AskWatch Google Search Console MCP Server認証済み注目

What is AskWatch GSC MCP

A hosted MCP server that gives Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code and any other MCP client read access to your Google Search Console data.

You connect your Google account once and get a personal link. There is no Google Cloud project to create, no OAuth client to configure, no credentials.json on disk and nothing running on your machine.

It is free, and the grant is read-only: it asks for webmasters.readonly, which cannot submit a sitemap, request indexing, remove a URL or change a property.

Setup

1. Connect your Google account at askwatch.ai/free-tools/google-search-console-mcp.
2. Copy your personal link.
3. Add it to your client.

Claude Code:

claude mcp add --transport http askwatch-gsc https://mcp.askwatch.ai/gsc/YOUR_KEY

Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Codex and Gemini CLI take the same address in their own config file. The exact shape for each of the nine supported clients is on the tool page.

The key also works as a header, for clients that prefer one:

Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY

Tools

Seven tools answer a whole question, one passes anything through, three describe the account.

Tool	What it answers
site_overview	Clicks, impressions, CTR and average position for a period, each against the period before it
top	Top queries, pages, countries or devices, optionally narrowed to one country or device
changes	What gained and what lost between two periods, with small rows filtered out
find_opportunities	Queries ranking 5 to 20 with a click-through rate below what is normal at that position
find_cannibalization	Queries where more than one of your pages is being shown
page_queries	What searches a specific page is shown for
brand_split	Branded against non-branded search, split on terms you supply
query	Direct Search Analytics query, for anything the shaped tools do not cover
list_sites	Search Console properties this connection can read
inspect_url	Index status of one URL, including the canonical Google picked
list_sitemaps	Sitemaps submitted for the property and their status

Every tool is annotated readOnlyHint, so a client can tell reads from writes without asking you to confirm each call.

Why the tools are shaped

A server can pass the Search Console API through and let the model write the query, or it can carry tools that each answer a whole question. We do the second.

"What dropped" has a right method: compare two windows of equal length, drop rows with too few impressions to mean anything, sort by absolute loss rather than percentage so a query going from 2 clicks to 1 does not top the list. A model assembling that from raw rows picks a method each time, and the methods differ. The raw query tool is still there for the questions nobody anticipated. It is the fallback, not the interface.

Answers come back in one envelope: the period used, the date the data runs through, the criteria applied, and notes.

Finalized data, not fresh

Search Console data settles over about two days, and the API can return either finalized rows or everything it has so far. We ask for finalized.

This is not a detail. On a live site, including the incomplete day reported clicks down 11.7 percent when the actual fall was 1.1 percent. The reader here is a model that will pass the number on as a fact and build advice on top of it, so the default matters more than it would in a dashboard.

Limits

Limits are here to stop a looping agent from spending your Google quota, not to ration a free tool.

• 20 calls a minute is the only refusal.
• Daily thresholds add a notice and then a small delay. Nothing is cut off.
• URL Inspection has its own smaller budget, because Google meters that endpoint an order of magnitude tighter than the rest.
• Answers are cached from 30 minutes to 30 days depending on how old the data is, so the same question asked twice does not cost your quota twice.

Access and privacy

• The grant asks for webmasters.readonly and nothing else.
• Google tokens are encrypted before they are stored. The link is stored as a hash, so a dump of the table is not a set of working addresses.
• Regenerate the link and the old address stops answering immediately. Withdraw the grant in your Google account and the whole connection ends.
• What we keep: the properties your account can read, the cached answers, and a count of calls per tool per day.
• AskWatch's use of information received from Google APIs follows the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. We do not sell this data and we do not train models on it.

Who makes it

AskWatch monitors brand visibility in AI search: whether ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Overviews name your brand when buyers ask, and which sources they cite. Search Console tells you what Google search did. It says nothing about what the answer engines say, which is the gap AskWatch measures.

The Search Console MCP server is free and stays free.
