Connect Claude / Cursor / any\nMCP client and get **18 SEO tools** \u2014 search analytics, URL inspection, sitemaps,\nthe Indexing API, site verification, ownership management, and PageSpeed / Core Web\nVitals \u2014 all under your own Google account.\n\n## \u2699\ufe0f How it works\n1. The **MCP Server Trigger** exposes this workflow as an MCP endpoint (one URL).\n2. Every tool is an **HTTP Request Tool** calling a Google API, all using **one**\n Google credential.\n3. Point your MCP client at the endpoint URL \u2192 all 18 tools appear automatically.\n\n## \ud83d\udee0\ufe0f Setup (~10 min)\n1. **Google Cloud** \u2192 enable these APIs: Google Search Console API,\n Web Search Indexing API, Site Verification API, PageSpeed Insights API.\n2. **Create a credential** \u2014 either a **Google OAuth2** credential (acts as you \u2192\n you see everything in your own Search Console) or a **Service Account** (headless).\n Scopes required:\n \u2022 https://www.googleapis.com/auth/webmasters\n \u2022 https://www.googleapis.com/auth/indexing\n \u2022 https://www.googleapis.com/auth/siteverification\n \u2022 openid \u2190 needed for the PageSpeed tool\n3. **Select that credential** on every tool node (they all share one).\n4. Make your account / service account an **Owner** of the property\n (required for the Indexing API).\n5. **Publish**, open the **MCP Server Trigger**, copy the **MCP URL**, add it in\n your MCP client. Done.\n\n## \ud83e\uddf0 The 18 tools\n\ud83c\udfe0 Site management \u2014 list_sites, get_site, add_site, delete_site,\n get_verification_token, verify_site\n\ud83d\udc65 Ownership & access \u2014 list_owners, set_owners\n\ud83d\uddfa\ufe0f Sitemaps \u2014 list_sitemaps, get_sitemap, submit_sitemap, delete_sitemap\n\u26a1 Indexing API \u2014 indexing_publish, indexing_batch_publish, indexing_get_metadata\n\ud83d\udd0d Inspection & Analytics \u2014 inspect_url, query_search_analytics (dimension filters +\n paging), pagespeed_analyze (Core Web Vitals)\n\n## \ud83d\udcdd Good to know\n\u2022 Google can't filter analytics by position/CTR (they're metrics) \u2014 request rows and\n filter those in your analysis (e.g. \"position 10\u201320\").\n\u2022 Indexing API is officially for JobPosting/BroadcastEvent; for normal pages it acts\n as a recrawl nudge.\n\u2022 Search Console \"Full/Restricted USERS\" have no API \u2014 only OWNERS are API-manageable.\n\u2022 Adding an owner grants real access: they open their own Search Console \u2192 Add\n property \u2192 it auto-verifies them as Owner.\n"
