Overview

AI-generated overview

A local, read-only MCP server that lets an assistant query Google Search Console data: properties, Search Analytics, sitemaps and URL index status.

What you can do
List the Search Console properties the service account can read and list sitemaps for a property or read one sitemap. Query Search Analytics with filters, hourly data and automatic pagination past the 25,000-row cap. Inspect a single URL's index status, or inspect many URLs in a batch with client-side throttling. Every tool returns structured JSON with status, summary, result, proof and warnings, and partial results indicate where to continue.
When to use it
Useful for SEO and site-owner work where an assistant should pull search performance, sitemap and indexing data from Google Search Console without manual exports. Suited to read-only reporting and diagnostics rather than making changes in Search Console.
Requirements
Runs locally over stdio, installed with uvx from the PyPI package or as a Claude Desktop .mcpb bundle. Needs a Google Cloud project with the Search Console API enabled and a service-account JSON key, whose path is set in GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS. Each Search Console property must be shared with the service account email. Optional variables set log level, retry backoff and API base URLs.
Before you install
Requires a Google service-account private key file; keep it protected and never set the test-only GSC_TEST_ACCESS_TOKEN in normal use. Access is read-only, but granting the service account access to a property exposes that property's data to the assistant. URL inspection is quota-limited (600 per minute, 2,000 per day per property) and the server does not track daily usage across calls, so you must count it yourself.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Google Search Console MCP 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.

README

Google Search Console MCP

Read-only MCP server for Google Search Console. Five tools cover the read surface: properties, Search Analytics (filters, auto-pagination past the 25,000-row cap, hourly data), sitemaps, URL inspection, batch inspection with throttling. We run this server in production for every SEO client.

Install

Claude Code:

bash
claude mcp add gsc -e GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS=/path/to/service-account.json -- uvx scalably-gsc-mcp

Codex:

bash
codex mcp add gsc --env GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS=/path/to/service-account.json -- uvx scalably-gsc-mcp

Claude Desktop: download gsc-mcp.mcpb from the latest GitHub release and open it.

Setup

  1. In Google Cloud, create or pick a project and enable the Google Search Console API on it (APIs and Services, Library).
  2. Create a service account in that project and download its JSON key.
  3. Add the service account's email as a user on each Search Console property you want to query (Settings, Users and permissions). Full or restricted permission both work for reading.

No OAuth consent screen is needed; the server authenticates as the service account with the webmasters.readonly scope.

Tools (5)

ToolWhat it does
gsc_list_sitesList the Search Console properties the service account can read
gsc_query_search_analyticsQuery Search Analytics with filters, auto-pagination and hourly data
gsc_list_sitemapsList sitemaps for a property or read one sitemap
gsc_inspect_urlInspect one URL's index status
gsc_batch_inspect_urlsInspect many URLs with client-side throttling

Configuration

VariableRequiredPurpose
GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALSyesPath to a Google service-account JSON file with the Search Console read-only scope; share each property with the service account email
GSC_LOG_LEVELnoINFO (default) or DEBUG
GSC_RETRY_BASE_SECONDSnoBase delay in seconds for the retry backoff on transient API errors (default 1)
GSC_WEBMASTERS_BASE, GSC_SEARCHCONSOLE_BASEnoOverride the two Google API base URLs (used by the test suite to point at a local fake; leave unset in normal use)
GSC_TEST_ACCESS_TOKENnoTest-suite only: a literal bearer token that bypasses the service account. Never set it in normal use

Reply shape

Every tool returns JSON with status (succeeded, partial, no_op), operation, summary, target, result, proof, warnings, recovery. Failures surface as a tool error whose text is <code>: <message> <hint>. A partial status with proof.nextStartRow means: continue from that row.

Limits

25,000 rows per Search Analytics call (the server auto-paginates past it up to max_rows). URL inspection: Google allows 600 per minute and 2,000 per day per property. The server paces batch inspection client-side (default 8 requests per second) and warns when a batch exceeds the daily quota; it does not track daily usage across calls, so keep your own count.

Verify

Each release lists the package version, the .mcpb sha256 and the production commit it was derived from in CHANGELOG.md. CI runs the tests and a clean install of the built wheel on every push.
