untrack_project
Stop tracking a project. It moves to the archive — its history and Search Console link are kept, and track_gsc_property brings it back unchanged.
Cost: Free (0 credits).
untrack_project stops tracking one of your projects by moving it to your archive. Nothing is deleted: the project, its crawls and reports, and its Search Console link stay exactly as they are, and track_gsc_property brings the same project back unchanged.
What it does
Pass the project_id of a project you no longer want on your dashboard — list_projects prints the ids. SeoGrep marks it archived and stops treating it as tracked. Running it again on a project that is already archived is a success, not an error, and it does not change the date you archived it.
Why it archives instead of deleting
Archiving is what makes coming back free. Everything that hangs off the project — its crawl history, its reports, and the Search Console property it reads through — stays attached to the same project id, so restoring it is not a rebuild. Deleting would throw that away and a re-added site would start from nothing.
To bring a project back, track its property again with track_gsc_property, or set the same domain up again with setup_project — either one restores the original project in place.
Example
Ask your MCP client in plain language:
Stop tracking my old-site.com project.
Run list_projects first if you need the project_id.
Input
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
project_id | string (uuid) | Yes | The project to stop tracking, from list_projects. |
Returns
Confirmation that the project was archived — its domain and project_id — together with how to bring it back. A project that is already archived says so and nothing changes. A project_id that is not yours is reported exactly like an id that does not exist.
