Integration

Connect Google Search Console to OpenAI Codex

One MCP URL gives Codex live access to your Search Console and GA4 data — no Python setup, no API keys to manage, no CSV exports. Works in every Codex environment that supports remote MCP servers.

Connect in 4 steps (under 60 seconds)

    1

    Create a free GenieSeo account

    Go to /signup and sign up with your email. No credit card required during the beta. The whole process takes under 20 seconds.

    2

    Connect your Google account

    Click 'Connect Google'. One consent screen grants read-only access to Google Search Console (webmasters.readonly) and GA4 (analytics.readonly). GenieSeo never writes to your data.

    3

    Copy your personal MCP URL

    Your dashboard displays a personal URL like https://seo.geniedial.in/mcp/u/YOUR_TOKEN. Copy it. This URL is your credential — keep it private and don't commit it to source control.

    4

    Add to your Codex environment

    In your Codex configuration, add GenieSeo as a remote MCP server and paste your personal URL. Codex will automatically discover all 28 available tools. You can now query Search Console and GA4 data directly from any Codex workflow.

What developers use GenieSeo + Codex for

Codex users tend to be engineers and technical teams who want SEO data in the same place they're already writing code and running analysis. GenieSeo's 28 tools unlock a class of SEO automation that wasn't practical before MCP.

Technical SEO from the command line

For engineers

Inspect the indexing status of any URL, check whether a page is canonicalised correctly, audit sitemaps for errors, and cross-reference crawl coverage with your deploy history — all without opening a browser. Codex can call GenieSeo tools in a loop across hundreds of URLs and return a structured report you can pipe into your existing observability tooling.

Deploy regression checks

Catch SEO regressions fast

After a significant deploy, use Codex to call GenieSeo's URL inspection tools against your critical pages and compare indexing status, coverage type, and last crawl date to a pre-deploy baseline. If a deploy accidentally removes a canonical tag, blocks a page with robots meta, or causes a redirect chain, GenieSeo will surface it in the same post-deploy verification step you already run. No separate SEO monitoring subscription needed for basic coverage checks.

Automated performance summaries

Scheduled reporting

Write a Codex workflow that runs weekly, calls GenieSeo to pull the top 50 queries by clicks and compare them to the previous week, formats the delta as a JSON payload, and posts it to your Slack channel or internal dashboard. The entire pipeline is code you control — GenieSeo provides the live data, Codex provides the automation, and you own the output format.

28 tools available to Codex

When Codex connects to GenieSeo via MCP, it discovers all tools automatically. Here are the most-used ones by developer teams:

list_properties

List all Search Console properties the connected Google account can access.

get_search_analytics

Pull query performance data: clicks, impressions, CTR, position. Filter by page, country, or device.

inspect_url_enhanced

Check indexing status, coverage verdict, canonical URL, and last crawl date for any URL.

batch_url_inspection

Inspect up to 10 URLs in a single call — ideal for post-deploy checks.

get_sitemaps

List all submitted sitemaps and their status for a given property.

compare_search_periods

Compare two date ranges and return the delta for clicks, impressions, and position.

run_ga4_report

Query GA4 dimensions and metrics for a given property and date range.

check_indexing_issues

Surface coverage issues across a property: excluded pages, crawl errors, and redirect chains.

FAQ

What MCP transport does GenieSeo use?+

GenieSeo uses Streamable HTTP MCP transport, defined in the MCP specification dated 2025-03-26. This is the current standard transport for remote MCP servers and is the transport supported by OpenAI Codex, Claude, and other modern AI clients. The older SSE transport is not supported.

Does the MCP URL work in all Codex environments?+

GenieSeo's MCP URL works in any Codex environment that supports remote MCP servers via Streamable HTTP. Your personal URL (https://seo.geniedial.in/mcp/u/YOUR_TOKEN) is a standard HTTPS endpoint — no VPN, no special network access, no localhost tunnel required. It works from your local machine, a cloud environment, or a CI/CD pipeline.

Can I use GenieSeo in Claude AND Codex with the same URL?+

Yes. Your personal MCP URL is not tied to a single client. Paste the same URL into Claude's Connectors settings, Cursor's MCP configuration, OpenAI Codex, or any other MCP-compatible tool. Each client gets independent access to the same live Search Console and GA4 data. You can run a Codex workflow and a Claude conversation simultaneously with no conflicts.
