@hasna/domains

Domain portfolio, registrar, marketplace, and DNS management for AI agents — CLI + MCP server with SQLite. Core registrar/DNS commands load by default; heavier integrations are optional command groups.

Features

  • Domain portfolio management — track registrar, expiry, SSL, nameservers, pricing, lifecycle status, and notes

  • Registrar sync and purchase flows — direct Route 53 and Namecheap registration plus GoDaddy and Brandsight provider surfaces through a shared provider registry

  • Nameserver delegation — Route 53 and Namecheap adapters can update registrar nameservers when the provider API supports it

  • DNS provider management — create or reuse Cloudflare or Route 53 zones and manage DNS records through the DNS provider layer

  • DNS record CRUD — A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT, NS, SRV records

  • DNS desired state — plan/diff/apply provider DNS records from JSON with explicit delete opt-in and post-apply verification

  • Sedo marketplace tools — optional search, portfolio/listing management, blacklist checks, and recorded Sedo purchases

  • AWS diagnostics — sync Route 53 registered domains and hosted zones without printing secret values

  • Credential diagnostics — redacted checks for Route 53, Cloudflare, Namecheap, GoDaddy, Brandsight, and Sedo

  • Expiry alerts — set alerts for domain expiry and SSL certificate expiry

  • WHOIS lookup — query and store registrar/expiry info from WHOIS

  • SSL certificate check — verify SSL issuer and expiry

  • DNS propagation check — query Google, Cloudflare, Quad9, OpenDNS

  • Zone file export/import — BIND-format zone files

  • Subdomain discovery — via crt.sh certificate transparency logs

  • DNS validation — detect CNAME conflicts, missing MX, and more

  • Portfolio export — CSV or JSON with all domain data

  • Brand monitoring — optional typosquat/threat detection via Brandsight API

  • MCP server — Model Context Protocol support for AI agents

  • MCP safe mode — expose read-only tools only with DOMAINS_MCP_SAFE_MODE=1

  • Interactive TUI — optional portfolio browser in the terminal with domains interactive

Installation

npm install -g @hasna/domains

Data is stored in the local domains data directory ($XDG_DATA_HOME/open-domains or ~/.local/share/open-domains for new installs; existing legacy installs continue using their current directory). Override with DOMAINS_DB_PATH, DOMAINS_DIR, or the legacy HASNA_DOMAINS_DB_PATH / HASNA_DOMAINS_DIR names.

Optional Command Groups

The default CLI keeps core portfolio, registrar, DNS, provider, Route 53, doctor, MCP, and server commands loaded. Optional groups are enabled per invocation:

domains extras
DOMAINS_COMMAND_GROUPS=marketplace,storage domains --help
DOMAINS_ENABLE_EXTRAS=1 domains --help

Available groups: brandsight, events, history, interactive, marketplace, outreach, owner, provision, research, storage, wallet.

Compact Output For Agents

List, search, status, history, discovery, and portfolio commands are compact by default. Human output shows essential fields, caps the first page to 20 rows unless a command already has a smaller explicit limit, truncates long notes/record values, and prints a hint for the next detail path.

Use these flags to disclose more when needed:

domains domain list --limit 50 --offset 50
domains domain list --all
domains domain list --verbose
domains domain get example.com
domains domain list --json

--verbose adds human-readable detail columns such as registrar, notes, owner contact fields, or provider metadata. get, info, and other detail commands show one record at a time. --json remains the machine-readable detail path and preserves full records for existing automation unless a command already documents an explicit API/provider limit.

MCP list-style tools follow the same gradual disclosure model. Defaults return compact JSON with count, total, limit, offset, has_more, next_offset, compact, and hint. Pass limit/offset for paging, all: true for all returned matches, or verbose: true for full records:

{ "name": "list_domains", "arguments": { "limit": 50, "offset": 50 } }
{ "name": "list_domains", "arguments": { "verbose": true, "limit": 5 } }
{ "name": "get_domain", "arguments": { "id": "example.com" } }

MCP provider sync tools return count/error summaries by default; pass verbose: true only when an agent needs provider-specific arrays or full sync diagnostics.

Prefer the domains CLI over raw registrar CLIs for Route 53 availability, registration status, local portfolio updates, and DNS delegation. The CLI applies configured defaults, records outcomes in the local portfolio DB, and keeps behavior consistent across providers.

Desired DNS state files are JSON:

{
  "domain": "example.com",
  "records": [
    { "type": "A", "name": "@", "value": "192.0.2.10", "ttl": 300 },
    { "type": "MX", "name": "@", "value": "mail.example.com", "ttl": 300, "priority": 10 },
    { "type": "TXT", "name": "@", "value": "v=spf1 -all", "ttl": 300 }
  ]
}

dns apply refuses to run without --yes. If the plan includes deletes, it also requires --allow-delete, then refuses before writing unless the provider path can guarantee delete convergence without partial mutation. Non-delete applies re-read provider records after writing and fail if the live zone still differs from the desired file.

AWS Domain Discovery

# Sync registered domains and hosted zones from specific AWS profiles
AWS_PROFILE=production-domains domains sync --provider route53
AWS_PROFILE=shared-dns domains sync --provider route53

# Check all configured providers and redacted credential status
domains providers --json
domains doctor --json

Route 53 sync imports registered domains when the selected AWS account permits route53domains:ListDomains, and hosted zones when the account permits Route 53 hosted-zone reads. Domain-looking names from unrelated systems such as SSM parameters or Secrets Manager should only be imported after review because they do not prove registrar ownership.

Storage Sync

Set one of these environment variables to sync with a remote PostgreSQL storage database:

export DOMAINS_DATABASE_URL="postgres://..."

DOMAINS_COMMAND_GROUPS=storage domains storage status
DOMAINS_COMMAND_GROUPS=storage domains storage push
DOMAINS_COMMAND_GROUPS=storage domains storage pull

MCP Server

domains-mcp

MCP list/search tools are compact by default for agent context safety; use limit, offset, all, and verbose arguments, or one-record detail tools such as get_domain, when more detail is needed.

Add to your Claude/agent config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "domains": {
      "command": "domains-mcp"
    }
  }
}

HTTP mode

Long-lived Streamable HTTP transport for shared agent sessions (binds 127.0.0.1 only):

domains-mcp --http              # default port 8814
domains-mcp --http --port 8814
MCP_HTTP=1 MCP_HTTP_PORT=8814 domains-mcp
  • GET /health returns {"status":"ok","name":"domains"}

  • POST /mcp is the Streamable HTTP MCP endpoint

Stdio remains the default transport for gradual rollout.

For read-only agent sessions:

DOMAINS_MCP_SAFE_MODE=1 domains-mcp
DOMAINS_MCP_SAFE_MODE=1 domains-mcp --http

Safe mode registers only read-only/list/check/export tools. Mutating tools such as domain creation, DNS writes, provider sync, Route 53 registration, and storage push/pull are withheld.
