Tools & capabilities
Aeo MCP tools 5
audit_urlRun a full AI-readiness (AEO) audit of a website: 29 checks across AI crawler access, structured data, content extractability, and answerability, returning a 0-100 score with prioritized fixes. Use when asked how visible a site is to ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, or Claude, or for an overall AEO/AI-SEO health check.check_ai_crawlersCheck whether AI crawlers like GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended, CCBot, and Bingbot are allowed to read a website, based on its robots.txt. Use when asked about AI visibility, AEO, crawler permissions, or why a site does not appear in ChatGPT or Perplexity.inspect_llms_txtFetch and validate a website's llms.txt file (the Markdown file that tells AI engines what the site is about and which pages matter). Returns its title, summary, sections, links, and any structural issues. Use when asked whether a site has llms.txt or how to improve it.extract_structured_dataExtract and summarize a page's JSON-LD structured data (schema.org): which types exist (Product, Article, FAQPage, Organization), their key fields, and any parse errors. Use when asked whether a page has the schema markup AI answer engines rely on for citations.extract_page_signalsExtract the on-page signals AI engines parse: title, meta description, h1, canonical, lang, text-to-HTML ratio, heading outline, and whether the page looks client-side rendered (invisible to most AI crawlers). Use to diagnose why engines misread or skip a page.
