The best SEO MCP server for VS Code

VS Code's agent mode can already edit your site. Give it live keyword, SERP, backlink and audit data and it can decide what to change, not just how to change it.

Live now: the MCP server, the free AI visibility audit and the keyword tools. VS Code uses servers as the top-level config key, not mcpServers like every other client, and the tools only appear once Copilot Chat is in Agent mode.

Setup

      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer sk_your_secret_key"

MCP requires GitHub Copilot Chat in Agent mode. VS Code uses servers, not mcpServers, as the top-level key.

What you get

Connecting omnifamous to VS Code

Every surface of the engine, as tools your agent can call mid-conversation.

MCP server

Live now

One `code --add-mcp` command, or a .vscode/mcp.json file. VS Code gets the full tool catalog: keywords, SERP, backlinks, audits, AI visibility, drafting and publishing.

AI visibility tools

Live now

Run any prompt against ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot, Grok or Google AI Overviews and get the answer, the citations and the query fan-out back.

Free audit and keyword tools

Live now

Anonymous AI visibility audit and keyword research at /tools/seo-audit, no login required.

Public API

Live now

Every tool the MCP server exposes is also a plain HTTP endpoint, so you can script it without an MCP client.

What we do for you

We do the SEO work, not hand you another dashboard

Whichever way you connect, the omnifamous engine does the heavy lifting for your brand.

Audits your AI visibility so you can see which prompts name your brand and which name a competitor.

Researches winnable keywords for your market with real search data behind every pick.

Drafts ranking-ready articles mapped to those keywords, structured to be quoted by AI assistants.

Re-scans your visibility over time so you can prove the trend as content ships.

How it works

From VS Code to ranking content

Four steps. You stay the editor, the engine handles the rest.

Add the server to VS Code. One `code --add-mcp` command, or a .vscode/mcp.json file.

Ask in plain language. The agent picks the tools, so you never call one by hand.

Review the research. Every number comes from a live data provider, not from the model.

Approve the drafts. You stay the editor while the engine handles research and writing.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Everything you need to know about how the engine does the work for you.

Yes. One `code --add-mcp` command, or a .vscode/mcp.json file. Once it is connected, VS Code can research keywords, pull live SERPs, check backlinks, run technical audits, ask ChatGPT and Gemini what they say about your brand, and draft articles against what actually ranks.

VS Code uses servers as the top-level config key, not mcpServers like every other client, and the tools only appear once Copilot Chat is in Agent mode. The exact config block for VS Code is on this page, ready to copy.

Two usual causes. MCP needs GitHub Copilot Chat running in Agent mode, not Ask mode. And VS Code's config uses servers as the top-level key, so a block copied from a Cursor or Claude guide with mcpServers will parse and then do nothing.

A .vscode/mcp.json committed to the repo shares the setup with your team. The user-level config follows you across every workspace.

Because it will make the numbers up. Language models routinely invent search volumes, difficulty scores and competitor rankings that look plausible and are wrong. Every number our tools return comes from a live data provider or your own workspace.

Reads of your own workspace are free and unmetered: your articles, your calendar, your keyword pool, your visibility history. Anything that creates content or buys live market data spends credits, and every account starts with free credits and no card.

Yes, and that is the part no other SEO MCP server has. You can run any prompt against ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot, Grok, Claude or Google AI Overviews on demand and get the answer text, every citation with its URL, and the query fan-out the engine actually issued.
