## What it does

This plugin integrates Google Search Console with Claude Code through the Model Context Protocol. It exposes tools to fetch search queries, click stats, and impressions directly in chat. You can also view or submit sitemaps to verify their status.

For indexing audits, tools like `batch_url_inspection` and `check_indexing_issues` inspect up to 10 URLs in parallel. That prevents timeouts when querying `sc-domain:*` properties. You can also track performance shifts across date ranges with `compare_search_periods`.

Authentication requires a Google Cloud project with the Search Console API enabled. The server accepts an OAuth desktop client JSON file or service account credentials. Without a valid credentials file from Google Cloud, the plugin cannot connect.

## What's New

### [0.4.1] — September 2026
- **`check_indexing_issues` runs concurrently** — same fix as #31, so it no longer times out on 10-URL batches against `sc-domain:*` properties. Thanks [@kuldiph](https://github.com/kuldiph). (#55)
- **Removed a leftover dead `orderBy`** in `get_search_by_page_query` (the Search Analytics API ignores it). Thanks [@kuldiph](https://github.com/kuldiph). (#55)

### [0.4.0] — September 2026
- **Rich-result issues now surface** — `inspect_url_enhanced` and `batch_url_inspection` read rich-result issues from the correct API path, so markup problems are reported instead of silently dropped. Thanks [@patrickweh](https://github.com/patrickweh). (#46, #48)
- **`batch_url_inspection` runs concurrently** — 10-URL batches no longer time out on `sc-domain:*` properties. Thanks [@remotesensei](https://github.com/remotesensei). (#31)
- **`compare_search_periods` deltas fixed** — Period 1 is now the analyzed period and Period 2 the baseline, so growth reads as growth (not decline). Thanks [@JKdreaming](https://github.com/JKdreaming). (#42)
- **`get_advanced_search_analytics` sorting works** — `sort_by`/`sort_direction` are now applied instead of silently ignored. Thanks [@kuldiph](https://github.com/kuldiph). (#54)
- **Hardened error handling** — replaced bare `except:` clauses so fatal signals aren't swallowed. Thanks [@kuldiph](https://github.com/kuldiph). (#53)
- **Note:** `batch_url_inspection` renames the per-URL `verdict` field to `index_verdict` to distinguish it from the rich-result verdict.

### [0.3.3] — July 2026
- **Fixed fresh installs broken by `mcp` 2.0** — pinned `mcp[cli]<2.0.0`. The `mcp` SDK 2.0.0 (released 2026-07-28) removed the `mcp.server.fastmcp` module, so every fresh `uvx mcp-search-console` install crashed on startup with `ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'mcp.server.fastmcp'`. New installs now resolve a working 1.x SDK again — no `--with "mcp<2"` workaround needed.

### [0.3.2] — April 2026
- **OAuth browser flow fixed for uvx** — removed the `isatty` block that prevented the browser login window from opening when running as an MCP subprocess on macOS. OAuth now works out of the box with `uvx`, no manual terminal run needed.
- **`get_capabilities` tool added** — call this to get a full list of available tools and current auth status in one shot. Useful when your AI assistant isn't sure what tools are available.
- **Better auth error messages** — all tools now tell you exactly what to do when credentials are missing or expired.
