About MCP

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard developed by Anthropic that enables AI assistants to securely connect to external data sources and tools. This server implements MCP to provide Claude and other compatible AI assistants with access to Serpstat's powerful SEO analytics API.

Description

This project implements a TypeScript server that provides an API interface for working with Serpstat tools via the MCP protocol. The server supports request handling, parameter validation, logging, and working with multiple SEO analysis tools.

Features

🔍 Comprehensive SEO Analysis: Access domain info, keyword research, competitor analysis, and backlink data
✅ Input Validation: Robust parameter validation using Zod schemas
📊 Event Logging: Detailed logging with Winston for debugging and monitoring
⚙️ Flexible Configuration: Environment-based configuration with sensible defaults
🧪 Well Tested: Jest tests for parameter validation and business logic
🚀 TypeScript: Full type safety throughout the codebase

Prerequisites

Node.js 18.0.0 or higher (Download Node.js)
Valid Serpstat API token (get one from Serpstat)
Compatible AI Assistant: Claude Desktop, Gemini CLI, or any MCP-compatible client

Installation

Global Installation (Recommended)

npm install -g @serpstat/serpstat-mcp-server

Local Installation

npm install @serpstat/serpstat-mcp-server

Configuration

Environment Variables

Set the following environment variables (can be in .env file):

SERPSTAT_API_TOKEN — Your Serpstat API token (required)
SERPSTAT_API_URL — Serpstat API URL (default: https://api.serpstat.com/v4)
LOG_LEVEL — Logging level: error, warn, info, debug (default: info)
SERPSTAT_ENABLED_CATEGORIES — Filter tools by categories (optional, comma-separated, default: all categories enabled)

Claude Desktop & Gemini CLI Configuration

Add to your Claude Desktop config file:

macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json Windows: %APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json Linux: ~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

Add to your Gemini CLI config:

Linux: ~/.gemini/settings.json

{
   "mcpServers": {
      "serpstat": {
         "command": "npx",
         "args": ["-y", "@serpstat/serpstat-mcp-server"],
         "env": {
            "SERPSTAT_API_TOKEN": "YOUR_SERPSTAT_API_TOKEN_HERE",
            "LANG": "en_US.UTF-8",
            "LC_ALL": "en_US.UTF-8"
         }
      }
   }
}

For local development, use the full path:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "serpstat": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/path/to/node_modules/serpstat-mcp-server/dist/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "SERPSTAT_API_TOKEN": "YOUR_SERPSTAT_API_TOKEN_HERE"
      }
    }
  }
}

Filtering Tools by Category

You can limit which tools are available by specifying SERPSTAT_ENABLED_CATEGORIES environment variable. This is useful for:

Reducing context window usage in AI assistants
Focusing on specific SEO analysis areas
Creating specialized configurations for different use cases

Available categories:

domain - Domain analysis tools (domain info, competitors, domain keywords, etc.)
keywords - Keyword research tools (keyword suggestions, search volume, difficulty, etc.)
backlinks - Backlink analysis tools (backlink summary, anchors, referring domains, etc.)
url - URL analysis tools (URL traffic, competitors, keywords, etc.)
projects - Project management tools (create, list, delete projects)
credits - Credits and usage monitoring tools
rt - Rank tracking tools (rank history, SERP tracking, etc.)
audit - Site audit tools (full site SEO audit, error reports, etc.)
page-audit - One-page audit tools (single page analysis, on-page SEO, etc.)

Example: Enable only keyword and domain tools

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "serpstat": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@serpstat/serpstat-mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "SERPSTAT_API_TOKEN": "YOUR_SERPSTAT_API_TOKEN_HERE",
        "SERPSTAT_ENABLED_CATEGORIES": "keywords,domain"
      }
    }
  }
}

Example: Enable only backlink analysis

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "serpstat": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@serpstat/serpstat-mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "SERPSTAT_API_TOKEN": "YOUR_SERPSTAT_API_TOKEN_HERE",
        "SERPSTAT_ENABLED_CATEGORIES": "backlinks"
      }
    }
  }
}

Default behavior (all tools enabled):

If SERPSTAT_ENABLED_CATEGORIES is not specified or is empty, all tools are available (65 total tools across all categories).
