WHAT THE SERVER EXPOSES
2 functions to request.
Names and descriptions below come from live MCP discovery. They describe the server; they are not a test of every function in ChatGPT or Claude.
Generate barcode
generate_barcodeUse this when the user wants a barcode generator: a UPC or EAN-13 barcode for a product, a Code 128 barcode for a SKU or label, GS1-128 with (01) GTIN, (17) expiry and (10) lot, Code 39, an ITF-14 carton code, or a book ISBN barcode. Computes or verifies the check digit (explains a wrong one), applies GS1 quiet zones and sizes, and returns SVG and PNG download links plus calculated print dimensions. Does not issue or register GS1 numbers (real UPC/EAN numbers must be licensed from GS1), does not scan images or look up products. Do not use for QR codes.
Validate barcode number
validate_barcode_numberUse this when the user asks whether a UPC, EAN, GTIN-8/12/13/14, SSCC, ISBN-10/13 or ISSN number is valid, what its check digit should be, or wants to convert ISBN-10 to ISBN-13, UPC-E to UPC-A, or UPC-A to EAN-13/GTIN-14. Explains the check-digit arithmetic, gives the corrected number and the GS1 prefix meaning. Does not tell who owns a number, whether it is registered with GS1, or what product it is; does not look anything up online.
