RedirHub MCP — manage URL redirects from Claude/Cursor (free tier, open source)

I work on RedirHub, so this is our own MCP server. Sharing it here because redirect management turned out to be a genuinely good MCP use case and this sub is where it's relevant.

What it does: connects an AI agent (Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, Codex) to RedirHub so you can create, update, and manage URL redirects, short links, and domains in plain language instead of clicking through a dashboard.

Some specifics that might be useful if you're building in this space:

17 tools / 15 resources — covers CRUD on redirects, bulk import, domain management, workspace stuff
Bulk operations have a dry-run mode (preview changes before they commit) — this was the part that made it actually safe to point an agent at production
Streamable HTTP transport (JSON-RPC 2.0), so it works with any MCP client out of the box
Works on the free tier, not gated behind a paid plan

Repo + setup: github.com/redirhub/mcp-server

Happy to answer anything about how it's built or the design choices — and genuinely curious if others here have found redirect/infra management to be a good fit for MCP, or if you're using it for different things.

Anyone finding the boring tasks are where agents actually earn their keep?

been using MCP for a while and the flashy autonomous-agent stuff still feels fragile to me. where it's genuinely saved me is redirects.

managing them manually s the worst, I'm dealing with dozens at a time, which feels boring... I quickly lose focus around and suddenly out of no where I end up with broken chains. I cant even notice because broken redirects don't throw errors. they just quietly bleed traffic until someone catches it weeks later.

I have 47 browser tabs open and I'm scared to close any of them...

Every single one is "important." I will need none of them. I know this. And yet.

I have a constant feeling that each one of them is "important" yet they are just not.

This is a daily struggle when I'm operating from my laptop. Three or four of them are duplicates. some article I was going to read.. youtube music, which I listened to last year, yet it survived in my browser still. two tabs I'm afraid to even look at them because I forgot why I even opened them.

and the endless loop of things that are completely irrelevent, but somehow I gotta figure out why I left them open.

IF I close them, they will be gone forever because last hour doesnt exist for me, let alone browser history. if I keep them I'm going to withstand the immense urge to go through them.

and now I'm stuck like this for a week. I might have made peace with this.

why doesn't my brain like it when I focus on something that is valuable, even though I'm fully convinced to the idea?

Alright, this might sound absurd, but I heard this is related to something I heard in IFS therapy which says that this is not laziness; but a protective part acting as a brake. which protects me from underlying fears of failure.

Now I don't know if this is related to ADHD or not, considering that I have ADHD, and I already face problems with attention deficit. might as well get some people's thoughts around this.

do you actually get to choose what you can focus on?
