Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Domain intelligence for DNS, WHOIS/RDAP, TLS, reputation, valuation, and brand protection.

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.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on the maker’s server: what you ask it goes through their server.
  • The registry lists no key to fill in.

    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "domscan": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://domscan.net/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

ChatGPT connects only to servers on the internet:

  1. Open ChatGPT on the web → Settings → Connectors (Apps)
  2. Press Create or Add (some plans need Developer mode under Advanced first)
  3. Paste the address below, give it a name and save
  4. If it asks you to sign in, sign in with the maker
SettingsConnectors1+ Create2https://…3

Menu names can differ slightly by plan and over time.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

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

Common questions

Is DomScan safe?

It passed 1 of 1 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 (1.0.0) reached the registry 4 months 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?

DomScan MCP Server

Domain intelligence for AI agents. Connect DomScan to Claude, Cursor, VS Code and any Model Context Protocol client to run DNS, WHOIS/RDAP, SSL/TLS, subdomain, availability, valuation, email-security and brand-protection lookups straight from your assistant.

DomScan is a domain intelligence platform that exposes its data over one REST API and a hosted MCP server. This repository documents the MCP server: how to connect it, what tools it exposes, and how to use it in agent pipelines.

  • Website: https://domscan.net
  • MCP endpoint: https://domscan.net/mcp (Streamable HTTP)
  • Transport: Streamable HTTP (remote)
  • Auth: OAuth discovery (recommended) or a DomScan API key

Quick start

OAuth-aware clients

Add https://domscan.net/mcp as a remote MCP server. DomScan publishes OAuth protected-resource and authorization-server metadata, so compatible clients can discover and complete authentication without a manually configured API key.

{

"mcpServers": { "domscan": { "url": "https://domscan.net/mcp" } } }

Claude Desktop / Claude Code with an API key

Add to your MCP config (claude_desktop_config.json or .mcp.json):

{

"mcpServers": { "domscan": { "command": "npx", "args": [ "-y", "mcp-remote", "https://domscan.net/mcp", "--header", "Authorization: Bearer ${DOMSCAN_API_KEY}" ], "env": { "DOMSCAN_API_KEY": "your-api-key" } } } }

Native remote URL with an API key
{

"mcpServers": { "domscan": { "url": "https://domscan.net/mcp", "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer your-api-key" } } } }

Get an API key from the DomScan dashboard. OAuth is preferred when the client supports it. API keys remain available for clients that need explicit header authentication.

Local MCP wrapper

This repository includes a runnable stdio wrapper for clients that cannot connect directly to the hosted Streamable HTTP endpoint. It forwards requests to https://domscan.net/mcp using DOMSCAN_API_KEY.

npm install

DOMSCAN_API_KEY=your-api-key npm start

If no API key is configured, the wrapper still starts and exposes only the read-only domscan_mcp_status tool. This lets MCP registries inspect and validate the server without granting access to domain-intelligence operations.

Docker
docker build -t domscan-mcp .

docker run --rm -i -e DOMSCAN_API_KEY=your-api-key domscan-mcp

The local wrapper uses API-key authentication. Clients that support remote Streamable HTTP and OAuth should continue connecting directly to https://domscan.net/mcp; OAuth remains the recommended option for those clients.

What it can do

The server exposes domain-intelligence tools across these areas:

  • DNS: record lookups (A, AAAA, MX, TXT, NS, CNAME, CAA), full record dumps, propagation checks, DNS security.
  • WHOIS / RDAP: registration data, WHOIS history, reverse WHOIS, RDAP.
  • SSL/TLS: certificate audit, chain inspection, grade, expiry checks, deep scan, certificate search.
  • Subdomains: subdomain enumeration and discovery.
  • Availability and valuation: domain availability (single and bulk), appraisal, name suggestions.
  • Email security: SPF, DKIM, DMARC validation and DNSSEC posture.
  • Brand protection: typosquatting detection, brand monitors and scans.
  • Infrastructure: IP lookup, hosting detection, ASN, technology/stack detection, MAC vendor lookup.

See the DomScan API documentation and MCP setup guide.

Why MCP

MCP lets an AI assistant call DomScan directly: ask "is acme.io available, and who owns the look-alikes?" and the agent runs availability, WHOIS and typosquatting tools and answers in one turn. The same server powers automated workflows (monitoring, due diligence, brand protection) without custom integration code.
