About SecurityTrails MCP Server
Connect your SecurityTrails account to any AI agent and empower your OSINT, bug bounty, and threat intelligence workflows with the world's most comprehensive domain and IP database.
AutoGen enables multi-agent conversations where agents negotiate, delegate, and collaboratively use SecurityTrails tools. Connect 10 tools through Vinkius and assign role-based access. a data analyst queries while a reviewer validates, with optional human-in-the-loop approval for sensitive operations.
What you can do
- Attack Surface Mapping — Instantly enumerate all subdomains for any target organization to map their external footprint
- Historical DNS Analysis — Look back in time at DNS records (A, MX, NS, TXT) to find hidden infrastructure, bypassed firewalls, or legacy systems
- Reverse IP Lookups — Find all domains hosted on a specific IP address to identify shared hosting or related corporate assets
- Advanced Threat Hunting — Use the SecurityTrails DSL (Domain Specific Language) to query the entire internet for specific tech stacks or vulnerable infrastructure
- Ownership Intelligence — Access current and historical WHOIS records to track domain ownership changes and unmask hidden threat actors
- Corporate Associations — Discover domains strongly associated with your primary target to expand your investigation scope
The SecurityTrails MCP Server exposes 10 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to AutoGen in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

Why Use AutoGen with the SecurityTrails MCP Server
AutoGen provides unique advantages when paired with SecurityTrails through the Model Context Protocol.
Multi-agent conversations: multiple AutoGen agents discuss, delegate, and collaboratively use SecurityTrails tools to solve complex tasks
Role-based architecture lets you assign SecurityTrails tool access to specific agents. a data analyst queries while a reviewer validates
Human-in-the-loop support: agents can pause for human approval before executing sensitive SecurityTrails tool calls
Code execution sandbox: AutoGen agents can write and run code that processes SecurityTrails tool responses in an isolated environment
SecurityTrails + AutoGen Use Cases
Practical scenarios where AutoGen combined with the SecurityTrails MCP Server delivers measurable value.
Collaborative analysis: one agent queries SecurityTrails while another validates results and a third generates the final report
Automated review pipelines: a researcher agent fetches data from SecurityTrails, a critic agent evaluates quality, and a writer produces the output
Interactive planning: agents negotiate task allocation using SecurityTrails data to make informed decisions about resource distribution
Code generation with live data: an AutoGen coder agent writes scripts that process SecurityTrails responses in a sandboxed execution environment
SecurityTrails MCP Tools for AutoGen (10)
These 10 tools become available when you connect SecurityTrails to AutoGen via MCP:
