Tools
Details
From the project README@didyouseo/mcp
Connect DidYouSEO's SEO tools to any AI assistant that supports the Model Context Protocol (MCP).
DidYouSEO runs a remote MCP server at https://didyouseo.com/mcp. Clients
that support remote MCP servers (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor) can connect to that
URL directly and sign in with OAuth — no install needed. This package is a small
stdio bridge for clients that only support local MCP servers.
Tools
21 tools in five groups.

Every tool runs after you sign in with your DidYouSEO account (OAuth, on first use). A free account can use every tool: Search Console and GA4 results are a short preview on the free plan, and keyword and backlink lookups use the AI credits that paid plans include each month. See https://didyouseo.com/pricing.
Use a remote connector (recommended)
If your client supports remote MCP servers, just add the URL:
https://didyouseo.com/mcp
You'll be prompted to sign in with DidYouSEO the first time.
Use the stdio bridge
For clients that only support local (stdio) servers, add this to the client's MCP config:
{
"mcpServers": {
"didyouseo": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@didyouseo/mcp"]
}
}
}
A browser window opens for sign-in on first run.
Local development
Point the bridge at a local DidYouSEO instance:
DIDYOUSEO_MCP_URL=http://localhost:3000/mcp npx @didyouseo/mcp

New to MCP?
From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
