Run Surfer SEO Audits via the MCP Server

To audit a piece of content, you execute `create_seo_audit` by providing the URL and target keyword. This initializes a full report within your dev environment. You can then pull specific data points using `get_audit_details` to verify requirements.

Manage Content Editors in Cline

The tool `list_content_editors` lets you see every content editor query stored in your account. This is great for maintaining a manifest of all assets that need optimization. You can then use `get_content_editor_details` to inspect their current guidelines.

Analyze SERP Data with the MCP Server

Need competitive keywords? Run `create_serp_analyzer`, and once results are ready, fetch them using `get_serp_results`. This helps you build components based on what actual top-ranking pages are doing. It's all about structured data extraction.
