What is Calibre?
Calibre MCP lets your coding agent read RUM and Lighthouse data, then fix the slow code
Calibre now ships a read-only MCP server that gives Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Copilot, Claude and ChatGPT access to an account's RUM, CrUX and Synthetic data, included on every plan with nothing to install. It lands days after Test Agents moved to Chrome 156 and Lighthouse 13.6.0, which added audits for how AI agents read pages. Admins can disable MCP per organisation and revoke connections, and the Company-plan audit log records them.
What is Whatagraph?
Whatagraph's IQ Agents now watch ad accounts and act on them, not just report.
Whatagraph builds client reports for agencies and ships most weeks. In late October it launched IQ Agents, which watch marketing accounts on a schedule, report problems to Slack and act through MCP in Meta, Asana and HubSpot. Mid-October brought Excel attachments in report emails, six Ahrefs report types including AI citations, stored blends and ad creatives in tables.

◆ Current state
Calibre now ships a read-only MCP server that gives Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Copilot, Claude and ChatGPT access to an account's RUM, CrUX and Synthetic data, included on every plan with nothing to install. It lands days after Test Agents moved to Chrome 156 and Lighthouse 13.6.0, which added audits for how AI agents read pages. Admins can disable MCP per organisation and revoke connections, and the Company-plan audit log records them.
◆ Where it's heading
Calibre is turning its monitoring data into something agents act on rather than something people read in dashboards. The summer work on deployment markers, all-pages aggregates and the audit log built the context and governance an agent needs: which deploy, which page, who connected. Expect the remaining surface to follow the same path, with agents both querying performance and being measured by it.
◆ Prediction
The likely next step is write access or deploy-linked workflows over MCP, such as an agent opening a fix tied to a regression marker, since the current server is explicitly read-only and the launch frames fixing as the goal.
Whatagraph
6.3ANALYTICS
Whatagraph's IQ Agents now watch ad accounts and act on them, not just report.
◆ Current state
Whatagraph builds client reports for agencies and ships most weeks. In late October it launched IQ Agents, which watch marketing accounts on a schedule, report problems to Slack and act through MCP in Meta, Asana and HubSpot. Mid-October brought Excel attachments in report emails, six Ahrefs report types including AI citations, stored blends and ad creatives in tables.
◆ Where it's heading
The product is moving from showing what happened in ad accounts to acting on it. Earlier releases cut the manual work of keeping reports running; IQ Agents take on the monitoring and follow-up work itself. Source coverage keeps widening alongside, from OpenAI Ads to Ahrefs AI citations.
◆ Prediction
Expect IQ Agents to gain more platforms they can act in beyond Meta, Asana and HubSpot. The entries do not show agent pricing.
