Growth engineer for your coding agent: site fixes, content PRs, indexing and AI search tracking.
Overview
Remote MCP server that turns a coding agent into a growth engineer: site audits, content PRs, indexing, AI-search tracking and paid growth tests.
- What you can do
- Audit the site and connected accounts, then plan and prioritize growth moves
- Fix the site and ship blog, glossary, comparison and tool pages as pull requests
- Get pages indexed on Google and Bing, and track AI crawler and ChatGPT referral traffic
- Answer analytics questions, run A/B tests, and draft launches, directory listings, community replies and Gmail drafts
- Run paid boosts and studies on X, Meta, Reddit and TikTok, with the agent asking before spending
- Audit and improve an iOS App Store listing, and produce slideshows, videos and UGC ads
- When to use it
- For founders and small teams whose coding agent already ships product features and who want the same agent to handle SEO, AI-search visibility, content, launches and small paid tests on their own site repo. Best suited to Next.js, Astro, Nuxt, SvelteKit, Hugo or plain HTML sites.
- Requirements
- A remote endpoint at api.shipfound.co over streamable HTTP, with OAuth sign-in once per machine (or an API key starting with wl_ sent as an Authorization bearer header, for CI or browserless machines). A Claude Code or Codex plugin install is optional. The agent's own Claude or ChatGPT subscription runs the work, and a prepaid Shipfound balance covers search data and visibility runs.
Installation
In SourceWeft
- Open Shipfound in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
- Connect the required credentials. They are stored privately and never shown on public pages.
- Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.
Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.
Use with an agent
Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.
Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/co.shipfound%2Fshipfound/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.Other MCP clients
Add this to your client's mcpServers config. The client completes OAuth sign-in on first connect.

Shipfound
Your coding agent ships features. Shipfound makes it ship customers.
Shipfound turns Claude Code or Codex into your growth engineer. It checks what you have access to, fixes your site for Google and AI search, ships blog, glossary and comparison pages as pull requests, gets your pages indexed on Google and Bing, and installs tracking that shows when GPTBot, PerplexityBot and ClaudeBot read your pages and when ChatGPT sends you a visitor. The Shipfound server checks every result itself, and labels each one Verified or Claimed.
This repo is the plugin for both hosts: one skill with its routines, the /shipfound:* commands for Claude Code, the Codex plugin manifest, the MCP server config, and crawler beacon snippets. The data, verification and results app live at https://www.shipfound.co.
Install
Pick your agent. Both get the same skill, the same routines and the same remote MCP server, and both sign in once per machine.
Claude Code
Then open a new Claude Code session in your site's repo and run /shipfound:audit. From then on, start each day with /shipfound:grow: it checks what changed and what is still failing, then offers one move. The shell commands work for every Claude Code surface (terminal, VS Code, Cursor, desktop). In the terminal CLI you can also install from inside a session with /plugin marketplace add shipfound/shipfound and /plugin install shipfound@shipfound.
Sign in once: the first Shipfound command opens a sign-in page on shipfound.co in your browser. Pick your site and choose Allow; that session carries on, and every later session on this machine starts signed in. One sign-in covers all your products: each session works on the product whose repo it is in. The plugin keeps a random secret for this machine in the macOS Keychain (elsewhere in ~/.config/shipfound/device, readable only by you) and sends it with each call; Shipfound keeps only its hash. To sign out on this machine, run sh scripts/device.sh forget from the plugin folder; to sign out everywhere, revoke the key in the results app (Settings, MCP connection).
Codex
codex mcp login opens your browser to sign in (OAuth). Then start a new Codex thread in your site's repo and ask: "Run the Shipfound audit." From then on, start each day by asking: "What should I do today?" In the ChatGPT desktop app you can also install it from Plugins once the marketplace is added; it shows up under Shipfound.
Codex has no plugin slash commands, so you ask in words ("fix the site", "get us indexed", "status") and the skill runs the matching routine. To call the skill by name, type $shipfound:shipfound.
MCP server only (no plugin). If you would rather not install the plugin:
Then copy AGENTS.md into your repo. Full steps: docs/codex.md.
Sign in with an API key instead
For CI or a machine without a browser, make a key in the Shipfound app (Settings, MCP server; it starts with wl_). Each key carries a daily spending cap ($10 by default).
-
Claude Code: add the server with the key as a fixed header, and use it in place of the plugin's server (turn that one off in
/mcp; the skill and routines keep working): -
Codex plugin: the plugin's server signs in with OAuth only. Add
codex mcp add shipfound-key --url https://api.shipfound.co/mcp --bearer-token-env-var SHIPFOUND_API_KEYwithSHIPFOUND_API_KEYexported, and turn the plugin's server off (docs/codex.md). -
Codex, MCP server only:
codex mcp add shipfound --url https://api.shipfound.co/mcp --bearer-token-env-var SHIPFOUND_API_KEY, withSHIPFOUND_API_KEYexported.
Point at another server
-
Claude Code: the MCP server defaults to
https://api.shipfound.co/mcp. SetSHIPFOUND_API_URLto use another API origin (staging, orhttp://localhost:4000when developing Shipfound itself); the plugin appends/mcp/plugin. -
Codex: the plugin's server URL is fixed (Codex does not expand variables in plugin config). For staging or local work, add your server by hand (
codex mcp add shipfound-dev --url http://localhost:4000/mcp) and turn the plugin's server off in~/.codex/config.toml:
Routines
Each routine is a file in skills/shipfound/routines/. Claude Code runs it as a command; in Codex you ask for it.
You need two: /shipfound:audit on day 1, then /shipfound:grow every day after. Grow reads what happened since your last session, what is due to verify and what is still failing on your live site, then offers the one move worth making, with its price. It does not offer the same move two days running, and a move you decline waits a week. The rest are there when you want something specific.
Supported stacks for pull requests: Next.js, Astro, Nuxt, SvelteKit, Hugo and plain HTML. Other stacks get the audit, indexing and analytics, and no code changes.
What it never does
- Never posts, publishes or sends without you. It fills the box; you press the button.
- Never merges code. Every change is a pull request on its own branch, with a preview.
- Never uses accounts you don't own, and never creates accounts for you.
- No fake reviews, testimonials or quotes.
- No karma farming, warmup automation or vote manipulation.
- No bulk email. Gmail drafts only, one to one, at most 20 a day.
- No Wikipedia or Wikidata edits about you or your competitors.
- Never calls something done until the Shipfound server has checked it live.
Pricing
Your agent's work runs on your own Claude or ChatGPT subscription. Sign up and everything is open, with no plans: you pay as you go from a prepaid balance, for search data and AI visibility runs. You get $10 free, no card, once your first project is confirmed (it lasts 30 days); top-ups of $10, $25, $50 or $100 never expire, and auto top-up is off unless you turn it on. Analytics (100k events a month) and A/B tests are free, and so are the audit and the first visibility check. The agent states the price before any step over $1, and before every study, and waits for your yes. Prices: https://www.shipfound.co. Our own numbers, every answer included: https://www.shipfound.co/proof/shipfound.
Privacy
- The agent works on your machine. Your code is not uploaded to Shipfound; only what the agent records through the MCP tools is sent (the audit result, URLs of PRs, pages and listings, and drafts you check with
check_content). - Browser and Gmail work happens in your own Chrome (Claude in Chrome, or the Codex Browser plugin with its Chrome extension) and through your own Gmail connector. Shipfound never sees your passwords or cookies.
- tracking.js is cookieless by default: it stores nothing in the browser and the tracker drops the IP after deriving a daily visitor id. Attribution mode keeps a first-party id for 13 months and needs consent where the law requires it. Whether you need a banner depends on where you and your visitors are.
- The crawler beacon sends only requests whose user agent is on the crawler list in snippets/crawlers.json. Requests from people are never sent by the beacon.
Repo layout
Next.js sites use the npm package @shipfound/next for the beacon.
