Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "lightspot": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@lightspot/mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "LIGHTSPOT_API_KEY": "your-value",
        "LIGHTSPOT_BASE_URL": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add lightspot --env LIGHTSPOT_API_KEY=your-value --env LIGHTSPOT_BASE_URL=your-value -- npx -y @lightspot/mcp

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "lightspot": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@lightspot/mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "LIGHTSPOT_API_KEY": "your-value",
        "LIGHTSPOT_BASE_URL": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "lightspot": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",

        "LIGHTSPOT_API_KEY": "your-value",
        "LIGHTSPOT_BASE_URL": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

Common questions

Is LightSpot safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

You need to fill in: LIGHTSPOT_API_KEY

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.6.0) reached the registry 33 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

README from the maker

Copied from the maker’s repo as written. PopNx MCP has not reviewed or endorsed it. HTML, images and scripts are removed. Links lead off this site.

@lightspot/mcp

MCP server for LightSpot.ai — run SEO and AI-visibility audits, read their results and our experts' reports, and import editorial calendars from any MCP client (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, …).

It wraps the LightSpot public API (/v1) as MCP tools, so an AI assistant can *"audit this site and tell me why ChatGPT doesn't cite it"* in one step.

Requirements

A LightSpot API key (lspai_live_…) — create one in LightSpot → Integrations → API keys. API access is included in the Eclat and Zenith plans.
Node.js ≥ 18 (run on demand via npx, nothing to install globally).

Setup

Add the server to your MCP client config and set your API key:

"mcpServers": { "lightspot": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@lightspot/mcp"], "env": { "LIGHTSPOT_API_KEY": "lspai_live_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" } } } }

Claude Desktop → claude_desktop_config.json
Claude Code → claude mcp add or your project's .mcp.json
Cursor → ~/.cursor/mcp.json

Environment variables

Variable	Required	Description
`LIGHTSPOT_API_KEY`	yes	Your API key (`lspai_live_…`).
`LIGHTSPOT_BASE_URL`	no	Override the API base URL (defaults to `https://lightspot.ai`). For self-hosted/testing only.

Claude plugin

The plugin/ folder packages this server as a Claude plugin: it pins @lightspot/mcp, asks for your API key once and stores it in your system's secure credential store, and adds an ai-visibility-audit skill. See plugin/README.md.

Tools

Tool	What it does
`audit_and_wait`	Run an audit on a URL, wait for it to finish, and return a summary (score, top actions, main issues). The one-shot "audit this and tell me what's wrong."
`run_audit`	Start an audit without waiting (returns the audit id).
`get_audit_status`	Lightweight status of an audit (`PENDING`/`RUNNING`/`DONE`/`FAILED` + progress 0–1).
`get_audit`	Audit results — a trimmed summary by default, or the full payload with `full: true`.
`list_sites`	List the sites in your team (with their latest score).
`get_site`	A site's metadata and recent audits.
`list_site_audits`	A site's paginated audit history.
`get_competitors`	Get a site's latest competitor analysis (detected competitors, tiers, citations, recommendations). Read-only — does not trigger a new analysis. Requires the Zenith plan.
`get_expert_report`	Read the latest report from our 8 experts (technical SEO, content, AI visibility, structured data, sitemaps, performance, visual, brand authority) for a site or a given audit: prioritized findings, recommended actions with steps, limitations and ready-to-apply artifacts. Summary by default, `full: true` for everything, `expert` to read one chapter. Read-only — does not trigger an analysis.
`get_editorial_calendar`	Read a site's calendar over an ISO date range, including imported slots and content already preparing, scheduled, or published.
`create_editorial_calendar`	Import or update up to 50 dated editorial slots. Idempotent with `externalId`; it does not generate or publish content.

Example prompts

"Audit https://example.com and give me the top 3 things to fix for AI visibility."
"List my LightSpot sites and which one has the lowest score."
"Get the full results for audit and group the issues by severity."
"What competitors were detected for my site , and what should I do about them?"
"Read the experts' report for my site and fix what the structured-data expert recommends in my codebase."
"Create a four-week editorial calendar for my site with two LinkedIn posts and one educational Reddit post per week, then import it into LightSpot."
"Show me everything planned or published for site between 2026-08-01T00:00:00+02:00 and 2026-09-01T00:00:00+02:00."

Notes

Quotas (audits/month, pages/audit) and per-key rate limits follow your LightSpot plan.
Importing editorial slots does not consume AI credits and never generates, schedules, or publishes content automatically.
The full REST API reference lives at lightspot.ai/docs/api.
