Stobo MCP Server

⚠️ Retired (May 2026). The Stobo SEO/AEO audit service has been shut down and its API is no longer available. This MCP server no longer performs audits — it exposes a single stobo_status tool that reports the retirement and nothing else. Published versions remain installable for archival purposes only. Thank you to everyone who used it.

Audit any site for SEO, AEO, and E-E-A-T from Claude Desktop. Get a structured fix brief your developer can drop straight into Claude Code, Cursor, or VS Code and start shipping.

You: stobo this site: example.com

Claude: I just received a complete audit for example.com. SEO, AEO, EEAT,
per-page breakdowns, 30+ checks with scores and details.

Want me to generate a fix brief you can download and drop into
Claude Code, Cursor, or hand off to your developer?

Why not just use web_fetch?

Fetching every page manually costs ~386,000 tokens across 16+ calls. It still misses Core Web Vitals, TTFB, and Flesch-Kincaid. Those metrics require server-side computation. Stobo runs everything in one call.

	Manual (web_fetch)	Stobo MCP
audit_site	71,000 tk · 6 fetches	20,000 tk · 1 call
audit_freshness	60,000 tk · 20 fetches	3,000 tk · 1 call
generate_llms_txt	35,000 tk · 6 fetches	3,000 tk · 1 call
extract_tone	35,000 tk · 10 fetches	5,000 tk · 1 call
Full suite	264,500 tk · 56 fetches	47,000 tk · 9 calls

82% fewer tokens. And you get metrics Claude cannot compute from raw HTML alone.

What happens after an audit

Claude receives 30+ scored checks across SEO, AEO, and E-E-A-T. It then offers a fix brief: structured markdown with every failing check, prioritized by impact, with specific fix instructions. Paste it into Claude Code, Cursor, or VS Code and start shipping.

Claude also offers generators for quick wins. Failing robots.txt? Claude generates one. Same for llms.txt, sitemap, and freshness code. The audit-to-fix loop runs in a single conversation.
