Common questions

Is NameStation 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 (1.3.0) reached the registry 8 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?

NameStation plugins

Official NameStation plugin for AI assistants and coding agents.

AI assistants are good at inventing names, but they cannot tell whether a domain is taken, so many of the domains they suggest were registered years ago. This plugin connects your agent to NameStation, which checks every domain live. Your agent can:

Generate brand names with domains you can register today. NameStation's generator writes the names and checks each domain before the agent calls it available.
Check the names your assistant thinks up. When the agent brainstorms names itself, it checks their domains with NameStation and tells you which are available, taken, or listed for sale, with the price.
Screen a shortlist for trademarks against USPTO and EUIPO records before anyone gets attached to a name.
Save picks to a NameStation list and share one link with a cofounder, client, or team.

Requirements

A NameStation account on a paid plan or the free 3-day trial. If your account needs the trial, the sign-in screen offers it and brings you back to finish connecting.
Generating names uses 10 credits per search, the same as on namestation.com. A search for available domains only charges when at least one comes back available.
Checking domains, screening trademarks, and saving lists use no credits. Domain checks have a daily allowance per connection.
When you approve an app, you choose the NameStation organization it bills. You can add a monthly credit cap later in Connected apps.

Domain checks

Most extensions can be checked, from .com, .io, and .ai to country codes. The full list is at namestation.com/explore/extensions.
One check covers up to 100 domains on .com, .net, .org, .info, .biz, and .us, and up to 50 on any other extension. The agent checks the rest in another call.
A domain is only reported available after a live check. One that could not be checked comes back as unchecked, never as available.

Install

App	Install
Claude Code	`claude plugin marketplace add namestation/plugins`, then `claude plugin install namestation@namestation`
Codex	`codex plugin marketplace add namestation/plugins`, then open `/plugins` and install NameStation
GitHub Copilot CLI	`copilot plugin install namestation/plugins`
VS Code	Run Chat: Install Plugin From Source and enter `https://github.com/namestation/plugins`
Grok Build	`grok plugin install namestation/plugins --trust`
Gemini CLI	`gemini extensions install https://github.com/namestation/plugins`
Cursor	Add to Cursor
Claude.ai and Claude Desktop	Download namestation-plugin.zip and upload it under Customize > Plugins
Any agent with skills	`npx skills add https://www.namestation.com` (the skill only; add the server separately)

The plugin adds the remote NameStation MCP server at https://api.namestation.com/mcp, so there is nothing to run locally. The first time a tool runs, you sign in to NameStation and approve the connection.

Setup guides for ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, Slack, Windsurf, Antigravity, and the REST API are at namestation.com/integrations.

What to ask

"Find 10 one-word .com names for a cozy coffee shop in Portland."
"Is brightnest.com taken? Check .io and .co too."
"More like Brightnest, but shorter. Skip anything you already showed me."
"Screen Lumora, Brightnest, and Kindling for trademark conflicts."
"Save my three favorites to a list I can send to my cofounder."

The naming skill guides the agent through the session: it gathers a short brief, picks the right tool, skips names it already showed, and checks the domain of any name it came up with itself before suggesting it. It only calls a domain available when NameStation returned it as available.

Network and credentials

The only network endpoint is the NameStation MCP server at https://api.namestation.com/mcp. Sign-in uses OAuth 2.1 with PKCE through https://www.namestation.com/oauth/authorize.
The plugin asks for no API keys, reads no local files or environment variables, and has no hooks, scripts, or install steps. It is JSON configuration and one Markdown skill.
