A remote MCP server that lets an assistant decode barcodes from images, render text as barcode PNGs, and validate GTIN product codes.
What you can do
Decode barcodes and QR codes found in a base64-encoded image, optionally filtered by format, returning format and text pairs. Render text as a barcode PNG in formats such as QR, Aztec, DataMatrix, Code128, EAN, UPC and PDF417, with a self-check decode flag. Validate GTIN product codes for length and mod-10 checksum and return the detected type and normalized value. List the supported barcode formats with render and decode support notes.
When to use it
Useful when an assistant needs to read codes from product or document images, generate barcode images for labels or testing, or check whether a product code is a well-formed GTIN.
Requirements
A remote streamable HTTP endpoint; no authentication, API keys or environment variables are declared. Images must be supplied as base64-encoded bytes.
Before you install
Images you submit are sent to a third-party remote service, so avoid confidential material. Rendering and validation are read-only computations, but GTIN codes with an invalid mod-10 checksum are rejected.
Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.
Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.
Use with an agent
Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.
Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/io.github.appvantagelabs2-a11y%2Fbarcode/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.
Detect and decode all barcodes in an image. Input: base64-encoded image bytes (PNG/JPEG/WebP/anything sharp reads). Output: JSON array of {format, text}. Supports QR, Aztec, DataMatrix, Code128/39/93, EAN-13/8, UPC-A/E, ITF, PDF417, Codabar. Use formats filter to restrict results.
Parametersformatsimage_base64required
render_barcode
Render a barcode/QR to PNG
Render text as a barcode PNG. format: one of qr, aztec, datamatrix, code128, code39, code93, ean13, ean8, upca, itf, pdf417. Output: base64 PNG plus 'decoded' self-check flag (we decode our own render; upca intentionally verifies as zero-padded EAN-13). GTIN codes must have a valid mod-10 checksum.
Parameterstextrequiredscaleformatrequired
validate_gtin
Validate a GTIN/EAN/UPC code
Check a product code against GTIN rules: length + mod-10 checksum. Returns {valid, type: ean13|ean8|upcA|null, normalized}. Rejects codes with a broken checksum (e.g. 8595234703191).
