README
MCP server that wraps the SiteOne Crawler CLI for SEO auditing and site analysis. Use it with Claude Code, Claude Desktop, or any MCP-compatible client.
Install SiteOne Crawler
The auto-installer downloads the correct SiteOne Crawler binary for your platform:
npx -y siteone-mcp-server --install
This installs to ~/.siteone-crawler/ and the MCP server will auto-detect it — no further configuration needed.
Supports macOS (arm64, x64) and Linux (arm64, x64). Windows users should download manually.
Quick Start
Claude Code
claude mcp add siteone -- npx -y siteone-mcp-server

{
"mcpServers": {
"siteone": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "siteone-mcp-server"]
}
