@lightspot/mcp
MCP server for LightSpot.ai — run SEO and AI-visibility audits, read their results and our experts' reports, and import editorial calendars from any MCP client (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, …).
It wraps the LightSpot public API (/v1) as MCP tools, so an AI assistant can "audit this site and tell me why ChatGPT doesn't cite it" in one step.
Requirements
- A LightSpot API key (
lspai_live_…) — create one in LightSpot → Integrations → API keys. API access is included in the Eclat and Zenith plans. - Node.js ≥ 18 (run on demand via
npx, nothing to install globally).
Setup
Add the server to your MCP client config and set your API key:
{
"mcpServers": {
"lightspot": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@lightspot/mcp"],
"env": {
"LIGHTSPOT_API_KEY": "lspai_live_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
}
}
}
}

Environment variables
Claude plugin
The plugin/ folder packages this server as a Claude plugin: it pins @lightspot/mcp, asks for your API key once and stores it in your system's secure credential store, and adds an ai-visibility-audit skill. See plugin/README.md.
Tools
Example prompts
- "Audit https://example.com and give me the top 3 things to fix for AI visibility."
- "List my LightSpot sites and which one has the lowest score."
- "Get the full results for audit
<id>and group the issues by severity." - "What competitors were detected for my site
<siteId>, and what should I do about them?" - "Read the experts' report for my site
<siteId>and fix what the structured-data expert recommends in my codebase." - "Create a four-week editorial calendar for my site
<siteId>with two LinkedIn posts and one educational Reddit post per week, then import it into LightSpot." - "Show me everything planned or published for site
<siteId>between 2026-08-01T00:00:00+02:00 and 2026-09-01T00:00:00+02:00."
Notes
- Quotas (audits/month, pages/audit) and per-key rate limits follow your LightSpot plan.
- Importing editorial slots does not consume AI credits and never generates, schedules, or publishes content automatically.
- The full REST API reference lives at lightspot.ai/docs/api.
