Domain MCP Server

Provides AI-powered domain management via 10 MCP tools for Dynadot domains, DNS, transfers, and contacts.

Installation

Add the following to your MCP client configuration file.

Configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "joachimbrindeau-domain-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "domain-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "DYNADOT_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here",
        "DYNADOT_SANDBOX": "true"
      }
    }
  }
}

You can manage Dynadot domains, DNS, contacts, and transfers through natural conversation with an MCP server. By wiring an AI assistant to Domain MCP, you perform showroom-grade domain operations—like listing, registering, and configuring DNS—without writing API calls or navigating a control panel.

How to use

Interact with your AI assistant to perform domain tasks using natural language. The Domain MCP server exposes 10 tools that cover core domain actions, DNS management, transfers, contacts, folders, and account-level operations. You can ask the assistant to list domains, search for availability, register domains, configure DNS records, manage WHOIS contacts, transfer domains, and more. The assistant remembers your account structure and can chain steps, so you can perform multiple related actions in a single conversational flow.
