Setup
Do I need a Google Cloud project to use GSC PAP?
No. The whole reason GSC PAP exists is to remove the Google Cloud setup step. When you sign in with Google through gscpap.com, you grant permission to our OAuth client (which we registered with Google one time). We then call the Search Console API on your behalf using your refresh token. You never touch the Google Cloud Console.
If you were running an MCP server yourself, you would need to create a GCP project, enable the Search Console API, create OAuth 2.0 credentials, download a JSON file, distribute it across machines, manage refresh token rotation, and re-authenticate every time the token expires. That setup typically takes 30-45 minutes the first time and breaks in confusing ways when something rotates.
GSC PAP handles all of that for you. You sign in with Google, copy a single bearer token, paste it into Claude Desktop, Cursor, or Claude Code, and start asking questions. Total time from first visit to first query is around 60 seconds.

Which AI clients support GSC PAP?
GSC PAP is exposed as an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server. Any AI client that speaks MCP can connect. As of April 2026, the actively supported clients are Claude Desktop, Cursor, and Claude Code (the Anthropic CLI). All three implement the MCP HTTP transport that we use, so no extra adapter is required.
Setup
How do I add GSC PAP to Claude Desktop, Cursor, or Claude Code?
The flow is the same for all three clients: sign in with Google at gscpap.com, copy the bearer token shown on the connect screen, then paste a JSON config or run a single CLI command in your AI client. Total time about 60 seconds, all from the same web page.

Can other users see my data?
No. Your Search Console data, OAuth tokens, MCP sessions, archive, and tool call history are all isolated to your user account in our database. Every query passes through bearer-token authentication that resolves to a specific user, and every database query scopes results by user_id. There is no UI, API endpoint, or feature that exposes one user's data to another user.
