Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Business Name Desk in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/com.businessnamedesk%2Fname-check/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows

check_business_name

Check a business name

Check whether a business name looks available in a US state: searches the state's business register (live in Alaska, Colorado, Connecticut, District of Columbia, Florida, Iowa, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania and Texas; other states return the official search link), whether the .com is registered, and words that often need a regulator's approval. Returns the closest registered names, the official state search URL and a link to the full result.
