🤔 What Is This?
This is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server: a bridge that gives AI assistants direct, live access to your SEO data platforms.
Instead of:
- Logging into 4 dashboards
- Exporting CSVs
- Copy-pasting data into ChatGPT/Claude
- Waiting for reports
You just open Claude Desktop and ask:
“Why did my traffic drop last week and which pages are responsible?”
The MCP server fetches the live data, runs the analysis, and gives you an answer in seconds. No spreadsheets. No exports. No switching tabs.
🔌 Works With Claude Desktop (Primary) + Other MCP Clients
Important: This server uses the Model Context Protocol (MCP), an open standard by Anthropic. It is primarily designed for Claude Desktop, which has the most complete and polished MCP support. It also works with other MCP-compatible clients:
| Client | Support Level | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Claude Desktop ⭐ | ✅ Full | Recommended - best experience |
| Cursor IDE | ✅ Full | Works via .cursor/mcp.json |
| VS Code (Copilot) | 🔶 Partial | MCP support varies by extension |
| Windsurf | ✅ Full | Supports MCP natively |
| Other MCP Clients | 🔶 Varies | Must support MCP stdio transport |
Not compatible with: ChatGPT, Gemini, raw API calls, or browser-based AI tools, as those do not support the MCP protocol.
✨ What You Can Do (Magic Prompts)
Paste any of these into Claude Desktop after setup:
"My traffic dropped this week, find exactly when it started and which pages are responsible."
"Find keywords where I rank 8-15 with over 1,000 impressions. These are my quick wins."
"Are any of my pages cannibalizing each other for the same keyword? Which should be primary?"
"Compare my Google vs Bing performance. Where am I stronger on Bing?"
"Run a full SEO health check. Give me 3 high-impact actions for this week."
"Which of my top pages have high impressions but terrible CTR? Fix the titles."
"Correlate my PageSpeed scores with ranking drops. Is slow speed hurting me?"
