Frequently asked questions

What is the AiVikings MCP endpoint?

The MCP server is at https://mcp.aivikings.ai/mcp. Point any MCP-compatible client at that endpoint. The client discovers OAuth metadata, registers dynamically, obtains a token, and asks you to authorize access before tool calls. Capability discovery is available before authorization.

What MCP tools does AiVikings expose?

AiVikings.ai exposes MCP tools across account identity, availability and pricing, registration lifecycle, transfers and locks, nameservers and DNS, and contacts and registrant workflows. The tools are self-describing with typed parameters, so agents can chain them, for example check availability, get pricing, register a domain, set nameservers, and manage DNS records. See the AiVikings MCP tools reference for parameters, return values, examples, and risk notes.

How do I authenticate with the AiVikings API?

The REST API uses Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY with an API key. The MCP server uses OAuth 2.1 with Dynamic Client Registration through https://api.aivikings.ai. Read the supported scopes from the live OAuth metadata and use the authorization flow supported by your client. Customer bearer tokens are also supported for the documented integration path.

What is the REST API base URL?

https://api.aivikings.ai/v1. Core endpoints include POST /domains/check for availability, POST /domains to register, GET /domains/{domain} for status, POST /domains/{domain}/renew, and PATCH /domains/{domain}. GET /health reports service status.

How do I add AiVikings to ChatGPT?

Add AiVikings as a connector in ChatGPT, authorize it with your account, and then ask in plain language, for example “find and register a domain for my project.” ChatGPT checks availability through AiVikings and runs the registration flow conversationally.

How can MCP clients and directories discover the AiVikings server?

AiVikings publishes a discovery file at https://aivikings.ai/.well-known/mcp.json with the server endpoint and tool list, so clients, registries, and crawlers can find the server without scraping the docs page.

Which TLDs can I register?

Your account determines which TLDs are available. The documentation uses .icu in examples, and the prices page lists supported TLDs with current register, renew, and transfer prices.

Can I test connectivity before registering anything?

Yes. You can list MCP tools with a tools/list request without a token, call GET /health on the REST API, or run check_domain_availability after authenticating. Availability checks do not register anything.

What is an MCP domain registrar?

MCP is the Model Context Protocol, a standard way for AI agents to discover and call external tools. An MCP domain registrar exposes its domain operations as MCP tools, so an agent can register and manage domains by calling those tools directly, the same way it uses any other tool you give it. Instead of a human logging into a dashboard or a developer hand-coding calls against an API, the agent reads the available tools, picks the right one, and acts. AiVikings runs an MCP server at mcp.aivikings.ai that any MCP-compatible agent can connect to, with OAuth 2.1 and Dynamic Client Registration so the connection is set up without a person manually issuing credentials.

Which services let AI agents manage domains through MCP?

A handful of registrars now run MCP servers, and the number is growing as MCP becomes the common way agents call tools. AiVikings is one of them, built so an agent can handle the full lifecycle of a domain over MCP: checking a name, registering it, renewing it, and pointing it at nameservers, with no human step. When comparing options, the things worth checking are whether the MCP server covers every operation your agent needs end to end, whether it uses OAuth 2.1 with dynamic client registration so agents can authenticate on their own, and whether managed DNS is included so the domain resolves once registered. You can connect to ours at mcp.aivikings.ai.
