Seo Monster tools 70
system_statusReport which SEO services are configured and reachable, the Google auth method and scopes, whether destructive mode is enabled, and the full catalog of available tools grouped by service. Call this first if unsure what is set up. Pass probe=true to confirm credentials work via one cheap live call per configured service (default false: config-only).gsc_list_propertiesList every Search Console property the configured credentials can see, with each property's permission level. Use this to discover valid site_url values.gsc_search_analyticsQuery Search Console search analytics (clicks, impressions, CTR, position) for a property, with dimensions, a date range, optional dimension filters, and data_state. The workhorse GSC tool.gsc_top_queriesConvenience wrapper: top queries for a property over the last N days by clicks. Equivalent to gsc_search_analytics with dimensions=["query"]. Uses the configured data_state (default 'all'; 'final' lags 2-3 days behind the dashboard).gsc_top_pagesConvenience wrapper: top pages for a property over the last N days by clicks. Equivalent to gsc_search_analytics with dimensions=["page"]. Uses the configured data_state (default 'all'; 'final' lags 2-3 days behind the dashboard).gsc_compare_periodsCompare two equal-length time windows (current vs prior) and return per-key deltas in clicks, impressions, CTR, and position, plus keys present in only one window. v0.2.0: optional sort_by / sort_dir / min_delta_* filters and an anomalies_only z-score gate so the same tool covers 'biggest gainers', 'biggest losers', 'meaningful movers', and 'statistical outliers' without needing separate tools. When anomalies_only=true, the response's filters_applied.sigma_used field reports the population-stdev (sigma) actually computed from the matched rows' sort_by metric distribution; the effective z-score cutoff applied is `sigma_threshold * sigma_used`.gsc_inspect_urlInspect a single URL via the URL Inspection API: index verdict, coverage state, crawl info, canonicals, and mobile/rich-results summaries when present.gsc_batch_inspect_urlsInspect several URLs in one call (capped at 25). Returns a result per URL plus a list of per-URL failures. Rate-limit and transient errors are reported per URL without failing the whole batch.gsc_list_sitemapsList the sitemaps Google knows about for a property, with submission and indexing status.gsc_submit_sitemapSubmit a sitemap to Search Console. Requires the writable webmasters scope. Available by default (a routine SEO task; not gated). Accepts either `sitemap_url` (preferred, friendly name) or `feedpath` (the raw API field name; kept for back-compat).gsc_request_indexingAsk Google to (re)crawl one or more URLs via the Indexing API (URL_UPDATED). Requires the indexing scope. Available by default. Accepts a single `url` (string) or `urls` (array up to 100). A scope or disabled-API error stops the batch and is returned with remediation; per-URL errors are collected. `notify_time: null` on success is normal upstream behavior, not a failure.gsc_query_opportunitiesQueries already ranking in the top N positions but with below-target CTR. These are title and meta-description optimization candidates. Returns rows sorted by impressions desc (the bigger the impression volume, the more clicks a CTR lift unlocks).- +58 more on the listing page
