Google Search Console: 20 AI Tools for SEO Analytics, Indexing & Performance Tracking
SEO monitoring is tedious. You're checking Search Console for rankings, analyzing traffic drops, hunting down indexing issues. Trying to figure out why some pages rank but don't get clicks. It's a lot of clicking around different reports and trying to connect the dots.
So we built 20 MCP tools for Google Search Console. Now you can manage your entire SEO workflow through conversation with Claude. Check rankings, diagnose indexing problems, find optimization opportunities, track trends—all by just asking. No more jumping between reports.
Check Rankings, Diagnose Issues, Find Opportunities
Check performance without opening Search Console. "Show me top queries this month" or "What pages are ranking but not getting clicks?" The AI queries your Search Console data and shows you the results. No need to log in and click through different reports.
Diagnose indexing issues fast. "Why isn't my new blog post indexed?" or "Check 50 URLs for indexing problems." The AI inspects URLs, finds the issues, and tells you exactly what's wrong. Works with batch inspections and smart sampling too—no need to check URLs one by one.
Manage sitemaps easily. "List all my sitemaps" or "Submit a new sitemap for my blog section." The AI handles sitemap submission and checks status. You can see which sitemaps have errors and which are working fine.
Find SEO opportunities. "Find pages with high impressions but low CTR" or "Show me query cannibalization." The AI identifies pages ranking on page 2-3 that could improve with better titles. It finds queries where multiple pages compete and splits your ranking signals.
Track trends and compare periods. "Compare this week vs last week" or "Show me traffic trends for the last 30 days." The AI pulls time-series data and shows you what's changing. Perfect for measuring the impact of site changes or content updates.
The AI figures out which tools to use based on what you ask. You don't need to know Search Console's interface or remember which report shows what data.
Three Real Examples of AI-Powered SEO
Say you published a new blog post and it's not showing up in search. You ask: "Why isn't my new post at example.com/blog/new-article indexed?"
Behind the scenes, the AI uses inspect_url to check the indexing status. It sees the page is indexed but ranking low. Then it uses query_search_analytics to see what queries it ranks for. Turns out it's ranking position 45 for a few keywords. Not great. The AI uses find_ranking_opportunities to identify that improving the title and meta description could boost CTR. It tells you: "Your post is indexed but ranking low. It's getting impressions but no clicks. Try optimizing the title for better CTR."
Want to see if your site redesign hurt traffic? "Did my site redesign hurt search traffic?"
The AI uses compare_time_periods to compare the week before and after your redesign. It shows which pages lost traffic and which gained. Then it uses get_traffic_trends to show the daily impact—traffic dropped 30% the day after launch, then recovered over the next week. The AI explains: "Traffic dropped initially but recovered. Your product pages lost some rankings, but your blog pages improved." Good news overall.
Or maybe you want to check if your sitemap is working. "Check if my sitemap is being processed correctly."
The AI uses list_sitemaps to see all your submitted sitemaps. It uses get_sitemap_status to check for errors—finds one sitemap has warnings about URLs that can't be accessed. Then it uses get_indexed_pages to verify which pages are actually indexed vs just submitted. The AI reports: "Your main sitemap is working fine, but your blog sitemap has 12 URLs returning 404 errors. Those pages won't be indexed until you fix the URLs."
20 Tools Organized Into 5 Categories
We organized the 20 tools into focused categories so you can understand what each one does.
Site Management (2 tools): List your Search Console properties and inspect individual URLs. Connect to your site and check indexing status, mobile usability, and rich results. Basic stuff to get started.
Search Analytics (3 tools): Core performance data. Query analytics with filters, get top queries, get top pages. Everything you need to understand how your site performs in search.
Sitemap Management (4 tools): Submit and monitor sitemaps. List all sitemaps, check status for errors, submit new ones, delete old ones. Keep your sitemaps organized and working.
Indexing Tools (3 tools): Diagnose indexing problems. Get confirmed indexed pages, batch inspect multiple URLs, sample inspect to find patterns. Figure out why pages aren't indexing.
Advanced Analytics (8 tools): Deep insights and optimization. Country and device performance, rich results tracking, image search performance, ranking opportunities, traffic trends, cannibalization detection, time period comparisons. All the advanced stuff that helps you optimize. This is where it gets interesting.
You can use all 20 tools or just the ones you need. Each tool handles the Search Console API complexity automatically—date ranges, dimension combinations, rate limits, all of it.
Common SEO Workflows Made Simple
Weekly SEO report: "Show me top queries, top pages, and traffic trends for the last 7 days." Get a snapshot of your search performance without opening multiple reports. The AI pulls everything together and presents it clearly.
Indexing audit: "Sample 50 URLs from my sitemap and check their indexing status." Find out which pages are indexed and which have problems. The AI uses smart sampling to check a representative set without hitting API limits.
Content optimization: "Find pages ranking 11-30 that could improve with better titles." These are your easy wins—pages already ranking but not getting clicks. Improve the titles and meta descriptions to boost traffic. Sometimes a small change makes a big difference.
International SEO: "Show me traffic by country and device type." Understand where your traffic comes from and how mobile vs desktop performs. Identify opportunities in new markets.
Cannibalization fix: "Find queries where multiple pages are competing." When multiple pages rank for the same query, they split ranking signals. The AI finds these and helps you decide which page to optimize or consolidate.
Redesign impact: "Compare traffic before and after my site redesign." See exactly which pages gained or lost traffic. Measure the real impact of your changes.
The AI handles all the technical stuff—API calls, date formatting, dimension combinations, pagination, rate limiting. You just describe what you need.
Connect Your Search Console Account
Enable the Google Search Console MCP bundle in your MCPBundles account. You'll need a Google account with Search Console access.
The setup uses OAuth2—standard Google authentication. Click connect, authorize access to Search Console, and you're done. Your credentials stay encrypted in our database. That's it.
Then start asking:
- "List my Search Console properties"
- "Show me top queries this month"
- "Check if example.com/new-page is indexed"
- "Find pages with low CTR"
The AI picks the right tools automatically. All the technical stuff—authentication, API endpoint selection, error handling, result formatting—happens behind the scenes.
What About Costs?
Google Search Console MCP tools are included with your MCPBundles subscription. No per-request charges, no usage limits.
Google Search Console itself is free. You're not paying Google anything extra.
API rate limits apply based on Google's quotas. You get 60 API calls per minute and 2000 URL inspections per day. The AI handles rate limiting automatically—if you hit a limit, it'll tell you and retry when appropriate. For batch operations, it spaces out requests to stay within limits.
Your Data Stays Secure
Your Google OAuth credentials stay encrypted in our database. We never log access tokens or share them with anyone.
Every request uses your specific credentials. You can only access data from your own Search Console properties. No cross-account access, no shared data.
OAuth scopes are limited to Search Console read-only or full access, depending on what you authorize. We don't request unnecessary permissions.
You can revoke access anytime by removing the bundle from your MCPBundles account or revoking access in your Google account settings.
Limitations to Know About
Data delay: Search Console data is 2-3 days behind. The API enforces this—you can't get yesterday's data. The AI automatically adjusts date ranges to account for this delay.
URL inspection quota: You get 2000 URL inspections per day. For large audits, the AI uses smart sampling to check representative URLs without hitting the limit.
Date range limits: You can pull up to 16 months of historical data. Beyond that, you'll need to use Search Console's interface directly.
Property types: Works with both URL prefix properties (https://example.com/) and domain properties (sc-domain:example.com). The AI handles both formats.
No real-time data: All Search Console data has a processing delay. You won't see today's traffic until 2-3 days from now.
Dimension combinations: Some analytics queries can combine up to 3 dimensions (like query + page + country). The AI handles valid combinations automatically.
What We Learned Building This
Search Console's API has quirks. The 3-day data delay catches people off guard—you can't query recent dates. Date ranges need specific formatting. URL inspection is powerful but rate-limited, so we built smart sampling tools that check representative URLs.
Analytics queries need careful dimension combinations. You can't just combine any dimensions—some work together, some don't. We built tools that handle valid combinations automatically.
We tested every tool against real Search Console properties. Fixed date range issues, figured out valid dimension combinations, handled edge cases like empty results and rate limits. Took some trial and error.
Now it just works. You ask for something and the AI handles the technical details. Simple as that.
