SEO Crawler MCP - retired

This project has been superseded by SEO Audit Console.

SEO Crawler crawled your whole site into SQLite and gave Claude 25+ analysis queries over the result. The crawler survived the move - it was rewritten to be stdio-safe and it is now the crawl half of a bigger tool.

SEO Audit Console keeps the crawl and adds the thing the crawl could never tell you on its own: what people actually searched for to get there. It merges the crawl with your Google Search Console history and on-demand DataForSEO data, then ranks every finding by the clicks it could recover rather than by severity.

A flat crawler sells you severity. This ranks by yield.

Where to go

git clone https://github.com/houtini-ai/seo-audit.git

Docs and setup: github.com/houtini-ai/seo-audit

What this means for you

• The npm package still installs. @houtini/seo-crawler-mcp is deprecated, not unpublished. Nothing you have running will break.
• This repository is archived. The code stays readable and every existing link keeps working, but there are no further releases, and issues and pull requests are closed.
• The crawler got better on the way over. It no longer depends on Crawlee (which logged to stdout and corrupted MCP's JSON-RPC framing), it seeds discovery from sitemaps and known GSC URLs rather than links alone, and it guards against redirects that wander off-host.

Migrating

Start a crawl on the new tool and it builds its own database:

start_crawl for https://example.com/

Run refresh_property instead if you want the crawl, the Search Console sync and URL inspection in one pass.
