Overview

The cituna-mcp MCP server connects AI agents to Cituna’s daily brand-visibility tracking across seven AI engines and to Google Search Console data. It provides read tools for citation grids, answer receipts, audits, competitor discovery, SEO analysis, and AutoSEO content, along with write tools for prompts, gaps, outreach, scans, and articles. The hosted endpoint uses Streamable HTTP with browser-based OAuth, while the npm package runs over stdio with an API key. Reach for it when you need to investigate why AI systems cite competitors, connect those findings to organic search data, or manage the resulting content and SEO work from an MCP client.

How Cituna MCP works

What cituna-mcp does

Cituna exposes AI visibility and search-performance data to MCP-compatible agents. It tracks buyer prompts against ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, Grok, Google AI Overviews, and Google AI Mode each day. For each tracked brand, an agent can inspect whether an engine cited it, the citation position, the answer text, and the URLs used as sources.

The server also connects this visibility data with Google Search Console. This supports analyses such as queries near page one, pages receiving impressions without clicks, competing pages on the same query, uncovered sitemap sections, intent-based demand, and searches phrased like AI prompts. Cituna’s audit and content tools extend the workflow from diagnosis into prioritizing gaps, managing outreach, and preparing or refreshing articles.

How it works

A workspace contains tracked brands and domains, which provide the inputs for visibility, audit, and Search Console operations. whoami returns the signed-in account, workspace, plan, and usage meters; list_brands shows the available brands. gsc_status reports connected Google accounts and the Search Console properties they can read.

Daily tracking is available through get_visibility, which returns prompt-and-engine results, positions, engine modes, cell states, the visibility score, and the measurement date. get_engine_answers provides the underlying answer text, cited brands, source URLs, and the tracked brand’s position. Audits can be listed, retrieved in detail, or rerun with run_scan; a new scan consumes one monthly scan allowance.

The hosted service is available at https://mcp.cituna.com/mcp over Streamable HTTP. It authenticates through OAuth in a browser or an API key header. The npm package runs locally with npx -y cituna-mcp, uses stdio, and requires Node.js 20 or later.

Setup and configuration

Use a Cituna account on the Starter plan or higher and add at least one tracked brand in the Cituna app before reading workspace data. The free trial does not include MCP access.

For a hosted connection, add the MCP URL to a client that supports custom MCP connectors and complete the Cituna sign-in flow. For a local process, provide the CITUNA_API_KEY environment variable and launch the npm package with npx -y cituna-mcp.

The hosted and local modes expose the same tools. Hosted access is suitable for clients that support Streamable HTTP, including web-based connectors; local stdio is intended for desktop, terminal, scripts, and CI use.

Tools and capabilities

  • Inspect account, workspace, brand, plan, and usage details.
  • Read daily visibility grids and the answer receipts behind individual results.
  • Manage tracked prompts, including reversible disabling and prompt replacement.
  • Review audits, citation gaps, cited source hosts, competitors, and outreach status.
  • Run Google Search Console summaries and focused Search Analytics queries.
  • Find striking-distance queries, zero-click pages, query cannibalisation, coverage gaps, intent mix, and AI-like searches.
  • List keywords, AutoSEO queue items, and generated articles; queue, edit, publish-mark, or enrich content.
  • Update gap statuses and trigger a fresh audit scan.

Access depends on the Cituna plan. Read tools are available from Starter, while write tools and list_keywords require Pro or Max. Some operations consume monthly allowances, including scans and article enrichment.

Limitations and notes

Google Search Console access is read-only. Its AI-oriented query report is an estimate based on prompt-like searches because Search Console does not provide filters for AI Overviews or AI Mode. Audit scores should be compared within the same scoring_epoch; across epochs, citation counts are the comparable measure.

An unavailable visibility cell means an engine returned no answer for that run. In audit matrices, not_run is distinct from not_cited. Article enrichment applies only when an article is marked eligible and uses Search Console queries from that article’s site. Cituna itself is a paid service, while the MCP server is MIT-licensed.
