Is this a client-specific setup guide?

No. The H1 is client-agnostic. Paste the hosted URL into any MCP-capable assistant as a remote server. Connecting Search Console and ticking properties still happens on Get MCP Ads. ChatGPT and Codex can use the same URL. Official Google Ads MCP still does not include Search Console, so the join with organic queries is this gateway.

Can the assistant request indexing?

No. The Search Console source is read only. gsc_inspect_url and gsc_bulk_inspect_urls read inspection status. gsc_list_sitemaps and gsc_get_sitemap_health read submitted sitemaps. There is no write tool to submit a sitemap or to request indexing. Do not expect a confirm:true path on this source.

Does official Google Ads MCP include Search Console?

No. Official Google Ads MCP is three read-only Ads API tools you run yourself, with no Google-hosted URL. Search Console is a different API. This gateway ships both, plus GA4, as separate live sources on one URL, each with its own ticked-account allowlist.

How many properties can the assistant see after I connect?

Only the properties you tick. Connecting a Google identity that can see many Search Console sites lists them and leaves them unticked. The gateway answers only for ticked IDs. The check runs server-side, including through run_tool. Untick to drop access on the next call.

Can I join Search Console to Google Ads in one question?

Yes, once both sources are connected and ticked. Paid search terms live in Google Ads; organic queries live in Search Console. The assistant calls google_ads_* and gsc_* in one thread. That is the point of one hosted URL. Official Google Ads MCP cannot do that join because it has no GSC tools.

Do you ship X Ads next to Search Console?

No. There is no X Ads source. Microsoft Advertising is soon: OAuth exists, tools do not. Live sources are Meta Ads, Google Ads, TikTok Ads, Pinterest Ads, GA4 and Search Console. Official X and Microsoft MCPs are separate products, not rows on this picker.

Connect Search Console to an assistant via MCP

Google Search Console is a live source on the hosted MCP URL, with 18 read-only tools. You connect it in the dashboard, tick properties, then paste the URL into Claude. Official Google Ads MCP does not include Search Console. There is no write on this source, and no X Ads on this gateway.

Key takeaways

Search Console on this gateway is 18 tools, all read only.
Ticking a Search Console property is a separate allowlist from Google Ads customers.
Official Google Ads MCP is ads-only: 3 read-only tools, no GSC, no Google-hosted URL.
The same URL also carries Google Ads (38 tools) and GA4 if you connect them.
An agent cannot complete OAuth or the ticked-property allowlist.
There is no X Ads source. Microsoft Advertising is soon, with no tools.

How do you connect Search Console to an assistant?Link to this section

Add the hosted URL https://mcp.getmcpads.com/mcp as a remote MCP server in your client. Connecting Search Console and ticking properties still happens on Get MCP Ads. Those two steps need a person.

Open your MCP client and add a remote MCP server.
Paste https://mcp.getmcpads.com/mcp as the server URL and confirm.
Approve the sign-in page. Connecting platforms and ticking accounts still happens on Get MCP Ads, not inside the client.

The H1 of this page is client-agnostic on purpose. ChatGPT and Codex can use the same URL; they are not repeated here.

What can you ask Search Console?Link to this section

Worked prompts mapped to shipped gsc_* tools

Ask	Tools
Which of our pages are competing against each other in Search?	`gsc_detect_cannibalization`, then `gsc_cluster_queries`
Where did we lose clicks between this month and last?	`gsc_find_losses_gains`, then `gsc_query_search_analytics`
Compare Web, Image and Discover for this property.	`gsc_compare_search_types`, then `gsc_get_data_freshness`

When should you not use this GSC source?Link to this section

You need to submit a sitemap or inspect-and-index as a write. This source is read only. gsc_inspect_url reads inspection status; it does not request indexing.
The property is not ticked. Connecting the Google identity is not enough.
You only wanted Google's official Ads MCP. That server does not include Search Console.
You need X Ads or Microsoft Advertising tools. This gateway does not ship them.
