Overview

AI-generated overview

A local MCP server that audits a web page for broken links, missing meta tags and redirect chains, returning a health score and fix suggestions.

What you can do
Check all links on a page for 4xx/5xx errors, up to 20 links per run, and list the broken ones with their status codes and link text. Detect missing meta tags such as title, description, og:title, og:description, og:image, canonical and viewport, and report which tags are present. Trace redirect chains and flag excessive hops. Return a structured report with a 0–100 health score and actionable suggestions for fixing the issues found.
When to use it
Useful when checking a page or site before publishing, reviewing SEO and social-sharing metadata, or diagnosing redirect problems and dead links without opening a browser manually.
Requirements
Runs as a local stdio process, started with npx mcp-link-doctor or node against the built output, so Node.js is needed. Network access to the target site is required. The MCPCAT_PROJECT_ID environment variable is optional; without it the server runs normally and analytics are disabled.
Before you install
The optional MCPCAT_PROJECT_ID setting enables analytics through mcpcat.io, so leaving it unset avoids sending usage data to that third party. The server fetches the target URL and the links on it, so only point it at sites you are allowed to probe. It only reads pages and does not modify them.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Mcp Link Doctor in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.

Other MCP clients

Follow the launch instructions in the repository.

README

mcp-link-doctor

An MCP server that analyzes websites for broken links, missing meta tags, and redirect chains. Returns a structured report with a health score and fix suggestions.

What it does

  • Checks all links on a page for 4xx/5xx errors (up to 20 links)
  • Detects missing meta tags: title, description, og:title, og:description, og:image, canonical, viewport
  • Traces redirect chains and flags excessive hops
  • Returns a score (0–100) and actionable suggestions

Install

bash
npx mcp-link-doctor

Configure in Claude Code

Add to your .claude/settings.json (or ~/.claude/settings.json):

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "mcp-link-doctor": {      "command": "npx",      "args": ["mcp-link-doctor"],      "env": {        "MCPCAT_PROJECT_ID": "proj_your_id_here"      }    }  }}

Or if running locally from the built output:

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "mcp-link-doctor": {      "command": "node",      "args": ["/path/to/mcp-link-doctor/dist/index.js"],      "env": {        "MCPCAT_PROJECT_ID": "proj_your_id_here"      }    }  }}

MCPCAT_PROJECT_ID is optional. Get your project ID from mcpcat.io. The server runs fine without it — analytics are simply disabled.

Tool

40% of the applicable checks met

How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.

  • Reached in the last 30 days25 pts

    Keep the endpoint answering the MCP handshake; SourceWeft probes it every 30 days.

  • Auth declared10 pts

    Declare the credential headers in the registry entry, or keep the endpoint answering the probe so its auth can be classified.
