The audit tools an AI assistant can call.

Connect your AI assistant directly to your Website Toolkit audits using the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Let it read results, fix issues in your code, and mark them as resolved automatically.

Quick start

1

Generate a token: Client portal → Domains → API access → Generate token.

2

Add the server to Claude (the portal shows this command pre-filled).

claude mcp add --transport http wsc-crawler https://eu2.website-toolkit.co.uk/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN"

Once connected, ask: "what's still outstanding on the latest audit for example.com?"

Transport & Authentication

The MCP server is a stateless JSON-RPC 2.0 transport over a single POST /mcp endpoint.

Authentication

Uses the same Bearer token as the REST API. Revoking in the portal takes effect immediately.

Origin Validation

DNS-rebinding guard: Origin header is checked. Native MCP clients (Claude Code) send none and are allowed.

MCP Methods

We implement a minimal, spec-compliant subset of the Model Context Protocol.

MethodBehaviour
initializeHandshake. Returns capabilities and server info.
tools/listReturns the seven audit tools with full JSON Schemas.
tools/callInvoke one of the audit tools.
pingStandard health check.

Audit Tools

These are the tools your AI assistant will see and use to work through your site.

list_domains

List all domains on the account and their latest audit status.

add_domain

Add a new domain to the account for auditing.

list_crawls

Get a history of all audits/crawls for a specific domain.

get_audit_results

Pull pages, issues, links, or resources from a specific crawl.

resolve_issue

Mark an issue as fixed in the context of a specific crawl.

unresolve_issue

Re-open an issue previously marked as fixed.

start_audit

Kick off a new basic or advanced audit for a domain.

Error Handling

Tool Failures vs Protocol Faults

A rejected tool call (e.g. invalid domain) returns isError: true within a successful JSON-RPC call. This allows the model to read the error and correct its next step.

"isError": true,
"text": "Error: Invalid mode. Expected ''basic'' or ''advanced''"

Key Caveats

Issue IDs are ephemeral

issueId is re-assigned on every crawl. An ID from Monday's audit means nothing in Friday's. Always use the crawlId the ID came from to avoid resolving the wrong issue.

"Fixed" resets on re-crawl

Marking an issue as fixed is scoped to that specific crawl. If the fix didn't actually land on the site, the next audit will re-detect it. This ensures the assistant can't "mark its own homework" without verification.
