How to Automate Robots.txt Review with MCP (2026)

Why Automate Robots.txt Review?

Robots.txt Review is one of the most time-consuming recurring SEO tasks. Most teams do it manually: open a tool, navigate to the right report, export data, analyze in a spreadsheet, write up findings. An MCP-powered workflow replaces all of that with a single conversation.

When you automate robots.txt review with MCP, you get:

• Consistent results every time (no human error in data collection)
• Faster turnaround (minutes instead of hours)
• AI-powered analysis on top of raw data
• Reusable prompts you can run on schedule

Prerequisites

1. An AI editor that supports MCP (Claude Code, Perplexity, or similar)
2. Delulu9 MCP server ($12/mo) for keyword and search data
3. Optional: additional MCP servers for specialized data sources

Step-by-Step: Automated Robots.txt Review

1. Set Up Your MCP Servers

Add Delulu9 to your editor configuration:

      "env": {
        "DELULU9_API_KEY": "your-api-key"
      }
    }
  }
}
