuts.net/api/mcp. No API key, no sign-in, no rate-limit paywall for basic use.

Search 2,719 verified shortcut records across 7 platforms (Windows, macOS, Linux, ChromeOS, iOS, Android) and 45 apps (VS Code, Excel, Figma, Photoshop, Notion, Slack, Vim, IntelliJ IDEA, Cursor, and more) — or look up what a key combination does, compare across platforms, and translate bindings between Windows/macOS.

Quick start

Add to your MCP client config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "keyshortcuts": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://keyshortcuts.net/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop / Claude Code

claude mcp add keyshortcuts --transport http https://keyshortcuts.net/api/mcp

Available tools

Every record carries source references and per-binding review status — shortcuts are facts, but which ones are confirmed for your platform matters. The server never guesses platform translations.

Verify it right now

curl -s https://keyshortcuts.net/api/mcp \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Accept: application/json, text/event-stream" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"initialize","params":{"protocolVersion":"2025-03-26","capabilities":{},"clientInfo":{"name":"curl","version":"1.0"}}}'
