Google Search Console MCP server & Claude connector

Does Google Search Console have an official MCP server or Claude connector?

Community only

As of October 2026, no official Google Search Console MCP server is verified: Google's Workspace MCP servers do not include it, and every Search Console server found is a community project. Community servers use Google credentials you create, mostly read-only for analytics, with some adding sitemap and indexing submission. Claude connector status is not verified.
