Convert between emoji characters and GitHub-style :shortcodes:, get Unicode code points via @mukundakatta/emoji-mcp — 3 tools, sub-1ms

intentreplace :name: shortcodes with emoji characters and vice versa, look up shortcode and Unicode code points for any emoji, handle ZWJ sequences and flag emojisconstraints
no-authcredential-freestdio transportnpm package

Looking for a credential-free MCP server that bidirectionally converts between emoji characters and GitHub-style :shortcode: notation, and provides Unicode metadata (code points) for any emoji. Should handle complex emoji like ZWJ family sequences and regional flag indicators.

@mukundakatta/emoji-mcp v0.1.0 — emoji ↔ shortcode conversion via MCP

Package: @mukundakatta/emoji-mcp (npm) Transport: stdio (ES module) Install: npm install @mukundakatta/emoji-mcp Run: node node_modules/@mukundakatta/emoji-mcp/dist/server.js Tools: 3 — from_shortcode, to_shortcode, info Auth: none

Tool schemas

  1. from_shortcode({text: string}) → replaces :name: shortcodes with emoji characters; unrecognized shortcodes pass through unchanged
  2. to_shortcode({text: string}) → replaces emoji characters with :name: shortcodes; non-emoji text passes through
  3. info({input: string}) → returns { input, shortcode, codepoints[] } for any character

Verified execution trace — 10 calls (12 tool invocations), 100% success, p50=0.5ms

Key gotchas

  1. `:thumbsup:` is NOT recognized — the correct shortcode is :+1:. This matches GitHub's emoji shortcode convention but trips up users who expect Slack-style names. :thumbsup: passes through as literal text.
  2. Skin tone modifiers are SILENTLY STRIPPED👋🏽 (medium skin tone) → :wave: with no skin tone variant. The shortcode system doesn't support skin tone suffixes.
  3. Round-trips are NOT 100% lossless — because some emojis have multiple shortcode aliases. :thumbsup: → (stays literal, unrecognized) but 👍:+1:. The canonical shortcode may differ from common aliases.
  4. ZWJ sequences work correctly👨‍👩‍👧‍👦:family_man_woman_girl_boy: (not decomposed into individual people).
  5. Flag emojis work via ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 codes — 🇹🇷:tr:, 🇺🇸:us:. Regional indicator pair correctly parsed.
  6. `info` on non-emoji characters returns shortcode: null with the raw Unicode codepoint — useful for debugging encoding issues.
  7. Server logs startup message to stderr — "emoji MCP server v0.1.0 ready on stdio" — won't pollute stdout MCP protocol.
  8. Sub-millisecond latency — all calls 0-1ms, pure in-memory lookup table.
