Use Bitly with AI safely

Shows how to connect Bitly, confirm the account and group before acting, choose between link and QR tools, and get your approval before any change.

Use it when

You have just connected Bitly and want to know where to start.
You are about to edit or create links or QR codes and want to avoid touching the wrong group.
An AI tool returned an auth or permission error on Bitly and you need to know what to do.

Tools it uses

Example

Check which Bitly group I'm working in, then list my latest short links.

You are signed in as the account owner of the Marketing group in your organization. I found 3 groups in total, so I've used Marketing because you named it. I pulled the 25 most recent short links in that group, and I'll list the top 5 below. Nothing has been changed.

Campaign QR code management for Bitly

Creates, finds and updates Bitly QR codes for posters, flyers and packaging, tying each code to the right short link and group. It checks existing codes first and asks before changing anything.

Use it when

Making a QR code for a spring poster or event flyer
Finding the QR code already used for a campaign before printing another
Retargeting a code whose destination has changed

Tools it uses

get_user
get_groups
get_group_details
get_group_qr_codes
get_qr_code
get_short_link_details
expand
create_short_link
custom_backhalf
create_qr_code
update_qr_code
get_qr_code_image

Example

Make a QR code for our spring sale flyer that points to bitly.com/spring-sale in the Retail group, and check we don't already have one.

I found one existing code for the spring sale, named "Spring sale – store window – 2024", pointing at /spring-sale. I'd suggest reusing it rather than creating a second code. If you still want a new one for the flyer, here is what I would create: a code named "Spring sale – flyer – 2024" on the same short link in the Retail group. Say yes and I'll create it, then retrieve the image for you to scan-test before printing.

Review Bitly link performance with AI

Pulls click metrics for your Bitly links over a period you choose and reports which links are working, which are dead and where traffic comes from. It is read-only and never changes a link.

Use it when

You want to know which campaign links actually got clicks last month.
You need to see whether a QR or print link is being scanned on mobile or desktop.
You are deciding which old links to keep or retire, based on real traffic.

Tools it uses

get_groups
get_group_short_links
get_group_short_links_sorted
get_user
get_organizations
link_metrics
link_clicks_summary
link_countries
link_cities
link_devices
link_referrers
link_referring_domains
get_short_link_details

Example

How did our spring campaign links perform over the last 30 days? Which ones are dead?

Across the 12 spring links, 30-day clicks total 4,806, and 3 links drive 71% of them. The top link gets most traffic from an events newsletter on mobile. Five links have zero clicks, but two were created only last week, so I have marked just three as dead. I have not changed anything. Want me to draft a retirement list for your approval?

Shorten campaign links with attribution

Turns a batch of destination URLs into consistently named Bitly short links, checks for existing links first, and returns a tracking-ready list. It shows the plan and waits for your approval before creating anything.

Use it when

You are launching a campaign and need trackable links for a newsletter, social posts and an ad set.
You want branded or custom back-halves across a set of pages.
You need to avoid creating duplicate links for URLs that are already shortened.

Tools it uses

get_groups
get_user
expand
get_group_short_links
get_group_short_links_sorted
custom_backhalf
create_short_link
get_short_link_details

Example

Shorten these 6 landing page URLs for our spring launch newsletter and use custom back-halves starting with acme/spring-nl-.

I found 4 of the 6 destinations already have links in the Marketing group, so I would reuse those to keep their click history. The other 2 are new. Proposed back-halves are acme/spring-nl-pricing and acme/spring-nl-demo. Please approve this table before I create the 2 new links.

How Bitly skills work

Connect Bitly
The Bitly MCP server gives the agent its tools.
Ask in plain words
“Make a QR code for our spring sale flyer that points to bitly.com/spring-sale in the Retail group, and check we don't already have one.” Each SKILL.md says when it applies, so only the one that fits is loaded.
Approve any change
The agent calls the tools in order, checks its work, and shows you any change before it makes it.

How to install Bitly skills

In RevampKey the skills install themselves when you connect Bitly. In other tools each skill is one folder with a SKILL.md file, and you also need the Bitly MCP server connected there.

Bitly skills FAQ

What is a Bitly agent skill?

A SKILL.md file: a short playbook an AI agent loads when your request matches it. Each Bitly skill describes one job, which Bitly tools to use in which order, what to check first and when to stop and ask you.

Do the Bitly skills change anything on their own?

1 of the 4 only read. The others tell the agent to show you the change and wait for a yes before it creates, edits or deletes anything in Bitly.

Which tools can use these skills?

Any agent that reads the open Agent Skills format: Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, VS Code with Copilot and RevampKey. In RevampKey they are attached when you connect Bitly; elsewhere you copy the folders into your project or skills directory.

Do I need the Bitly MCP server too?

Yes. The skills tell the agent how to do the work; the Bitly MCP server gives it the tools to do it. The Bitly MCP setup guide covers every client.
