What Can It Do?
- Run full PageSpeed analysis to get Lighthouse scores across performance, accessibility, best practices, and SEO
- Get detailed Lighthouse audits for a specific category with individual audit results and recommendations
- Check Core Web Vitals field data (LCP, FID, CLS, INP, TTFB) from real-user metrics
- Analyze for desktop or mobile with locale-specific results
Where to Use It
In Agents (Recommended)
Add Google PageSpeed as a tool to any agent. The agent can analyze any URL conversationally and explain the results. To add an MCP tool to your agent:- Open your agent’s configuration
- Click Add tools → Connect an app with MCP
- Search for the integration and select it
- Authenticate with your Google PageSpeed API key
In Workflows (Via Agent Node)
For automated pipelines, use an Agent Node with Google PageSpeed tools. This gives you the flexibility of an agent within a deterministic workflow.As a Custom MCP Node
You can also create a standalone MCP node for a specific action. This generates a reusable node that performs one task, useful when you need the same operation repeatedly in workflows.- Go to your node library and search for the integration
- Click Create a node with AI
- Describe the specific action you want (e.g., “Run a mobile performance audit on my homepage”)
- Test the node and save it for reuse
Custom MCP nodes are single-purpose by design. For tasks that require multiple steps or dynamic decision-making, use an agent instead.

Example Prompts
Use these with your agent or in the Agent Node: Full site analysis:Troubleshooting
| Issue | Solution |
|---|---|
| No loading experience data | Field data requires sufficient real-user traffic. New or low-traffic pages may not have Core Web Vitals data available. |
| Authentication failed | Verify your Google PageSpeed API key is connected and valid |
| Slow response times | PageSpeed analysis runs a full Lighthouse audit which can take 10-30 seconds per request |
| Tool not available | Verify the tool is enabled in your agent’s MCP configuration |
| Unexpected results | The agent may chain multiple tools (e.g., running a full analysis then drilling into audits). Review the agent’s reasoning to understand its approach. |
