AI agents and MCP

Your AI agent does the SEO work with real data and firm limits.

Connect Claude, Codex, Cursor or VS Code to Crawl Foundry. Your agent reads saved evidence, researches keywords and competitors, checks site health, builds plans and drafts content, always in one workspace and within your budget and approvals.

Example session

Find the three best keyword opportunities for this workspace. Use saved data first and stay within my agent budget.

  1. seo_get_workspace_overviewConfirms the workspace, balance and limits
  2. seo_research_keywordsReads saved keyword evidence and fetches fresh data only where it is missing
  3. seo_find_opportunitiesRanks opportunities by demand, difficulty and fit
  4. seo_build_seo_planTurns the top three into a plan you can keep working on

Three opportunities, each with its evidence and a next step.

What your agent can do

Five kinds of SEO work in one workspace

Each task is a defined agent tool with known permissions and a known cost class, so you always know what the agent may do.

  1. Understand the workspace and costs

    Read workspace context, connected sources, balance, limits and running operations.

    • Workspace overview
    • Balance and limits
    • Running operations
  2. Research and analyze

    Keywords, domains, competitors, rankings, site health, backlinks, search performance and AI visibility.

    • Keyword research
    • Competitor comparison
    • AI visibility
  3. Plan and organize

    Turn evidence into opportunities, SEO plans, organized keyword lists and tasks that last beyond one chat.

    • SEO opportunities
    • SEO plan
    • Organized keyword lists
  4. Execute with safeguards

    Manage rank tracking and Site Audit, create and improve content, add internal links, and publish only after explicit approval.

    • SEO content
    • Internal links
    • Publishing after approval
  5. Monitor and verify

    Follow long-running work and measure whether a change had the effect you expected.

    • Operation status
    • Verified results
    • Cancel a run

The MCP server page shows how to connect your tool in a few minutes. When the agent finds opportunities, your team prioritizes the work in the Action Center.

Firm limits

Your agent works for you, not around you

  • One workspace per session

    The agent selects exactly one workspace and confirms it before it starts. Data from different clients never mixes.

  • Access you can revoke

    Extra permissions are granted once, for one task, for a set time or until revoked, and you can withdraw them at any time.

  • A budget with hard ceilings

    Set a monthly limit for the organization, a budget per workspace and a maximum per action. Crawl Foundry reserves at most the quoted price and releases the rest.

  • Protected actions stay protected

    No budget unlocks publishing or changes to deployments, DNS, users or billing. Publishing always needs your explicit approval.

  • Saved data is free to read

    Reading stored evidence costs nothing. Fresh data and generation use the same EUR balance as the app, with no separate API subscription.

  • Evidence instead of guesses

    Answers come from your workspace data and fresh measurements, with data gaps named, so the agent does not have to invent search volumes.

Ready-made workflows

Start from a proven workflow

MCP clients that support prompts list these workflows. Each one guides the agent through the right tools in the right order.

  1. Diagnose the SEO workspace

    Check sources, freshness and gaps, then name the most useful next steps.

  2. Build a keyword growth plan

    From research to organized keyword lists and a verified ranking baseline.

  3. Triage technical SEO health

    Sort Site Audit findings by impact and plan the fixes.

  4. Create evidence-backed content

    Brief, outline and draft content grounded in your workspace evidence.

  5. Run a full SEO growth cycle

    Research, plan, execute and verify in one guided run.

Results you can see

Interactive views right in the chat

In clients that display MCP Apps, results open as interactive views instead of plain text.

  • Rank tracking trend
  • Keyword opportunity matrix
  • Site Audit health
  • Search performance
  • AI visibility and citations

Questions about AI agents

Which AI agents can I connect?

Crawl Foundry offers guided setup for Claude, Codex, Cursor and VS Code. Any other MCP client that supports Streamable HTTP connects with the MCP address.

Can the agent buy data on its own?

Only within an agent budget you set. Without one, it reads saved data for free and paid actions wait for your approval.

Can the agent publish content?

Only after your explicit approval. Publishing is a protected action that no budget unlocks.

What does it cost?

Connecting is free on every plan. Saved reads cost nothing; fresh data and generation use your EUR balance, which you can top up once from €9.99. There is no separate API subscription.

Can my agent see another client's data?

No. Each session is bound to exactly one workspace that the agent must confirm, and access follows the permissions of that workspace.
