MCP Server
Tools come from Ahrefs' own MCP server at https://api.ahrefs.com/mcp/mcp. Paradev proxies each call and adds your credentials. Ahrefs decides which tools the server offers, so see Ahrefs' tool categories for the current list. The server needs an Ahrefs Lite plan or higher, and calls use your workspace's API units.
Authentication
| Method | Details |
|---|---|
| OAuth 2.0 | You sign in to Ahrefs in your browser, select a workspace, and approve access. Paradev registers itself with Ahrefs when you connect, so there is no app to set up first. Ahrefs issues no refresh token, so reconnect when the access token expires. |
Connect from the plugin's page in Plugins. Paradev keeps the credentials. The agent and your machine never see them. Ahrefs does not tell Paradev which workspace a token belongs to, so you can connect one Ahrefs workspace at a time. Connecting again replaces the previous connection.
