Namecheap MCP – Domain Search Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides domain search, fuzzy domain suggestions, and availability lookup using Fastly Domain Research API, with Namecheap buy links for quick purchase.

This is designed to be consumed by MCP-compatible clients (e.g., Postman MCP, AI agents).

🚀 Features

• Fuzzy domain search from natural language queries
  → "apple", "cool ai studio", "apple.com" etc.
• Exact match detection
  → apple.com, apple.io, apple.ai
• Similar / brandable variations
  → getapple.com, tryapple.io, applehq.ai, etc.
• Live domain availability via Fastly Domain Research API
• Marks premium domains when detected
• Provides direct Namecheap buy link for every suggestion
• Fully async + fast response time

🧠 How it works (high-level)

Fastly API is used only to determine availability + premium status.
Prices are not included yet, but can be added later (Porkbun, Namecheap API, etc.).
