# GetIntel MCP server

> What GetIntel's MCP server is, what your coding agent can do with it, how access and brands work, and where to start.

Source: https://getintel.ai/docs/mcp/

GetIntel runs a remote **MCP (Model Context Protocol) server**. Connect it to [Claude Code](/blog/ai-visibility-tools-mcp-claude-code/), Cursor, Codex CLI, Claude Desktop or any MCP client, and your agent can read everything GetIntel knows about your AI visibility, then act on it: in your task list, and in your real codebase.

**Endpoint:** `https://app.getintel.ai/mcp`

## What your agent can do

- **Read your data** with 27 read tools: your overview, topics, AI answers, competitors, sources, pages, brand perception, Reddit, technical scan, AI traffic, Search Console and tasks.
- **Act** with 3 action tools: update tasks, plan the week, and re-run the technical scan. Action tools need a token with action access.
- **Change your site.** Coding agents like Claude Code, Cursor and Codex CLI combine GetIntel's findings with your repository: read a task, edit the page, open a pull request.

## How it works

| | |
| --- | --- |
| **Transport** | Streamable HTTP, JSON-RPC 2.0 |
| **Authentication** | Sign-in over OAuth for clients that support it, or an `Authorization: Bearer <token>` header with a token created in GetIntel |
| **Scope** | Each token sees one brand: the brand selected when it was created |
| **Permissions** | Read-only by default; action access is opt-in per token |
| **Time ranges** | Last 7 days by default; up to 90 days where a tool supports periods |
| **Limits** | A monthly read quota per plan; see [Usage and limits](/docs/mcp/usage-and-limits/) |

<Aside>
The MCP server is included on every plan. It reads the same data as the app, so an agent's numbers match what you see on screen.
