MCP tools · 11 exposed · ~937 tokens

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

Tool Tokens
audit_and_wait ~124

Runs a LightSpot SEO and AI-visibility audit on a URL, waits for it to finish, and returns a summary (score, top actions, main issues). Ideal for "audit this site and tell me what to fix". Can take 1 to 3 minutes; past the time limit, it returns the id so you can follow up with get_audit_status / get_audit.

NameTypeReqDescription
maxPagesinteger–Number of pages to crawl (capped by your plan).
urlstringyesURL to audit (home page or a specific page).

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

create_editorial_calendar ~94

Imports up to 50 dated editorial slots into a LightSpot site's calendar. The import is idempotent: externalId lets you update a slot without creating a duplicate. This action only creates the schedule; it does not generate, schedule or publish any content and consumes no AI credit.

NameTypeReqDescription
itemsarrayyesSlots to show in the LightSpot calendar.
siteIdstringyesLightSpot site identifier.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

get_audit ~69

Fetches the results of an audit: a summary by default (score, top actions, main issues), or the full payload with full=true (all pages and all issues).

NameTypeReqDescription
fullboolean–true for the full payload, otherwise a summary.
idstringyesAudit identifier.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

get_audit_status ~46

Lightweight status of an audit (PENDING/RUNNING/DONE/FAILED) with a progress value from 0 to 1.

NameTypeReqDescription
idstringyesAudit identifier.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

get_competitors ~67

Fetches a site's latest existing competitor analysis (detected competitors, tiers, citations, recommendations). Requires the Zenith plan. Does NOT trigger a new analysis — if none has been started from the app yet, returns status: "NONE".

NameTypeReqDescription
siteIdstringyesSite identifier.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

get_editorial_calendar ~94

Reads a site's LightSpot editorial calendar over a period: imported slots, content being prepared, scheduled or published, and upcoming autopilot runs.

NameTypeReqDescription
fromstringyesInclusive start of the period, ISO 8601 with time zone.
siteIdstringyesLightSpot site identifier.
tostringyesExclusive end of the period, ISO 8601 with time zone (366 days maximum).

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

get_expert_report ~238

Fetches the latest report from our 8 experts (technical SEO, editorial quality, AI visibility, structured data, sitemaps, performance, visual analysis, brand authority) produced after a site audit: prioritized findings, recommended actions with their steps, limitations and ready-to-apply artifacts (JSON-LD, sitemap…). Summary by default (findings + actions); full=true adds the rationale of the actions, the limitations, the artifacts and the evidence; expert=… limits the read to a single expert (useful with full=true to read one whole chapter without loading everything). auditId targets the analysis of a specific audit, otherwise the site's most recent one. Does NOT trigger an analysis — if none exists, returns status: "NONE"; PENDING/RUNNING = try again later.

NameTypeReqDescription
auditIdstring–Identifier of a specific audit (otherwise the site's latest analysis).
expertstring–Return only this expert's chapter.
fullboolean–true for the full report (rationale, limitations, artifacts, evidence), otherwise a summary.

Common questions

What is the LightSpot MCP server?

LightSpot is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.nmarijane/lightspot-mcp. Audit a website for SEO and AI search visibility (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini) and read the fixes. This page covers its npm package (@lightspot/mcp).

Is the LightSpot MCP server safe to use?

LightSpot scores 84 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 5 November 2026. It declares no install or post-install scripts. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

What tools does the LightSpot MCP server expose?

LightSpot exposes 11 tools: audit_and_wait, run_audit, get_audit_status, get_audit, list_sites, and 6 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 937 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Is the LightSpot MCP server still maintained?

LightSpot is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 5 November 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.

What licence is the LightSpot MCP server under?

LightSpot declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.

What did VerifyMCP test on the LightSpot MCP server?

VerifyMCP ran 16 checks on LightSpot, covering Malware scan, Known CVEs, Install scripts, Dependency health and 12 more. Endpoint Security and Transport & Reachability do not apply to an npm package, so they were not tested. The score does not measure everything, and the scoring documentation lists what it leaves out.
