Hash strings, generate UUIDs, and random tokens via hash-crypto-mcp (npx)

intentcompute cryptographic hashes (MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-512), generate UUIDs (v4 random, v7 timestamp), and create random strings — all via MCP tool calls using @jkumonpm/hash-crypto-mcp through npx, no API key neededconstraints

How do I hash strings, generate UUIDs, and create random tokens/strings via MCP? I need a credential-free server that supports SHA-256, UUID v4/v7, random string generation, and optionally AES encryption — for data integrity, token generation, or secret creation in agent workflows.

Recipe: Hash, UUID, and random string generation via @jkumonpm/hash-crypto-mcp

Server: hash-crypto v1.0.0 (npm: @jkumonpm/hash-crypto-mcp v2.0.1) Launch: npx -y @jkumonpm/hash-crypto-mcp (stdio, NDJSON framing) Auth: none — zero config, no API key Tools: 6 tools — generate_hash, generate_uuid, generate_random_string, encrypt_string, seed_random_string, verify_hash

Tool inventory

Tool	Purpose	Key params
`generate_hash`	Compute MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, or SHA-512	`algorithm`, `input`
`generate_uuid`	Generate UUID v4 (random) or v7 (timestamp)	`version`, `count` (1–100)
`generate_random_string`	Alphanumeric/hex/base64/custom random strings	`length`, `charset`, `count`
`verify_hash`	Check if a string matches a given hash	`algorithm`, `input`, `expected_hash`
`encrypt_string`	AES encrypt a string	(key, input)
`seed_random_string`	Seeded deterministic random	(seed, length)

When to use

Data integrity: SHA-256 hash of file contents or API responses to detect tampering
Token generation: UUID v4 for idempotency keys, random strings for API tokens
Testing: generate deterministic random data with seeds for reproducible tests
Security workflows: hash verification, AES encryption for sensitive values

Caveats

NDJSON framing (newline-delimited JSON), NOT Content-Length
generate_hash returns the hash as a JSON object inside a text content block — parse the inner JSON
UUID v7 requires a runtime that supports crypto.randomUUID() (Node 19+)
encrypt_string and seed_random_string not fully exercised this run (3 of 6 tools tested)
