MCP server

The SEO MCP server for Claude, Codex, Cursor and VS Code.

One address connects your AI agent to Crawl Foundry. You sign in, confirm the workspace, and the agent can use your saved SEO data and approved actions, with no API key to copy.

MCP address · Streamable HTTP

https://app.crawlfoundry.com/api/mcp

Works in any compatible MCP client. The address covers every workspace you can access; the agent picks one per session.

Setup

Connected in three steps

  1. Add the connection

    In Crawl Foundry, open the Agent Platform and choose your tool. Cursor and VS Code open with the address filled in; Claude and Codex get a ready configuration.

  2. Sign in and confirm the workspace

    Sign in with your Crawl Foundry account when your tool asks. Check the workspace and the requested permissions before you allow access.

  3. Make a safe first request

    Start with a request that buys nothing and changes nothing, then build from there.

Example first request

Show me the saved SEO overview for this workspace. Do not buy new data or change anything.

The AI agents page shows what the connection is for. Costs follow the same pricing and balance rules as the app.

Security

Access that stays inside its lines

  • OAuth as standard

    You sign in and approve the connection in Crawl Foundry. No API key ends up in a chat or a config file.

  • One workspace per session

    Each session works in exactly one workspace. With more than 25 workspaces, use a workspace-specific address.

  • Permissions and budgets

    Extra access and paid actions follow grants and agent budgets that you control, with a hard limit per action.

  • Admins stay in control

    Only organization owners and admins manage connections, approvals and budgets.

Costs

One balance, clear cost classes

MCP and API use the same organization EUR balance as the app. There is no separate subscription and no blanket API discount.

Saved data
Free to read
Fresh data and generation
Billed by use from your EUR balance
Larger paid actions
Priced first, then run after your approval or within your agent budget

For developers

The same capabilities over REST

Build your own integrations on the versioned REST API with its OpenAPI description. Every API client is bound to its workspace and permissions and is never anonymous.

  • Versioned REST operations with an OpenAPI description
  • API keys that organization admins create and revoke
  • Same balance and cost classes as MCP

Questions about the MCP server

What is an MCP server?

The Model Context Protocol is an open standard that lets AI agents use tools and data from other services. The Crawl Foundry MCP server gives your agent access to your SEO workspace.

Do I need an API key?

Not for MCP. The standard connection uses OAuth, so you sign in instead of copying a key. API keys are for your own automation over the REST API.

Does it work on the free plan?

Yes. The MCP server is included on every plan. The free plan comes with 3 workspaces and €1.00 of balance a month, and reading saved data costs nothing.

My tool is not listed. Can I still connect?

Yes, if it supports MCP over Streamable HTTP. Paste the MCP address into its connection settings and sign in when it asks.
