dynadot-mcp

MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for the Dynadot domain registrar API. Manage domains, DNS records, contacts, transfers, and more — all from your AI assistant.

When to Use

Tell your AI assistant things like:

• "Search for available domains" — bulk-check up to 100 domain names at once with pricing
• "Register a new domain" — register or bulk-register domains
• "Update DNS records for my domain" — set A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT, SRV records
• "Transfer a domain to Dynadot" — initiate inbound transfers with auth codes
• "Set up email forwarding" — configure email forwarding or MX records
• "Renew my domain" — renew before expiration
• "Lock/unlock domain for transfer" — manage transfer lock status
• "Check domain WHOIS info" — view and manage WHOIS privacy settings

AI Agent Integration: See llms.txt for a machine-readable summary, or copy templates/CLAUDE.md / templates/AGENTS.md into your project for automatic MCP discovery.
