Sherlock Domains

Sherlock Domains is an MCP server that provides tools to buy and manage web domains alongside a built-in note storage workflow. Designed for developers, domain investors, and website administrators using Model Context Protocol-compatible environments, the server interfaces with Sherlock domain management services. It enables language model clients to inspect and handle domain registrations directly through standardized prompt and tool interfaces. The server also exposes a resource system utilizing a custom note URI scheme, allowing agents to store plain-text notes, notify connected clients of state changes, and summarize stored information. By connecting domain operations and structured record-keeping into MCP clients like Claude Desktop, the server allows automated agents to assist with domain purchasing decisions, track registration data, and maintain technical documentation in an integrated environment without switching between external registrar dashboards and notes apps.
