Tools & capabilities

PageSpeed Insights MCP tools 8

  • reportEverything in one call, and the one most people want. Scores with their spread, real-user data if Google has any, and what is failing ranked by what fixing it is worth. Returns a self-contained HTML page as well, to save or forward. Comes back as a job id.
  • check_pagespeedScores only. Median of N distinct analyses with the spread. `urls`, `strategy` (mobile, desktop or both), `runs` (1-10, default 5). Anything past a single analysis comes back as a job id.
  • diagnose_pageWhat is failing, ranked. Only reports a fault that failed in every analysis, because audits are as noisy as scores. Comes back as a job id.
  • field_dataReal-user data from the Chrome UX Report. `urls`, and `history` for the weekly p75 series.
  • explain_lcpWhich of four phases owns a slow Largest Contentful Paint: server response, the wait before the browser starts fetching the largest image, the download, then the wait before it is painted. One call, answers at once.
  • compareDid the change actually help. Measures now and compares against a saved baseline, giving a verdict only where the two ranges do not overlap. Comes back as a job id.
  • check_statusCollects a measurement that was handed back as a job id. Answers immediately, every time. `job_id`, or nothing at all for the most recent one.
  • diagnoseWhether the key works, whether the Chrome UX Report is reachable, and which baselines are held, without disclosing the key.
