Install SkanQRCode in Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code
Runs npx -y @skanqrcode/mcp-server on your machine. Read the scan report first; the gateway never runs local packages.

SkanQRCode SDK examples
Code examples and installable SDK packages for SkanQRCode, a real-time URL/QR-code safety API — POST a URL or IP to /v1/check and get back malicious / suspicious / not_malicious in under 200ms, meant to gate "should I open this link" decisions right after scanning a QR code or following an inbound link.
Start here: docs/api-contract.md — the exact request/response contract every example in this repo follows. It mirrors the published OpenAPI spec (v1.7.0) at docs.skanqrcode.com/openapi.json; when that spec changes, update the contract doc first, then the SDKs.
Layout
docs/
api-contract.md the canonical request/response contract (read this first)
quickstart/<lang>/ raw HTTP usage, no SDK — good for a 5-minute "does this work" test
sdk/<lang>/ installable SDK package with a typed SkanQRCodeClient
mobile/<platform>/ a QR-scan-then-check screen for a real mobile app
mcp/ MCP server + client examples for agent/LLM tool-callingEvery SDK exposes the same shape adapted to its language's conventions: a SkanQRCodeClient (or Client) constructed with an API key, plus one method per API operation:
Errors are typed and carry code/message/requestId, the HTTP status and, for a 429, retryAfter seconds. A shouldBlock/isSafe-style helper is built on action so callers don't have to switch on the raw enum themselves. The billing webhook isn't exposed — it isn't for API clients. Every mobile example scans a QR code with the platform's standard local decoder, calls checkUrl before opening the link, and fails closed (doesn't auto-open) on a network error or timeout.
Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.
Nothing above is checked by us. What we check is on the safety report.
