MCPDomain

Buy and manage internet domains from inside any AI chat.

MCPDomain is the first domain registrar exposed as a Model Context Protocol server. Ask Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor to find a domain — they can check availability, register it, set up free email forwarding, configure DNS, and show you which AI bots are crawling it, all without leaving the chat.

Hosted endpoint: https://mcpdomain.ai/mcp — plug into any remote-MCP-capable client, no install needed. Local stdio: npm install -g mcpdomain — see below.

What it looks like

You:  Find me a .com for a sourdough bakery in Brooklyn.

Claude:  sweetcrumbs.com is taken, but these are available:
         - brooklynsourdough.com  — $14.99
         - crumbsbrooklyn.com     — $14.99
         - doughbk.com            — $14.99
         Want me to register one?

You:  Yes, brooklynsourdough.com, and forward hello@ to my gmail.

Claude:  Here's your checkout link: https://mcpdomain.ai/c/ord_abc123
         Once you pay, I'll set up email forwarding automatically.

That's the entire flow. No registrar UI, no DNS dashboard, no MX-record copy-paste.

Features

7 MCP tools covering the full domain lifecycle (see below).
Free email forwarding — hello@yourdomain.com → your existing inbox. No mail server. No MX setup.
Free managed DNS — the agent already knows the records for Vercel, Netlify, GitHub Pages, Cloudflare Pages. Ask and it's done.
AI bot intelligence — 30-day report of which AI crawlers (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, Google-Extended, Bytespider, etc.) hit your domain. No other registrar offers this.
Backed by a real registrar — OpenSRS / Tucows, ICANN-accredited. Your domain is in your name, portable, renewable, transferable.

Tools

Tool	What it does
`check_domain_availability`	Is this exact name free? What's it cost?
`suggest_available_domains`	Brandable name ideas, real-time verified.
`register_new_domain`	Start a registration, returns a Stripe checkout URL.
`configure_domain_email`	Catch-all or per-alias email forwarding.
`configure_domain_dns`	A / CNAME / MX / TXT, with presets for common hosts.
`get_my_domain_details`	Status, expiry, DNS, email forwards, AI-bot stats.
`transfer_existing_domain`	Move a domain in from another registrar.

Tool prompts (the text the LLM actually reads) live in mcp-server/src/tool-descriptions.ts.

Install

Hosted (easiest)

Point any remote-MCP-capable client at:

https://mcpdomain.ai/mcp

No install. No keys.

Local stdio

npm install -g mcpdomain

Claude Desktop — edit your claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcpdomain": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcpdomain"]
    }
  }
}

Cursor — Settings → MCP → Add:

{
  "mcpdomain": {
    "command": "npx",
    "args": ["-y", "mcpdomain"]
  }
}

OpenClaw — one line, via McPorter:

npm install -g mcporter
mcporter install mcpdomain --target openclaw

That writes the server to ~/.openclaw/workspace/config/mcporter.json automatically. If you prefer editing it manually, drop the same mcpServers block from the Claude Desktop snippet above into that file.

More client recipes are in the npm README.

Architecture

  Claude / ChatGPT / Cursor
            │  MCP
            ▼
   mcpdomain (stdio package)
            │  HTTPS
            ▼
   mcpdomain.ai  (Cloudflare Worker + D1)
            │  XML API
            ▼
   OpenSRS / Tucows registrar

Most of the logic — orders, Stripe checkout, DNS, email forwarding, bot-intel logging — lives in the Cloudflare Worker, not in the local package. That keeps the npm install tiny and the client free of API keys.

Source layout:

mcp-server/     ← the npm package (this is `mcpdomain` on npm)
  src/          ← TypeScript source
  Dockerfile    ← container build for HTTP transport
worker/         ← Cloudflare Worker (server-side)
  src/          ← endpoints, admin dashboard, OpenSRS adapter
  migrations/   ← D1 schema

Development

git clone https://github.com/danboabes/mcpdomain.git
cd mcpdomain/mcp-server
npm install
npm run dev        # runs the MCP server over stdio via tsx

To run the HTTP transport locally:

npm run dev:http

The MCP Inspector from Anthropic is the fastest way to poke at tools while iterating.

Pricing

Prices the agent quotes are what you pay at checkout — wholesale + a small flat margin, no "first year free" bait, no auto-renew price hikes. Current TLD prices are on mcpdomain.ai.

Privacy

Whois privacy is on by default wherever the TLD supports it. The bot-intel feature logs AI crawler traffic only, never visitor PII. Payments go through Stripe — we never see card details.
