MCP Overview
Query Citlyze workspace data from MCP-compatible clients and agents.
The Citlyze MCP server gives MCP-compatible clients and agents read-only access to your workspace data. Supported clients include Claude Code, Cursor, OpenAI Codex, OpenCode, Claude Desktop, VS Code, Windsurf, Cline, Roo Code, Continue, and custom agent runtimes that support remote Streamable HTTP MCP servers.
Endpoint
MCP clients connect to the Citlyze app host, not the docs host:
https://app.citlyze.com/api/mcpThe REST API index at GET /api/v1 reports the same endpoint path as
mcp_endpoint.
The server uses Streamable HTTP transport. SSE transport is not supported.
Authentication
Use the same API key as the REST API:
Authorization: Bearer aeo_live_...What MCP can do
MCP tools can summarize workspace setup, list prompts, inspect measurement windows, compare visibility, review citations, compare competitors, and retrieve recommendations.
The tools return JSON text that the MCP client can summarize, compare, or use as evidence in a report.
What MCP cannot do
The MCP server is read-only. It cannot run tracking, create prompts, edit recommendations, manage billing, or change workspace settings.
Ready-made agent skills
The citlyze-skills repository ships open-source skills that combine these tools into complete workflows: visibility reports, citation gap analysis, prompt audits, and action plans, plus a standalone AEO page audit. The skills follow the SKILL.md standard, so they work in Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, and other compatible agents:
npx skills add Citlyze/citlyze-skillsClient configuration bundles, including the Gemini CLI extension and the Claude Desktop extension, live in citlyze-mcp.
