Setup

1. Google API Credentials

OAuth (recommended)

1. Go to Google Cloud Console
2. Enable the Search Console API and Web Search Indexing API
3. Create an OAuth 2.0 Client ID (Desktop app)
4. Download client_secrets.json

Service Account

1. Create a service account in Google Cloud Console
2. Download the JSON key file
3. Add the service account email to your GSC properties

2. Install

git clone https://github.com/GiorgiKemo/mcp-gsc.git
cd mcp-gsc
python -m venv .venv

# Activate:
# macOS/Linux: source .venv/bin/activate
# Windows:     .venv\Scripts\activate

pip install -r requirements.txt

3. Configure Your MCP Client

Claude Code (~/.claude/settings.json)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "seo-audit": {
      "command": "/path/to/mcp-gsc/.venv/bin/python",
      "args": ["/path/to/mcp-gsc/gsc_server.py"],
      "env": {
        "GSC_OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRETS_FILE": "/path/to/client_secrets.json"
      }
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop (claude_desktop_config.json)

Same JSON structure — see Claude Desktop MCP docs for config file location.

4. Optional: CrUX API Key

For Core Web Vitals data, set CRUX_API_KEY in the env block:

"env": {
  "GSC_OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRETS_FILE": "/path/to/client_secrets.json",
  "CRUX_API_KEY": "your-google-api-key"
}

Get one from Google AI Studio or the Cloud Console with CrUX API enabled.
