https://gscpap.com Guides for using Google Search Console data in Claude, Cursor and other AI assistants. en Tue, 27 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/faq/what-data-does-gsc-pap-access https://gscpap.com/faq/what-data-does-gsc-pap-access GSC PAP reads your verified sites, search analytics, sitemap status and URL inspection results through a read-only scope. It cannot change anything. FAQ Tue, 27 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/faq/can-other-users-see-my-data https://gscpap.com/faq/can-other-users-see-my-data No. Your data, tokens and archive are isolated to your account. The only exception is operator access for support or debugging, which is audit-logged. FAQ Tue, 27 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#archive-final-day-frontier https://gscpap.com/changelog#archive-final-day-frontier The archive used to wait four days before saving a day, although Search Console usually finalises its data after two. It now asks Google which days are final and saves each one within an hour, so questions about last week are answered from your archive sooner. Changelog Tue, 27 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#ga4-date-windows https://gscpap.com/changelog#ga4-date-windows ga4_compare_periods with days=1 now compares today with yesterday. Before, every "last N days" Analytics window was one day longer than asked and the two compared windows shared a day, so a day-over-day question got a muddled answer. Windows are now exactly N days in your property's time zone. Changelog Tue, 27 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#search-console-scope-missing https://gscpap.com/changelog#search-console-scope-missing If you left the Search Console box unticked on Google's consent screen, every Search Console tool passed on Google's bare "invalid_scope" error. Your assistant now hears that the permission is missing and gets a link to the page that shows how to grant it, and the Analytics tools keep working in the meantime. Changelog Tue, 27 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#oauth-back-replay https://gscpap.com/changelog#oauth-back-replay Going Back after signing in replays Google's consent page, which used to end on "Sign-in session expired" although you were signed in. You now land on your account instead. When a sign-in link really has expired, the page says why: it was reused after Back, or it is over ten minutes old. Changelog Tue, 27 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/guides/correlate-organic-clicks-to-ga4-conversions https://gscpap.com/guides/correlate-organic-clicks-to-ga4-conversions A Search Console click and a GA4 session measure different things. Why the numbers never match, what gap is normal, and how to compare and combine them page by page. Guide Sun, 25 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/guides/ai-queries-in-google-search-console https://gscpap.com/guides/ai-queries-in-google-search-console Search Console mixes AI Mode follow-ups, AI agent searches and scripts into your query report. How to spot each one, with regex filters and real data. Guide Sun, 25 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#guide-screens https://gscpap.com/changelog#guide-screens Each guide now has a screen from Search Console, GA4 or PageSpeed Insights at the step it explains, with numbered marks the caption walks through. The screens are recreated with example data for a made-up site, so they show where to click without showing anyone's account. Changelog Sun, 25 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#guide-figures https://gscpap.com/changelog#guide-figures Each workflow guide now draws its main point: where a click can fail to become a session, where a URL can stop on its way into Google's index, the Core Web Vitals thresholds, or what the assistant's answer looks like for a made-up site. The figures are built from text, so they follow dark mode and come through in the Markdown version of each page. Changelog Sun, 25 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#ai-queries-guide https://gscpap.com/changelog#ai-queries-guide Search Console mixes AI Mode follow-ups, searches that AI agents run for their users and scripted queries into the same report, with nothing marking which is which. The new guide shows what each group looked like on our own site, gives a tested regex filter for each, and measures what they do to CTR and average position, along with how many visits AI assistants send according to GA4. Changelog Sun, 25 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#ga4-top-pages-description https://gscpap.com/changelog#ga4-top-pages-description The tool groups sessions by page path, so a session counts on every page it views, but its description said landing pages. An assistant taking that at face value could add the rows up as total sessions, which on our own property overstates them 2.19 times. The description now says what the rows count, and points to ga4_overview for totals and correlate_gsc_to_ga4 for landing sessions. Changelog Sun, 25 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#guide-client-switch https://gscpap.com/changelog#guide-client-switch The worked example in each guide was written for Claude, though the prompts run in any MCP client. A switch above it now rewrites the example for ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI or Copilot and links that client's setup guide. The choice is remembered in your browser. Changelog Sun, 25 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#clicks-vs-sessions-combine https://gscpap.com/changelog#clicks-vs-sessions-combine It compares the four ways to combine Search Console and GA4 data (GA4's Search Console link, Looker Studio, BigQuery and an MCP server) by what each needs and where each stops, and shows on our own data why per-page rows never add up to the site total: GA4 sessions by page path came to 2.19 times the real figure, by landing page exactly 1. Changelog Sun, 25 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/faq/token-usage-vs-search-console-api https://gscpap.com/faq/token-usage-vs-search-console-api Yes, about a third fewer tokens, measured on 1,000 real rows across three properties. The method and the numbers are both published here. FAQ Thu, 22 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#ga4-key-events-by-name https://gscpap.com/changelog#ga4-key-events-by-name A GA4 property marks whatever its owner likes as a key event, so one conversions total can be mostly things nobody would call a conversion: add to cart, login, even logout. ga4_conversions_by_source now returns that total broken out by event name, and reports transactions next to revenue, so a shop's actual purchase rate is visible instead of a session key-event rate that counts ten different things at once. The two can differ by a factor of ten on the same property in the same month. Responses also carry the property's currency and time zone, which Google sends on every report and which we had been discarding, so revenue is no longer a bare number and a date range names the zone it was cut in. Changelog Thu, 22 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#compare-periods-toon https://gscpap.com/changelog#compare-periods-toon compare_periods now returns TOON instead of a markdown table, 20% fewer tokens on the same rows. The format is per tool and search_analytics_query stays on markdown, so the two can be compared on live calls rather than on a fixture. Worth saying what the number is not: the same payload shrinks 22% in bytes, and byte counts overstate the context win because JSON punctuation is nearly free to tokenise. Against the raw Search Console API response, TOON is 45% smaller in tokens on this tool and a third smaller on search_analytics_query. Changelog Thu, 22 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#find-new-pages-and-dead-pages https://gscpap.com/changelog#find-new-pages-and-dead-pages find_new_pages lists the pages Search Console started showing in the last week and whether each has earned a click, because 90% of the clicks a new page ever earns arrive in its first seven days: a page still silent after that rarely becomes anything. find_dead_pages is the other end, the pages appearing for months that have never earned a click, split by whether Google is showing them and nobody clicks or barely showing them at all. Those need opposite work, and only one of them is a title problem. Changelog Tue, 20 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/guides/low-ctr-at-good-position-serp-features https://gscpap.com/guides/low-ctr-at-good-position-serp-features Ranking third and getting no clicks usually means something sits above you: an AI Overview, a featured snippet or a map pack. How to check which, query by query. Guide Mon, 19 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/guides/find-pages-losing-organic-traffic https://gscpap.com/guides/find-pages-losing-organic-traffic Content decay is slow enough to miss on a dashboard. How to find the pages whose clicks keep sliding, tell decay from seasonality, and decide what to refresh. Guide Mon, 19 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/guides/compare-search-console-date-ranges https://gscpap.com/guides/compare-search-console-date-ranges Clicks are down 18% and nobody knows why. How to compare two periods properly, avoid the three traps that fake a drop, and find the queries and pages behind it. Guide Mon, 19 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/integrations/opencode https://gscpap.com/integrations/opencode Add Google Search Console to opencode as a remote MCP server. One config block with your token, no Google Cloud project, no local server to run. Integration Mon, 19 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/integrations/cline https://gscpap.com/integrations/cline Add Google Search Console to Cline in VS Code or the Cline CLI as a remote MCP server. One token, no Google Cloud project, read-only access. Integration Mon, 19 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/integrations/warp https://gscpap.com/integrations/warp Add Google Search Console to Warp's agent as a remote MCP server. Paste one JSON block with your token, press Start, and ask about your traffic in the terminal. Integration Mon, 19 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/integrations/lm-studio https://gscpap.com/integrations/lm-studio Give a local model your Search Console data. Add GSC PAP to LM Studio's mcp.json as a remote server, with one token and no Google Cloud project. Integration Mon, 19 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/integrations/chatgpt https://gscpap.com/integrations/chatgpt Add Google Search Console to ChatGPT as a custom MCP server. What the setup looks like, and the plan requirement that decides whether you can do it at all. Integration Mon, 19 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/integrations/goose https://gscpap.com/integrations/goose Add Google Search Console to Goose as a streamable_http extension. One block in config.yaml with your token, no Google Cloud project, read-only access. Integration Mon, 19 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/integrations/antigravity https://gscpap.com/integrations/antigravity Add Search Console to Google Antigravity as a custom MCP server. It handles dynamic client registration, so the setup is a URL and a sign-in, with no token. Integration Mon, 19 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/integrations/roo-code https://gscpap.com/integrations/roo-code Add Google Search Console to Roo Code in VS Code as a streamable-http MCP server. One block with your token, no Google Cloud project, read-only. Integration Mon, 19 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/integrations/kilo-code https://gscpap.com/integrations/kilo-code Add Google Search Console to Kilo Code as a remote MCP server. It can negotiate OAuth for you, or take a bearer token. No Google Cloud project either way. Integration Mon, 19 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/integrations/amp https://gscpap.com/integrations/amp Add Google Search Console to Amp as a remote MCP server, in settings or with one CLI command. No Google Cloud project, read-only scopes. Integration Mon, 19 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/integrations/kiro https://gscpap.com/integrations/kiro Add Google Search Console to Kiro as a remote MCP server. One entry in mcp.json, the token read from an approved environment variable, read-only access. Integration Mon, 19 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/integrations/raycast https://gscpap.com/integrations/raycast Add Google Search Console to Raycast AI as an HTTP MCP server. Dynamic OAuth means no token to paste, and HTTP servers work on Raycast for iOS too. Integration Mon, 19 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/integrations/copilot-cli https://gscpap.com/integrations/copilot-cli Add Google Search Console to GitHub Copilot CLI with one command or one JSON entry. Remote HTTP transport, your token in a header, read-only access. Integration Mon, 19 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/integrations/n8n https://gscpap.com/integrations/n8n Give an n8n AI Agent your Search Console data through the MCP Client Tool node, and schedule the SEO report you keep meaning to write. Integration Mon, 19 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/integrations/librechat https://gscpap.com/integrations/librechat Add GSC PAP to librechat.yaml as a streamable-http MCP server, and give every user on your install their own Search Console access rather than a shared one. Integration Mon, 19 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#index-coverage-summary-concurrent https://gscpap.com/changelog#index-coverage-summary-concurrent get_index_coverage_summary inspected its sample one page at a time, so it cost the sum of ten URL inspections. The inspections now run together and the tool costs about as much as its slowest single page. Measured on the same property with the same ten URLs: 69 seconds before, 7 after. Changelog Mon, 19 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#markdown-twin-of-every-page https://gscpap.com/changelog#markdown-twin-of-every-page Add .md to any page's path and you get that page as clean Markdown, with a canonical link back to the HTML. It is there for assistants that would rather read a page than parse one, and for anyone who wants to paste a guide into a prompt without the navigation coming along. Changelog Mon, 19 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#fourteen-more-client-guides https://gscpap.com/changelog#fourteen-more-client-guides opencode, Cline, Roo Code, Kilo Code, Warp, LM Studio, ChatGPT, Goose, Antigravity, Amp, Kiro, Raycast, GitHub Copilot CLI and n8n. Each configuration comes from that client's own documentation rather than from the shape the others use, because the key names genuinely differ. Twenty-six clients in total. Changelog Mon, 19 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#librechat-integration https://gscpap.com/changelog#librechat-integration LibreChat is the first client on the list that is usually not one person's: a self-hosted install serves a team, and Search Console access is per person. The guide therefore leads with the configuration that asks each user for their own token, so one server entry gives a team separate views of their own properties rather than a shared one. Changelog Mon, 19 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#pricing-page https://gscpap.com/changelog#pricing-page The answer used to live in a comparison card and an FAQ answer, which was enough for summaries of the site to say to go and check the pricing page. There is one now, and it says $0 in the heading, in the table and in the page's structured data. Changelog Mon, 19 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#mcp-server-comparison-page https://gscpap.com/changelog#mcp-server-comparison-page The hosted and self-hosted options side by side, each claim dated and linked to its source. It includes the cases where something else is the better fit, because a comparison that never says that is not a comparison. Changelog Mon, 19 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#oauth-offline-access-advertised https://gscpap.com/changelog#oauth-offline-access-advertised Our OAuth metadata did not list offline_access, which ChatGPT reads before it treats a connection as refreshable. It is listed now. Note that custom MCP connectors in ChatGPT remain a Business, Enterprise and Edu feature, which is OpenAI's rule rather than ours. Changelog Mon, 19 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#handshake-reports-our-version https://gscpap.com/changelog#handshake-reports-our-version On connecting, we were sending the version of the framework underneath us instead of ours, so clients logged and displayed the wrong number. The handshake now says 0.3.0. Changelog Mon, 19 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#turnstile-retry-allowed https://gscpap.com/changelog#turnstile-retry-allowed Cloudflare's widget retries a failed check on its own, and our error handling was reporting the failure before that retry could run. A recoverable hiccup could therefore end as a blocked sign-in. The retry runs now, and only a second failure is reported. Changelog Mon, 19 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#legal-dates-pinned-to-utc https://gscpap.com/changelog#legal-dates-pinned-to-utc The effective date on the Privacy Policy and Terms was formatted in whatever timezone built the site, so it could render a day early. It is pinned to UTC and marked up as a machine-readable date. Changelog Mon, 19 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#independent-google-calls-in-parallel https://gscpap.com/changelog#independent-google-calls-in-parallel Tools that make several independent Google calls now make them at the same time instead of one after another. batch_inspect_urls with ten URLs went from about 50 seconds to 7, and the Search Console to GA4 correlation stopped running its two halves back to back. Changelog Sun, 18 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#postgres-sized-for-the-archive https://gscpap.com/changelog#postgres-sized-for-the-archive Postgres was still on the settings it ships with, against an archive that had long outgrown them. Queries over your archived history return quicker as a result, and the slow ones now record themselves so the next complaint starts from evidence. Changelog Sun, 18 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#lost-google-site-access-recorded https://gscpap.com/changelog#lost-google-site-access-recorded If a property's access disappears on Google's side, through a permission change in Search Console, that is recorded and shown. Before, it looked indistinguishable from a property with no data. Changelog Sat, 19 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/guides/find-seo-quick-wins https://gscpap.com/guides/find-seo-quick-wins Striking distance keywords rank just off page one of Google. Find them in Search Console, pick the ones worth fixing, and learn what to change on the page.

Here is what it includes and how to keep it longer, from BigQuery to an archive. Guide Fri, 18 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/guides/weekly-seo-health-report-via-claude https://gscpap.com/guides/weekly-seo-health-report-via-claude Automate a weekly SEO report with Claude: one saved prompt pulls Search Console changes, quick wins, decaying pages, GA4 conversions and Core Web Vitals.

The URL Inspection API allows 2,000 checks a day per property. How to inspect in bulk and find indexing issues.

GSC PAP copies them automatically when you sign in, then saves each new day, so your history keeps growing past Google's limit. FAQ Fri, 18 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#archive-totals-include-anonymized https://gscpap.com/changelog#archive-totals-include-anonymized Search Console withholds the query text for rare searches, and we were summing the rows we could see. Archived totals therefore came in under the real number. Totals now come from Search Console's own daily figures, which include the traffic whose queries it will not name. Changelog Fri, 18 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#performance-overview-site-total https://gscpap.com/changelog#performance-overview-site-total Under some date ranges get_performance_overview returned a single query's clicks and impressions as the site total, which is the kind of wrong number that looks plausible for weeks. It reports the site total. Changelog Fri, 18 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#weekly-digest-full-weeks https://gscpap.com/changelog#weekly-digest-full-weeks It was putting four days up against seven, so the comparison read as a collapse every time regardless of what the site did. Changelog Fri, 18 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#oauth-connector-discovery https://gscpap.com/changelog#oauth-connector-discovery The MCP endpoint advertises itself to OAuth clients and accepts clients that register themselves, so Claude.ai and other connector clients can connect with a Google sign-in. No token to copy and no configuration file to edit. Changelog Fri, 18 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#claude-desktop-config-accepted https://gscpap.com/changelog#claude-desktop-config-accepted Onboarding offered a configuration file that Claude Desktop rejected when it loaded it, which made the first run fail for the client most people start with. Changelog Fri, 18 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#catalog-lists-all-34-tools https://gscpap.com/changelog#catalog-lists-all-34-tools The catalog said 30 tools while the server answered 34. The four it had missed are listed and documented, so what the site promises and what the server does are the same set. Changelog Fri, 18 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#archive-backfill-on-connect https://gscpap.com/changelog#archive-backfill-on-connect Backfill used to wait for the next scheduled run, and the schedule could skip an account without saying anything. It now starts from the sign-in itself, so the sixteen months Google still holds are copied while you are setting up your client. Changelog Thu, 03 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://gscpap.com/changelog#reconnect-email-on-auth-failure https://gscpap.com/changelog#reconnect-email-on-auth-failure A Google grant can break without anyone touching GSC PAP, through a password change or a revoked permission. That now sends you a message asking you to reconnect, instead of turning into answers that are empty for no stated reason. Changelog Thu, 03 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMT
