How I Turned my AI agent Into an SEO Manager Using MCP (open-source)

Every day i would do the same SEO routine: find keywords, check google results, write an article, publish it, track rankings.

So i thought why not turn my agent, the same agent that knows my product inside out, into my own SEO Manager!

And it works... so why not open-source it?

I made a dashboard to control and track everything, an MCP server to connect the dashboard to my agent

How it's built:

  • The agent (Claude Code or Codex, your pick) runs inside GitHub Actions on a cron. (it's self-hosted so BYO subscription)

  • The backend is an MCP server, there's no AI in it at all, it's just a database with a door on it.

  • Most of the MCP tools are just reads and writes to Postgres. A few pass through to DataForSEO for keyword and SERP data.

  • The agent does the thinking, the server does the remembering.

  • The agent fetches its instructions from the server when the run starts.

  • It never writes to the site directly. Always a PR, with checks run against it first.

  • Works with Claude Code and Codex coding agents (more to come)

Key features:

  • research keywords

  • analyze rankings

  • create content workflows

  • monitor search performance

Fully open-source (AGPL-3.0)

Would love feedback from people building with agents
