About DotMoose MCP server
DotMoose provides remote MCP endpoints designed for hosting management, domain discovery, and technical diagnostics. Because the production implementation is operated by DotMoose, users do not need to install or run a local server. Instead, developers connect to remote URLs via clients like Claude, Cursor, or VS Code. The service offers three distinct connection paths: a public discovery endpoint for product quotes and domain availability, a tools endpoint for free network diagnostics, and an authenticated account endpoint for existing customers.
The tools endpoint provides forty read-only diagnostic functions, including DNSSEC checks, TLS certificate inspections, and Looking Glass probes from Canada. For customers using the OAuth 2.1 protected account endpoint, the server enables managed application deployment and service support. This deployment process supports immutable OCI image digests or GitHub HTTPS repositories. The system uses a safe action model that separates planning from execution, requiring confirmation for any changes to account state or services.
What you can do with it
- 1Check domain and product availabilityA developer can ask the AI to find available domains and get pricing quotes for hosting products.
- 2Perform network and web diagnosticsAn engineer can use the tools endpoint to verify DNS propagation, TLS configurations, or email security records like SPF and DMARC.
- 3Deploy managed applicationsA user can instruct the client to prepare and launch an application using a specific GitHub repository or OCI image.
- 4Calculate network parametersA developer can request subnet calculations or bandwidth estimates using the built-in calculators.

Official Model Context Protocol endpoints for DotMoose hosting, domains, support, diagnostics, and managed application deployment.
This repository contains public connection metadata and documentation. The production implementation remains operated by DotMoose so customers do not need to install or run a local server.
Endpoints
| Endpoint | Authentication | Intended use |
|---|---|---|
https://mcp.dotmoose.com/public/mcp |
None | Product and domain discovery, quotes, publication planning, and a secure first-party signup handoff |
https://mcp.dotmoose.com/tools/mcp |
None | Public DNS, domain, mail, TLS, HTTP, and website diagnostics, Looking Glass probes from Canada, and network calculators |
https://mcp.dotmoose.com/mcp |
OAuth 2.1 | Existing-customer account, service, support, diagnostics, and confirmation-gated operations |
Health checks:
https://mcp.dotmoose.com/public/healthzhttps://mcp.dotmoose.com/tools/healthzhttps://mcp.dotmoose.com/healthz
The service uses stateless Streamable HTTP with the MCP 2026-07-28 protocol revision and a 2025-11-25 compatibility path for established clients.
Open any endpoint in a normal web browser to see its tool inventory, setup examples, and safety model. These documentation pages do not require authentication. MCP protocol requests to the account endpoint still require OAuth 2.1; strict content negotiation keeps browser HTML and protocol traffic separate.
Quick connection
For product and domain discovery, add this remote server to an MCP client:
{
"mcpServers": {
"dotmoose-public": {
"url": "https://mcp.dotmoose.com/public/mcp"
}
}
}
For the free diagnostic tools, add the Tools endpoint instead:
{
"mcpServers": {
"dotmoose-tools": {
"url": "https://mcp.dotmoose.com/tools/mcp"
}
}
}
Existing DotMoose customers can use the authenticated endpoint. Compatible clients open DotMoose authorization in the browser and request the scopes needed for the selected tool:
{
"mcpServers": {
"dotmoose": {
"url": "https://mcp.dotmoose.com/mcp"
}
}
}
Do not put a DotMoose password, API token, payment detail, MFA code, domain transfer code, or deployment secret in an MCP configuration file or chat prompt.
Client setup
ChatGPT and Codex
The repository includes a portable Agent Plugin manifest. In supported local Codex clients, add this repository as a plugin marketplace source:
codex plugin marketplace add dotmoosehosting/dotmoose-mcp
Restart the desktop app, open the Plugins Directory, select the DotMoose source, and install DotMoose. The install includes the public discovery, public diagnostic, and OAuth-protected account endpoints. Authentication opens only when an account-scoped tool needs it.
For direct testing in ChatGPT Developer Mode, add https://mcp.dotmoose.com/mcp as a custom MCP server.
The root plugin is the all-in-one local install. OpenAI's public review flow accepts one MCP server per plugin, so docs/openai-submission.md documents the separately validated account, discovery, and diagnostics submission bundles.
Cursor
Add either endpoint to your user or project mcp.json. Cursor can also install portable Agent Plugins from a public Git repository, so this repository can be submitted directly to the Cursor Marketplace.
Claude, VS Code, and other MCP clients
Use the remote Streamable HTTP URL in the client's MCP server settings. Choose the public endpoint for anonymous discovery or the account endpoint for OAuth-protected customer operations.
What the tools do
The anonymous endpoint exposes eight intentionally narrow tools:
list_public_productsquote_public_productrecommend_productlist_current_promotionscheck_domain_availabilityquote_domainplan_app_publicationstart_signup
The Tools endpoint exposes 40 read-only tools that need no account:
- 33 diagnostics that run the same public checks as the free tools at dotmoose.com/tools: DNS propagation, delegation, DNSSEC, CNAME chains, RDAP, IP and reverse DNS lookups, TLS certificate and configuration, HTTP chains and status, web timing, website security, security.txt, compression, IPv6, favicon, link audits, page metadata, robots.txt, sitemaps, SPF, DMARC, DKIM, MX, SMTP STARTTLS, MTA-STS, TLS-RPT, BIMI, blacklist checks, and Looking Glass ping, traceroute, and path probes from the DotMoose network in Canada.
- 7 local calculators and builders: subnet calculation, IP range to CIDR conversion, bandwidth calculation, storage growth and backup retention estimates, and SPF and DMARC record builders.
Targets must resolve only to public addresses. The diagnostic service rejects private, loopback, link-local, and reserved destinations. Results are point-in-time observations and each one links to the matching tool page on dotmoose.com.
The account endpoint exposes tools for session and service discovery, support, diagnostics, security assessment, deployment planning, source and image deployment preparation, launch-readiness verification, and other account operations. See docs/tools.md for the supported workflows and safeguards.
Safe action model
DotMoose separates planning from execution:
- Read tools inspect the authenticated account and service state.
- Prepare tools validate the requested change and store a short-lived action intent.
- The client shows the action, consequences, and required confirmation.
- Execute tools accept only the prepared action ID. They cannot replace its target or payload.
- The service rechecks OAuth scopes, service version, capacity, billing state, and provider preconditions before mutation.
Managed App deployment accepts either an immutable OCI image digest or an exact GitHub HTTPS repository and safe build settings. Secrets remain saved references in DotMoose and are never accepted as tool input.
Commercial boundary
The public MCP can create a short-lived selection intent and send the user to clients.dotmoose.com for first-party signup and checkout. It does not collect personal, password, MFA, payment, or credential data.
Managed App purchasing and general availability are controlled separately from the MCP software release. A working MCP deployment path does not by itself promise that a product is available for new purchase.
