Whois Lookup

Network REST API MCP network tool

Return WHOIS-style registration data for a domain from the public RDAP service: registrar, creation, update and expiry dates, EPP status codes, nameservers and DNSSEC state.

This page documents the MCP tool findutils:whois_lookup. See the REST reference →

This tool fetches a fixed, hard-coded public upstream — never a private host. Results depend on that upstream.
