Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

TLS cert verdict (OK/WARN/CRITICAL/UNKNOWN) from the served chain: expiry, revocation, alerts

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

What it can do

Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 8, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.

  • check_certificate

    Check one domain's TLS certificate and return a verdict: status OK | WARN | CRITICAL | UNKNOWN, judged from the certificate chain the server actually serves. Measured from Korean point A (full chain and CRL revocation) plus Korean point B and an overseas point on the Globalping p

  • check_expiry

    Verdict for up to 5 domains at once: status OK | WARN | CRITICAL | UNKNOWN per domain combining the served certificate (verification, days left, null when the server cannot be measured) and domain registration expiry (RDAP), plus Korean alert lines. Use this for inventories, CI g

  • check_security

    Security posture check of a web server (no port scanning): TLS protocol support (legacy 1.0/1.1 detection via a Korean network probe), security headers (HSTS/CSP/X-Content-Type-Options/anti-clickjacking/Referrer-Policy), HTTP→HTTPS redirect, and certificate key/signature strength

  • check_dns

    DNS and hosting facts for a domain: nameservers with DNS provider, A/AAAA with IP owner (ASN), CNAME, MX, CAA (which CAs may issue), SPF/DMARC, DNSSEC, registrar and domain expiry (RDAP).

  • check_dns_propagation

    Compare answers for one DNS record across resolvers: the authoritative nameservers, Korean ISPs (KT, SK Broadband, LG U+) and public resolvers (Cloudflare, Google, Quad9, OpenDNS), measured from a Korean network. Use it to confirm a TXT/CNAME for certificate domain validation (e.

  • explain_tls_error

    Explain a TLS/SSL certificate error message from a browser, curl/OpenSSL, Java, Python, Node.js, Go or .NET: likely causes, fixes, and links to step-by-step guides (Korean). Works offline from a curated knowledge base.

  • watch_expiry

    Subscribe an email address to free daily expiry monitoring of up to 5 domains (certificate, domain registration and security grade) with email alerts, plus an optional Slack/Discord/Telegram/webhook channel. Also alerts when Certificate Transparency logs show a new certificate fo

Common questions

Is certdesk safe?

It passed 2 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.9.0) reached the registry 28 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?
