Example proposal: cookieless analytics with native MCP integration for AI agents

Proposal

A solutions/ example showing how to integrate cookieless web analytics into a Next.js app, with native MCP so coding agents (Cursor, Claude, Codex, Windsurf) can install + query analytics in one prompt. Would slot in next to script-component-strategies and script-component-ad, which cover related <Script> patterns.

The framework already has framework-boilerplates/xmcp showing how to build an MCP server. This proposal is the complementary case: how to consume an MCP-aware analytics service from a Next.js app, end to end.

What the example would demonstrate

1. Cookieless tracker installation — one <Script> in app/layout.tsx, gated on NEXT_PUBLIC_GIZMO_KEY. No cookie banner needed under CNIL/EDPB. afterInteractive strategy so the tracker doesn't compete with LCP.
2. MCP server integration — the AI coding agent connects via the hosted MCP endpoint, OAuth onboarding via dynamic client registration (RFC 7591), and can run setup operations (setup_analytics_for_site, verify_install), workflow operations (summarize_all_sites, explain_traffic_change), and query primitives (filterable breakdowns, time series).
3. Custom event tracking via Vercel functions — a small API route showing how to fire server-side events alongside the client tracker.

Why this is useful here

• Vercel's audience increasingly uses AI coding agents — this is the only end-to-end example showing the "talk to your analytics from your editor" workflow.
• Cookieless analytics is the de-facto choice for any EU-facing Next.js site that doesn't want a consent banner. There's no example covering that pattern today.
• Builds naturally on script-component-strategies (script loading), which is the closest existing example.

Why I'm raising it as an issue first

I'd build this against Gizmo Analytics since that's the MCP-first analytics service I'm familiar with (free tier, MIT-licensed MCP server, hosted endpoint with full OAuth, official MCP Registry listed). But I don't want to assume a brand-specific example is what you want — wanted to check first.

Three paths I can take, ordered by preference:

1. Brand-agnostic — solutions/cookieless-analytics-mcp using Gizmo as the concrete provider, with the README explicitly noting it's swappable for any MCP-aware analytics provider that follows the same <Script> + gizmoanalytics.io/mcp-style remote endpoint pattern.
2. Branded — solutions/gizmo-analytics similar to how solutions/platforms-slate-supabase is brand-specific.
3. Built into an existing example — fold the integration into one of the existing solutions/ examples (e.g., a blog template) as an opt-in analytics layer.

Happy to build whichever fits your conventions, or skip if it's not a fit. Just looking for a thumbs-up + direction before I spend the time.

First read the related solutions/script-component-strategies and solutions/script-component-ad examples, plus framework-boilerplates/xmcp. Confirm whether the example should be brand-agnostic, branded, or added to an existing solution before starting. Done means an agreed example demonstrates the app/layout.tsx tracker, MCP setup and queries, and a Vercel function for custom events.
