isitdns MCP server

isitdns is a remote MCP server that gives an AI agent 8 tools, among them check_domain, dig, dns_events. It answers at https://isitdns.net/mcp over streamable HTTP, and it listed its tools to an anonymous client, so no sign-in was needed for that. Our probes reached it 6 of 6 times since 12 September 2026; the last check, on 24 October 2026, succeeded.

Live DNS: dig public resolvers, audit or sweep a domain, walk a delegation, read the resolver board.

Description as the publisher wrote it.

The 8 tools isitdns offers

ToolWhat it does
check_domainThe eleven-check DNS audit for a domain: parent and child nameservers agree, no open recursion, DNSSEC chain, TTL sanity, mail posture, glue at the parent, a DS that matches a live DNSKEY, and whether a truncated UDP answer can be had over
Inputs: name
digAsk a public DNS resolver, or any public address, for a record, live, from the isitdns seat. Returns the answer, the flags, the rcode, Extended DNS Errors and the latency in the shape dig prints, plus the JSON.
Inputs: name, type, resolver, transport, dnssec, cd
dns_eventsDays when several resolvers were unhealthy at once, as episodes: when each began, how long it ran, how many resolvers were affected at the peak, and which. This is the tool for "was there a DNS outage recently".
ksk_boardThe RFC 8509 root key sentinel across the public resolvers: which resolvers trust which root KSK, and the root DNSKEY set as read now.
resolver_historyThe incident record for the public resolvers: start time, duration and severity of each. Notable incidents by default; all=true includes short degradations. Windows where several operators failed at once are excluded as our own seat's path,
Inputs: resolver, all
resolver_statusThe live board: is public DNS OK right now? Every public resolver isitdns watches, its latest reading (status, latency, DNSSEC), read every 3 minutes over DoT, with the time it was read. Give a resolver to get one card.
Inputs: resolver
top_domainsThe DNS health of the top 100 domains as of the last DAILY snapshot: rcode, addresses, DNSSEC and rank movement for each. Those come from one probe per day at 11:11:11 UTC and do not move intraday. The nameservers and the points are read se
Inputs: domain
traceWalk the delegation from the root servers down to the authoritative server for a name, like dig +trace, and say in plain steps whether the delegation is healthy.
Inputs: name, type
