Core

  • Pass
    Reachable

    Latest probe returned HTTP 200 in 579 ms.

  • Pass
    Valid handshake

  • Pass
    Lists tools

    tools/list returned 15 tools.

  • Pass
    Current protocol

    Negotiated 2025-06-18. The bar is 2025-06-18 or newer.

  • Pass
    HTTPS

    The endpoint URL is https.

Performance

  • Not measured
    Fast (p50)

    Median latency 579 ms over 1 samples in 7 days. The bar is 1000 ms. Need at least 5 samples.

  • Not measured
    Consistent (p95)

    95th percentile 579 ms over 1 samples in 7 days. The bar is 3000 ms. Need at least 20 samples.

  • Not measured
    Reliable (uptime)

    1 of 1 attempts returned a tool list in 30 days (100%). The bar is 99%. Need at least 30 samples.

  • Not measured
    Stable tool list

    Fewer than two successful probes in 30 days, so tool-list stability is not measured.

Access

  • Pass
    Open access

    tools/list succeeded with no credential, and the record declares none.

  • Not measured
    Standard auth

    Auth is not required, so the OAuth metadata check does not apply.

  • Not measured
    Free tier cited

    No publisher quote has been checked.

Tools

  • Pass
    Tools described

    Every tool description is at least 20 characters.

  • Pass
    Valid input schemas

    Every inputSchema is a JSON Schema object.

  • Fail
    Parameters documented

    13 of 21 parameters have a description (62%). The bar is 80%.

  • Fail
    Safety hints

    15 tools set neither readOnlyHint nor destructiveHint.

Publisher

  • Pass
    Verified namespace

    Listed in the Official MCP Registry.

  • Fail
    Website matches publisher

    The website host does not match the reverse-domain namespace.

  • Fail
    Source repo linked

    No repository URL is on file.

  • Not measured
    Repo owner matches

    This namespace is not an io.github login, so the owner comparison does not apply.

  • Pass
    Recently updated

    Updated 2026-07-19T01:24:01.572253Z, within 180 days.

Capabilities

Tools 15

check_aeo_record

Check any domain (cataloged or not) for a v=AEO1 DNS record at _aeo.<domain>, the open standard (aeorecord.org) declaring whether a verified fact record exists and at what trust tier. Verifies the Ed25519 sig= against the live catalog content when present.

Discovered
check_serp

Check the live Google search results for any keyword: the top 10 organic results (rank, domain, title), the People Also Ask questions, related searches, and which non-organic blocks occupy the page, so you can tell whether a query has an AI Overview or local pack slot at all. Public data, no catalog entry required. A keyword with genuinely no results returns empty arrays, which is a real finding, not an error.

Discovered
generate_fixes

Get the paste-ready patches Grounded AEO generated from its own measurements of a cataloged domain: per-page <title>/<meta description> blocks for pages the crawl flagged, robots.txt Allow lines for AI crawlers measured as blocked, FAQPage/Organization JSON-LD built from published verified facts, and an /llms.txt file. Every line is the site's own text, the owner's published facts, or a measurement — no language model wrote any of it, and a patch that could not be built honestly is skipped and counted rather than guessed. USE THIS TO ACT: if you have write access to the site's codebase, apply each patch to the file that serves its path, then re-run run_audit to confirm. Claimed domains only; deterministic and read-only on our side.

Discovered
generate_free_record

FINAL STEP of making a site AI-citable: generate a free, self-declared v=AEO1 DNS record and .well-known/aeo.json the user publishes on their own domain, so AI engines can verify the facts came from the owner rather than a scrape. Returns the exact TXT record and JSON file with publishing instructions. No crawl, no verification, no account. WRITE action, rate-limited to 10/hour per caller.

Discovered
get_citations

Get the latest citation check per (question, engine) for a cataloged domain: the question asked, the engine, whether the answer cited this domain, the URL of theirs it cited, and the day checked. Claimed domains only, read-only, one row per cell so re-running the checker cannot inflate anything. The engine answers are stored verbatim as the evidence behind each verdict but are NOT served here; the owner sees those in their dashboard. An empty list means no check has run yet, never "never cited".

Discovered
get_cited_domains

Get who the answers cited instead: the domains that appeared in the stored answers for a cataloged domain's tracked questions, ranked by how many answers cited them, with the engines that did. Claimed domains only. An appearance means a domain was cited by an answer we asked for: not an endorsement, not a quality ranking, not a claim that an engine prefers it. One appearance per answer however many of that site's pages it cited, latest check per cell only, and answers with no captured evidence contribute nothing rather than counting as "cited nobody".

Discovered
get_company_facts

Get the verified fact record for a company by domain from the Grounded AEO catalog. Returns the published (approved) facts with verification state and confidence: the data an AI agent should ground answers about this business on.

Discovered
get_competitive_snapshot

Get the latest competitive intelligence for a cataloged domain: the owner's most recent ranking-footprint snapshot, the AI-prompt vs Google demand table for its watched keywords, and each tracked competitor with their own latest snapshot. Read-only. Only domains whose owner has claimed them are exposed; anything else returns found:false. Counts are ranking FOOTPRINT, never traffic, and every volume is a modelled estimate. A null means no estimate has been collected, never zero.

Discovered
get_engine_visibility

Get the per-engine picture for a cataloged domain: whether each AI engine's crawler is allowed by robots.txt to read the site at all, and how many of the tracked questions that engine cited it on. Claimed domains only. Nothing is assumed: an engine with no crawl measurement reports can_read:null ("not measured", never an assumed allow), and an engine with no citation checks reports cited/tracked null ("untested", never a miss and never zero). Access and citations only: this says nothing about traffic.

Discovered
get_fact

Get a single verified fact for a company by domain and fact key (e.g. "tagline", "description").

Discovered
get_keyword_gap

Get the keyword gap for a cataloged domain: phrases a tracked competitor holds a position for in our stored captures where this domain holds none ("absent"), or holds one at least 20 places further back ("behind"). Claimed domains only, computed from captures already on disk. Nothing is fetched and nothing is spent. The stored lists are a SAMPLE of each domain's footprint (the top rows a capture kept), so absence here is absence from our sample, never from public search; the response carries that sentence and it must be repeated wherever the result is shown. Positions are ranking footprint, never traffic.

Discovered
get_llms_txt

Get the auto-generated llms.txt for a cataloged company: a curated, AI-readable guide to the business.

Discovered
propose_briefs

Propose ranked content briefs for a cataloged domain, built from data already collected for it: tracked questions where the answer did not cite them, keywords with AI-prompt demand no tracked question covers, People Also Ask questions nothing answers, and terms asked far more of AI assistants than of Google. Each brief names the exact question to answer, a format (9:16 UGC video, on-site answer, or short post), an outline, and the ONLY claims that may be made: the owner's published verified facts, verbatim. Deterministic and read-only: no new data is fetched and nothing is generated, so a brief with no evidence behind it is never returned. Claimed domains only; up to 6 briefs; an empty list means there is not yet enough collected data, never that there is no opportunity.

Discovered
run_audit

Audit AND FIX a site for AI citation + SEO. Crawls the domain, scores AI-readability 0-10, checks for a v=AEO1 record, and returns the material needed to FIX it: `seoReport.headSnippet` is ready-to-paste <head> markup (title, meta description, Organization JSON-LD) and `setup_prompt` is a step-by-step plan covering llms.txt, structured data, and AI-crawler access, plus a ranked list of gaps. Use it to build the fixes, apply them to the site, then CALL THIS AGAIN to verify the score improved and the gaps cleared. WRITE action (queues extracted facts, unverified until a human approves). Free, no account, rate-limited to 5/hour per caller.

Discovered
search_catalog

Search the Grounded AEO catalog by company name or domain. Returns up to 10 matches with tier and verification state.
