Before you connect
Questions about Porkbun.
The practical details behind the request, access and result.
Can I use the Porkbun MCP to buy new domains?
No, this Connector is for managing domains you already own. You can't use it to complete a purchase or register a brand new name.
Does the Porkbun MCP work with Claude and Cursor?
Yes, it works with any MCP-compatible client like Claude, Cursor, and Windsurf. You just need to connect it via Vinkius.
How do I update my DNS records using the Porkbun MCP?
You just tell your agent what change you want to make. It will use the capabilities to add, edit, or delete records for you automatically.
Can I check domain prices with the Porkbun MCP?
Yes, you can ask your agent for the current pricing of various TLDs. It will pull the latest data directly from Porkbun for you.
Will the Porkbun MCP help me find my SSL certificates?
Yes, it can pull the SSL certificate bundle for your domains. This is great for quickly getting the info you need for your web server.
Is the Porkbun MCP safe for my domain account?
It uses your official Porkbun API keys to perform actions. You only provide these keys to your AI client to give it permission to manage your records.
Can I see all DNS records for a domain at once?
Yes! Use the retrieve_dns_records capability with your domain name. It will return a complete list of all active records including A, CNAME, MX, and TXT entries.
Is it possible to check if a domain is available for purchase?
Absolutely. Use the check_domain_availability capability to query any domain name. The agent will tell you if it's available for registration.
Can I delete a DNS record if I made a mistake?
Yes. Use the delete_dns_record capability by providing the domain and the specific record ID. This will permanently remove the record from Porkbun's nameservers.
