Google Search Console MCP server
LiveYour real Google queries and pages, next to the audit findings.
Connect your own Google Search Console (read-only) and ask which queries are close to page one, how a page's clicks and position changed, and how that lines up with its Site Audit findings. Data is read from Google when you ask; we do not store it.
Google Search Console is a hosted MCP server with 4 tools. The Claude Code command is on this page. Steps for Cursor and ChatGPT, and which clients we have tested, are in the client guides.

Requirements
- • A Google account with access to a verified Search Console property.
- • Connect Google once on the Search Console page (read-only permission).
- • While Google reviews the app, only invited test accounts can connect: ask us to add yours.
Limitations
- • Google's figures are final about 3 days after the fact, so periods end 3 days ago.
- • Google returns its top rows per request, so totals cover the rows returned, not every long-tail query.
- • Until Google verifies the app, the Google sign-in shows an 'unverified app' notice and is limited to invited test accounts.
- • Read-only: nothing is changed in your Search Console.
