MCP server that checks domain availability in real-time during brand naming.

Name your brand. Check the domain. All in one conversation.

Why?

We've all been there:

You:    "Suggest a name for my service"AI:     "How about NexFlow?"You:     Search nexflow.com... already takenYou:    "Another one"AI:     "DataPulse?"You:     Search datapulse.com... also takenYou:    "..."        (repeat 10 times)

Install mcp-domain-radar once, and your AI checks domain availability the moment it thinks of a name. No more switching between browser and terminal.

Quick Start

1. Install

npm install -g mcp-domain-radar

2. Connect to your AI coding tool

claude mcp add domain-radar -- mcp-domain-radar

codex mcp add domain-radar -- npx mcp-domain-radar

{  "mcpServers": {    "domain-radar": {      "command": "npx",      "args": ["mcp-domain-radar"]    }  }}

{  "mcpServers": {    "domain-radar": {      "command": "npx",      "args": ["mcp-domain-radar"]    }  }}

3. Install the brand-naming skill (optional, Claude Code only)

mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills/brand-namingcp node_modules/mcp-domain-radar/.claude/skills/brand-naming/SKILL.md ~/.claude/skills/brand-naming/

Or copy it manually from the GitHub repo.

4. Use it

With the skill installed, type /brand-naming in Claude Code to start a guided naming session.

Or just talk naturally:

"I'm building a task management app for developers. Help me find a brand name with an available domain."

Claude will automatically check domains as it brainstorms.

What You Get

4 Tools — automatically used by Claude during conversations

30+ TLDs — including trending ones

Examples

Check a specific name

You: Check if "nexflow" is available — try .com, .io, .ai, and .dev

AVAILABLE:  + nexflow.dev  + nexflow.ai
TAKEN:  - nexflow.com  - nexflow.io
--- 2 available / 2 taken / 0 unknown ---

Brainstorm from keywords

You: I need a name for an AI code review tool.     Keywords: code, review, pulse, scan.     Find me names with available domains.

Generated 20 name variations from: code, review, pulse, scanChecking .com .io .ai .dev .app .co for each
+ codepulse (compound) — available: .dev, .ai | taken: .com, .io+ scanflow (suffix) — available: .ai, .dev, .app | taken: .com+ getpulse (prefix) — available: .dev, .co | taken: .com, .io, .ai+ revscan (blend) — available: .com, .io, .ai, .dev, .app, .co- codelab (suffix) — all checked TLDs taken
TOP PICKS (have available domains):  revscan → revscan.com, revscan.io, revscan.ai, revscan.dev, revscan.app, revscan.co  codepulse → codepulse.dev, codepulse.ai  scanflow → scanflow.ai, scanflow.dev, scanflow.app

Guided workflow with the brand-naming prompt

The server includes a built-in prompt template that walks you through the full naming process step by step.

How It Works

Your question    │    ▼  Claude brainstorms names    │    ▼  mcp-domain-radar    ├── 1. DNS lookup (fast — if it resolves, it's taken)    └── 2. WHOIS query (definitive — checks registration status)    │    ▼  Only names with available domains are recommended

• No API keys required — uses native DNS and WHOIS protocols
• Rate-limit friendly — batches queries with delays
• Works offline for DNS checks — WHOIS requires network

Development

git clone https://github.com/sonwr/mcp-domain-radar.gitcd mcp-domain-radarnpm installnpm run build

Test locally:

claude mcp add domain-radar -- node ./dist/index.js

Roadmap

• Domain price estimation per registrar
• Expiring / recently dropped domain suggestions
• Registrar API integration (Namecheap, Cloudflare, GoDaddy)
• Internationalized domain name (IDN) support
• More TLDs and WHOIS servers
