Configuration

Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.

mcp.json · Universal config
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "webmoleai-mcp-link-doctor": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-link-doctor"
      ]
    }
  }
}
Run commandnpx -y mcp-link-doctor

Local servers need a runtime on your machine (e.g. Node.js 18+). Config file locations differ by client; see your client’s docs.

Details

From the project README

mcp-link-doctor

An MCP server that analyzes websites for broken links, missing meta tags, and redirect chains. Returns a structured report with a health score and fix suggestions.

What it does

  • Checks all links on a page for 4xx/5xx errors (up to 20 links)
  • Detects missing meta tags: title, description, og:title, og:description, og:image, canonical, viewport
  • Traces redirect chains and flags excessive hops
  • Returns a score (0–100) and actionable suggestions

Install

npx mcp-link-doctor

Configure in Claude Code

Add to your .claude/settings.json (or ~/.claude/settings.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-link-doctor": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["mcp-link-doctor"],
      "env": {
        "MCPCAT_PROJECT_ID": "proj_your_id_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Or if running locally from the built output:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-link-doctor": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/path/to/mcp-link-doctor/dist/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "MCPCAT_PROJECT_ID": "proj_your_id_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

MCPCAT_PROJECT_ID is optional. Get your project ID from mcpcat.io. The server runs fine without it — analytics are simply disabled.

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.
