WhoisXML API MCP Server

The official WhoisXML API MCP server: 32 first-party tools for WHOIS, DNS, IP geolocation, threat intelligence, typosquatting, email verification, and native bulk lookups — in Claude, Cursor, VS Code, LobeChat, or any MCP client.

This repository is the public listing home for the server. Distribution is via the hosted endpoint, npm, and Docker Hub; the implementation source is maintained privately by Whois API, Inc.

Hosted endpoint (no install)

Connect any remote-capable MCP client to the hosted server — authentication is via OAuth with your WhoisXML API key:

https://mcp-hosted.whoisxmlapi.com/mcp
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "whoisxmlapi": {
      "url": "https://mcp-hosted.whoisxmlapi.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
