Architecture

How It Works

The MCP server connects your AI assistant to UCPReady.ai's scanning API. When you invoke a tool, the server sends requests to ucpready.ai, processes the results, and returns a formatted report directly in your conversation. No API keys required — the same free tier limits apply as the web tools.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is MCP (Model Context Protocol)?

MCP is an open protocol that connects AI assistants like Claude to external tools and data sources. It allows AI coding environments to call specialized tools — like UCPReady's scanner — directly from your conversation, without leaving your workflow.

Do I need an API key to use the MCP server?

No. The MCP server uses UCPReady.ai's free public API. The same rate limits apply as the web tools — 3 full scans per day and 15 tool checks per day per IP address. No signup or authentication required.

What AI environments are supported?

Any MCP-compatible client works, including Claude Code (Anthropic's CLI), Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, and other editors that support the Model Context Protocol. Installation takes one command.

What can I scan with the MCP server?

Any public e-commerce store URL. The full scan checks all 4 pillars of AI readiness: Protocol Support (UCP manifest), Crawler Access (robots.txt), Data Quality (schema.org markup), and AI Visibility. You can also run individual checks for schema validation, crawler access, or llms.txt generation.

Is the MCP server free and open source?

Yes. The ucpready-mcp package is free to install and use. It's published on npm and the source code is available in the UCPReady GitHub repository.
