Short Menu for AI agents

Short Menu is a URL shortening application for creating and managing short links, including support for custom domains. Small teams use it to hand out compact, trackable links. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.

04 · AUTH AND DATA

How Short Menu connects.

Users add their Short Menu api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.

The same Short Menu connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →

AUTH: API key
CREDENTIALS: Per-tenant encrypted vault
MODEL SEES: Results only, never credentials
AUDIT LOG: Every call, on every plan

07 · FAQ

Short Menu and Arc0, answered.

Q01

Can I use Short Menu with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?

Yes. Connect Short Menu to Arc0 once, then add your Arc0 MCP URL to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or any other remote-MCP client. Each assistant only gets the Short Menu actions you allow.

Q02

How do users connect Short Menu?

Users add their Short Menu api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.

Q03

Which Short Menu actions can my agent take?

3 in total: 1 read, 1 write and 1 destructive, such as “create Short Link”. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.

Q04

Can I stop my agent from deleting things in Short Menu?

Yes. Actions like “delete Short Link” are graded destructive. Set destructive actions to deny, or to ask so the user approves each one, and blocked calls still show up on the audit log.

Q05

Can my own backend call Short Menu too?

Yes. The same Short Menu connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
