Rank Tracker MCP Tools
Read stored keyword positions, markets, devices, analysis history, and segments with Screpy Rank Tracker MCP tools.
Rank Tracker tools let an AI client inspect keyword tracking already stored in a Screpy project. A position belongs to a particular keyword, market, device, and analysis time. Start with the project returned by list_projects; do not treat a stored position as a fresh SERP lookup.
Find the right keyword record
| Tool | Use it when | Check in the result |
|---|---|---|
get_rank_tracker_options | You need supported countries, languages, devices, or segment rules. | Return codes rather than guessing a market. |
get_rank_tracker_overview | You need project-level visibility, position distribution, frequency, or plan usage. | Time window and available keyword count. |
list_rank_tracker_keywords | You need a bounded keyword list filtered by search, device, segment, or unmatched state. | Keyword ID, market, device, status, last analysis, and cursor. |
get_rank_tracker_keyword | You need stored history and results for one returned keyword ID. | Analysis status, matched URL, position, date, and previous result. |
list_rank_tracker_segments | You need saved segment names, match counts, or unmatched-keyword context. | Project-scoped segment IDs and counts. |
preview_rank_tracker_segment | You want to test rules without saving them. | Examples, match count, average position, and overlap. |
Keyword and segment IDs are numeric and project-scoped. Obtain them from the listing tools before calling detail or management tools. A null position can mean the stored analysis did not find the site; inspect status and result coverage before interpreting it.
Read a ranking change
List my accessible projects and select [PROJECT]. Find the tracked keyword
[KEYWORD] for [COUNTRY], [LANGUAGE], and [DEVICE]. Show the latest completed
analysis and its previous comparable result, including dates, matched URLs,
positions, and any missing-result limit. Do not add or delete keywords.Compare like with like: the same market, language, device, and keyword. A position movement alone does not establish that a website change caused it. Use the Rank Tracker analysis workflow for a fuller investigation.
Changes require a separate decision
add_rank_tracker_keywords creates mobile, desktop, or both device records and starts initial analysis; it consumes plan capacity and requires explicit confirmation. Keyword deletion also requires confirmation. Segment creation and updates require an explicit request to save rules; segment deletion requires confirmation. Use preview_rank_tracker_segment for a read-only check first.
The MCP server does not provide a Rank Tracker export, live SERP lookup, or manual reanalysis of an existing keyword. Use security and permissions to understand action boundaries and troubleshooting when a tracked result is unavailable.
