Description from the maker (original English)
Run SEO Content Machine tasks from an MCP client: scraping, crawls, Google Maps, Workspace pages.
These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.
We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.
Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

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.
You need to fill in: SCM_API_KEY
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).

GA4 MCP server for AI agents: schema discovery, server-side aggregation, analysis-ready defaults.
AI video summarizer: summarize and transcribe YouTube, Bilibili, TikTok and podcast videos.
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.
Connects Claude Code, Codex, Claude Desktop or any MCP client to SEO Content Machine (SCM), the desktop SEO workspace.
Your assistant can then create and run SCM tasks and read their results: article scraping from search results, site crawls, search result lists, Google Maps listings, YouTube subtitles, archive.org downloads and SEO Workspace pages. The work runs inside the SCM app on your machine, with its own browser and task queue.
Claude Code:
claude mcp add scm -- npx -y seo-content-machine-mcp
Any other MCP client, in its config file:
{
"mcpServers": { "scm": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "seo-content-machine-mcp"] } } }
If you set an API key in SCM (Settings > App > Api secret key), pass it as SCM_API_KEY. If SCM's API runs somewhere other than http://localhost:8008, set SCM_API_URL.

SCM serves MCP over HTTP at /mcp inside the app. This package is a small stdio relay: the client talks to it over stdin and stdout, and it forwards each message to the app. You can start SCM before or after your MCP client. While SCM is closed the server lists no tools, and it tells the client to list them again once SCM starts. Tool calls made while SCM is closed return an error that says to start it.
