What is the DNSimple MCP Server?

Connect your DNSimple account to any AI agent to automate your domain infrastructure and DNS management through natural language.

What you can do

  • Domain Management — List all domains in your account, create new ones, or retrieve detailed metadata for existing domains.
  • DNSSEC Control — Enable, disable, or check the status of DNSSEC for any domain to ensure cryptographic security.
  • DS Records — Manage Delegation Signer (DS) records with tools to list, create, retrieve, and delete them for advanced DNS configurations.
  • Email Forwarding — List, create, and inspect email forwarding rules to manage your communication flow without leaving your agent.
  • Account Identity — Quickly identify the authenticated entity and list all accessible accounts and their IDs.

How it works

  1. Subscribe to this server
  2. Enter your DNSimple API Token
  3. Start managing your domains from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client

Your AI acts as a specialized DevOps assistant, handling complex DNS operations with precision and speed.

Who is this for?

  • DevOps Engineers — automate domain provisioning and DNSSEC configurations directly from the terminal or chat.
  • Web Developers — check domain statuses and manage email forwards without switching to the DNSimple dashboard.
  • IT Administrators — audit multiple accounts and list domains across different organizational units efficiently.

Why Cursor?

Cursor's Agent mode turns DNSimple into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from DNSimple and it fetches, processes, and writes. all in a single agentic loop. 77 tools appear alongside file editing and terminal access, creating a unified development environment grounded in real-time information.

  • Agent mode turns Cursor into an autonomous coding assistant that can read files, run commands, and call MCP tools without switching context

  • Cursor's Composer feature can generate entire files using real-time data fetched through MCP. no copy-pasting from external dashboards

  • MCP tools appear alongside built-in tools like file reading and terminal access, creating a unified agentic environment

  • VS Code extension compatibility means your existing workflow, keybindings, and extensions all work alongside MCP tools

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01

How can I check if DNSSEC is enabled for a specific domain?

You can use the get_dnssec tool by providing the Account ID and the Domain name. The agent will return the current DNSSEC status and details.

02

Can I list all domains across all my DNSimple accounts?

First, use list_accounts to see all available Account IDs. Then, use list_domains with each specific Account ID to retrieve the domains associated with that account.

03

Is it possible to manage email forwarding rules through this agent?

Yes! You can use list_email_forwards to see existing rules or create_email_forward to set up a new one for a specific domain.

04

What is Agent mode and why does it matter for MCP?

Agent mode is Cursor's autonomous execution mode where the AI can perform multi-step tasks: reading files, editing code, running terminal commands, and calling MCP tools. Without Agent mode, Cursor operates in a simpler ask-and-answer mode that doesn't support tool calling. Always ensure you're in Agent mode when working with MCP servers.

05

Where does Cursor store MCP configuration?

Cursor looks for MCP server configurations in a mcp.json file. You can configure servers at the project level (.cursor/mcp.json in your project root) or globally (~/.cursor/mcp.json). Project-level configs take precedence.

06

Can Cursor use MCP tools in inline edits?

No. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode through the chat panel. Inline completions and Tab suggestions do not trigger MCP tool calls. This is by design. tool calls require user visibility and approval.

07

How do I verify MCP tools are loaded?

Open Settings → Features → MCP and look for your server name. A green indicator means the server is connected. You can also check Agent mode's available tools by clicking the tools dropdown in the chat panel.

08

Tools not appearing in Cursor

Ensure you are in Agent mode (not Ask mode). MCP tools only work in Agent mode.

09

Server shows as disconnected

Check Settings → Features → MCP and verify the server status. Try clicking the refresh button.
