QRX: art QR codes to validate before use

QRX turns a short picture description (the prompt) and a destination link into an artistic QR code. The service states it checks decoding before return; this does not guarantee scanning after resizing, printing, damage or under every camera/lighting condition, and it encodes a hosted short link, https://qrx.to/<id> on qrx.codes, which forwards scans to the destination. Treat the result as a design asset: a PNG the user can drop into print or digital layouts.

When to Use

Use it when the user wants a QR code that is also a picture: on-brand, decorative, or eye-catching enough to earn a scan. Typical asks: a café menu code in a watercolour style, a conference badge code in the event's colours, a poster code that blends into the artwork, a product-packaging code, a wedding-invitation code.

Do not use it when:

• a plain, unstyled QR code will do and can be made locally (offer QRX only if the user wants something designed);
• the user wants to change the art of an existing code (make a new code instead);
• the request is for a logo, trademark or character the user does not own (see "What not to do").

Tools (QRX MCP server)

| Tool | Use |

| - | - |

| list_styles | List style ids and names. |

| generate_qr_code | Start a code. Args: prompt (required, up to 1,000 characters), destination (required, an absolute http or https URL, up to 2,048 characters), optional style. Answers at once with the code's id and status: processing. |

| get_qr_code | Get a code by id. Waits up to wait seconds (0 to 25, default 25) for a processing code to finish. Call again while it is still processing. |

| list_qr_codes | The user's codes, newest first. limit 1 to 100 (default 20); pass nextCursor as cursor for the next page. |

| change_qr_code_destination | Re-point a link code's short link to a new destination (id, destination: an absolute http or https URL). Printed codes follow at once. Only if the account's plan allows changing destinations; it replaces the old destination, so confirm with the user first. |

| get_account | The plan, today's allowance, what is left, when it resets, and which features the account has (Wi-Fi codes, changing destinations). |

| get_profile | The connected QRX account. |

The server needs the user to sign in to QRX (or an API key) before it connects. If the tools are missing, it is not connected: ask the user to sign in from their client's MCP or connector settings, or use the REST API instead (see [references/rest-api.md](references/rest-api.md)).

How to make a code

1. Get the destination. It must be an absolute URL starting with https:// or http:// (add https:// if the user gave a bare domain, and confirm the exact link if it is ambiguous). The MCP tools make link codes only; for a Wi-Fi code, send the user to https://qrx.codes, and never ask them for a Wi-Fi password.

2. Write the prompt (see "Writing a good prompt"). If the user named a look, call list_styles and pick the closest style id; otherwise leave style out.

3. Check get_account and confirm the requested generation count/cost within existing authorization, then call generate_qr_code once. Keep the returned id; it never changes. Painting usually takes under a minute.

4. Poll with get_qr_code using that id until status is succeeded or failed. Each call waits up to 25 seconds. Bound the monitoring window; on a persistent processing state, retain the ID and report it without generating a replacement.

• Never call generate_qr_code again while a code is still processing: every generate counts against the user's allowance.

5. Show the result: the image (imageUrl, a PNG), the short link the code encodes (shortUrl, https://qrx.to/<id> on qrx.codes), the destination, and the code's page (pageUrl). Tell the user to test-scan it with a phone before printing.

6. On failed: read error.message, simplify the prompt (fewer elements, more contrast), and offer one retry. Ask before making more than one extra attempt.

For several variations, say how many will be made and that each counts against the allowance, then start them and poll each id.

Writing a good prompt

The prompt describes the picture only. QRX handles the QR pattern itself.

• Lead with one clear subject and setting: "a lighthouse on a cliff at sunset", "a bowl of ramen with steam rising", "a eucalyptus branch with gumnuts".
• Add a style or medium: watercolour, linocut print, isometric 3D, art deco poster, Japanese woodblock, papercraft, neon line art.
• Name the palette, especially brand colours: "in deep navy, coral and cream"; describe colours in words, since hex codes are not reliably followed.
• Keep it simple: one subject, a few adjectives, 10 to 30 words. Busy scenes with many small objects scan and read worse.
• Prefer strong light-dark contrast in the description ("bold shapes, high contrast") for codes that will be printed small or viewed from a distance.
• Leave out words and lettering: do not ask for text, slogans, numbers or logos inside the art. Put copy next to the code in the layout instead.
• Use Australian or the user's own spelling; it does not matter to the model.

More examples and fixes: [references/prompt-guide.md](references/prompt-guide.md).

Limits

• Accounts have a daily allowance of codes (some have no daily limit), and changing where a code points depends on the account's plan. Call get_account to see what is left today, when the count resets and which features the account has; act on the features it reports, not on the plan name.
• If a call fails with a limit error, or says a feature is not included in the account's plan, call get_account, tell the user plainly what is left and when it resets (or that the feature is not included in their plan), and point them to their account at https://qrx.codes. Do not retry in a loop.
• An authentication error means no QRX account is connected. Ask the user to sign in to QRX when their client prompts (or from its MCP or connector settings); a client that cannot sign in can use an API key from https://qrx.codes/developers/keys instead.

Links and re-pointing

The code encodes its short link (https://qrx.to/<id> on qrx.codes), not the destination itself. A code's id and short link never change. That keeps the pattern simple and, where the account's plan allows it, lets the user change the destination later with change_qr_code_destination without reprinting. Mention this when the user is printing in volume or the destination may change (seasonal menus, event pages).

Print and placement checklist

Share the relevant points when the code is for print:

• Test-scan the downloaded PNG on at least two phones (iPhone camera and an Android camera) before sending to print, and again on a printed proof.
• Size: 2.5 cm square is only an initial proofing heuristic for handheld use, not a guaranteed minimum. Validate the actual code density, resolution, scanning distance, substrate and lighting on the final proof.
• Quiet zone: keep a clear margin around the code, and do not crop, overlap or place text over the artwork's edges.
• Do not recolour, stretch, add filters or vectorise the image; resize proportionally only.
• Contrast with the background: place it on a calm area, not on a busy photo.
• Finish: matte stock scans more reliably than gloss under lights.
• Put a short call to action beside the code ("Scan for the menu").

What not to do

• Do not put logos, trademarks, celebrities or characters the user does not own in the prompt, and do not imitate another company's branding.
• Do not ask for text inside the art.
• Do not generate codes that point to phishing, malware or deceptive pages, or that hide where a link goes.
• Do not start many codes "just to see"; each one uses the user's allowance.
• Do not paste the user's API key into chat output, files or commits.

REST API fallback

If the MCP tools are not available but the user has an API key, follow [references/rest-api.md](references/rest-api.md) (create with POST https://qrx.codes/v1/codes, then GET https://qrx.codes/v1/codes/{id}?wait=45).

Examples

A café wants a menu QR code in watercolours:

1. Destination: https://example.com/menu (confirm the exact link).
2. Select style: list_styles, then pick the closest watercolour-style id.
3. generate_qr_code({"prompt": "a steaming flat white on a timber bench, watercolour, warm cream and espresso brown", "destination": "https://example.com/menu", "style": "<id>"})
4. Poll get_qr_code with the returned id until status is succeeded.
5. Show imageUrl, shortUrl, destination and pageUrl, and ask the owner to test-scan before printing.

REST fallback when the MCP server is not connected:

Create QRX_REQUEST_ID once (for example with uuidgen) and retain it with the identical payload for eve
