- IP Geolocation — Instantly identify the country, city, ISP, and coordinates of any IP address.
- Email Verification — Validate email syntax, check MX records, and detect disposable addresses to ensure data quality.
- Domain Availability — Perform lightweight checks to see if a domain name is available for registration.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your WhoisXML API Key
- Start querying domain and network data from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- Security Researchers — Quickly investigate suspicious domains or IP addresses during incident response.
- Developers — Integrate domain availability and email validation checks into your workflow without leaving the editor.
- Marketers & Sales — Verify lead lists and research company domain ownership for better outreach.

Why Claude Code?
Claude Code registers WhoisXML as an MCP server in a single terminal command. Once connected, Claude Code discovers all 4 tools at runtime and can call them headlessly. ideal for CI/CD pipelines, cron jobs, and automated workflows where WhoisXML data drives decisions without human intervention.
- —
Single-command setup:
claude mcp addregisters the server instantly. no config files to edit or applications to restart - —
Terminal-native workflow means MCP tools integrate seamlessly into shell scripts, CI/CD pipelines, and automated DevOps tasks
- —
Claude Code runs headlessly, enabling unattended batch processing using WhoisXML tools in cron jobs or deployment scripts
- —
Built by the same team that created the MCP protocol, ensuring first-class compatibility and the fastest adoption of new protocol features

Frequently asked questions
Can I check if a domain is available for registration?
Yes! Use the check_domain_availability tool. It provides a lightweight check to see if a specific domain name is currently available.
How do I find the physical location of an IP address?
Simply use the get_ip_geolocation tool with the target IP. The agent will return the country, city, latitude, longitude, and ISP information.
Can this tool detect disposable or fake email addresses?
Yes. The verify_email tool checks email syntax, MX records, and SMTP connections, and specifically flags disposable email providers.
How do I add an MCP server to Claude Code?
Run claude mcp add <name> --transport http "<url>" in your terminal. Claude Code registers the server and discovers all tools immediately.
Can Claude Code run MCP tools in headless mode?
Yes. Claude Code supports non-interactive execution, making it ideal for scripts, cron jobs, and CI/CD pipelines that need MCP tool access.
How do I list all connected MCP servers?
Run claude mcp in your terminal to see all registered servers and their status, or type /mcp inside an active Claude Code session.
