# Connect your agent

Point an MCP client at https://seo-mcp.io/mcp. The server answers with the tips that apply to the project the
agent is already working in.

## Get access

Create or copy a key in the dashboard, or complete the MCP OAuth connector. While checkout is in
pre-order, request access from https://seo-mcp.io/pricing#waitlist and the owner grants it.

## Connect Claude

Claude Desktop / claude.ai: Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector with the URL below.
Claude Code:

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http seo-mcp https://seo-mcp.io/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer sk-..."
```

## Connect Cursor or another client

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "seo-mcp": {
      "url": "https://seo-mcp.io/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer sk-..." }
    }
  }
}
```

## What to ask

“Connect to seo-mcp.io and work on the SEO of this project.” The agent calls start_seo_session,
profiles the repo, works the ranked plan, and records each result with mark_applied and verify_tip.
