Security and access

Where requests go, whose account Claude uses, and what you control.

Server

api.ahrefs.com

On the developer’s own domain (ahrefs.com), not a third-party host. Claude sends requests here when it uses a tool.

Account

Your own Ahrefs account

You sign in when you connect. Claude works through that account, so it reaches what the account can reach.

Control

You approve write tools

In Claude’s connector settings you can choose, tool by tool, whether Claude must ask before using it. Write tools are marked in the list above. See write tools

    Questions people ask

    What does the Ahrefs connector do in Claude?

    Research keywords, analyze backlinks, track rankings, and monitor brand visibility across traditional search and AI platforms. Discover keyword opportunities, compare competitor performance, audit link profiles, and measure share of voice in LLM responses. Claude combines multiple Ahrefs analyses in a single conversation — asking clarifying questions, cross-referencing data points, and turning complex SEO metrics into actionable insights.

    Is the Ahrefs connector official?

    It is made by Ahrefs Pte. Ltd. and carries the Anthropic verified mark in Anthropic’s directory. This site is independent and lists it from the official directory.

    What is the Ahrefs MCP server URL?

    https://api.ahrefs.com/mcp/mcp. It is a remote MCP server hosted at api.ahrefs.com. Paste it into Claude as a custom connector, or add it to Claude Code with: claude mcp add --transport http ahrefs https://api.ahrefs.com/mcp/mcp

    How do I add Ahrefs to Claude Code?

    Run "claude mcp add --transport http ahrefs https://api.ahrefs.com/mcp/mcp" in your terminal, then start Claude Code, type /mcp, choose ahrefs and sign in to Ahrefs. Add "--scope user" to make it available in every project.

    Do I need a Ahrefs account?

    Yes. You sign in to Ahrefs when you connect it, and Claude works through that account.

    Can Claude change or delete my Ahrefs data?

    Judging by tool names, 2 of its 61 tools only read. The names of the other 59 do not make clear whether they change data, so check them in the connector’s settings.
