GTmetrix for AI agents
GTmetrix tests and monitors website speed, giving detailed performance reports to help teams optimize page load times. Developers wire it into their own apps and internal tools instead of building the underlying capability from scratch. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.
What agents do in GTmetrix.
Run a performance test
Start a new speed test on a page to get an updated performance score after a deploy.
Pull a report's details
Fetch the detailed results of a past test to diagnose what is slowing a page down.
Delete an old report
Delete a stale test report only after confirming it is no longer needed for comparison.
20 GTmetrix actions, graded by risk.
Every GTmetrix action is tagged read, write or destructive, so one policy covers the whole app and new actions inherit the right default.

GTmetrix in three steps.
- 01Your users connect GTmetrixThey add their GTmetrix api key on Arc0 Connect, under your brand. It goes straight into the vault.
- 02You set the rulesReads run, writes like “start Test” can wait for the user, and “delete Page” can be denied outright.
- 03Any agent can actYour agent calls GTmetrix through the Arc0 SDK or MCP, and so can Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor. Every call lands on the audit log.
await arc0.policies.set('gtmetrix', { read: 'allow', write: 'ask', // start_test destructive: 'deny', // delete_page }) # Claude Code: the same connection, one URL $ claude mcp add --transport http arc0 \ https://mcp.arc0.ai/u/u_8f2
How GTmetrix connects.
Users add their GTmetrix api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.
The same GTmetrix connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →
- AUTH
- API key
- CREDENTIALS
- Per-tenant encrypted vault
- MODEL SEES
- Results only, never credentials
- AUDIT LOG
- Every call, on every plan
Use GTmetrix from any agent.
GTmetrix and Arc0, answered.
Can I use GTmetrix with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?
Yes. Connect GTmetrix to Arc0 once, then add your Arc0 MCP URL to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or any other remote-MCP client. Each assistant only gets the GTmetrix actions you allow.
How do users connect GTmetrix?
Users add their GTmetrix api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.
Which GTmetrix actions can my agent take?
20 in total: 15 read, 3 write and 2 destructive, such as “start Test”. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.
Can I stop my agent from deleting things in GTmetrix?
Yes. Actions like “delete Page” are graded destructive. Set destructive actions to deny, or to ask so the user approves each one, and blocked calls still show up on the audit log.
Can my own backend call GTmetrix too?
Yes. The same GTmetrix connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
Plug GTmetrix into your agent.
Your users connect GTmetrix once, under your brand. Your agent gets 20 actions behind your policies, with every call on the record.
