dotsweep 1.2.1

Domain availability across 1,200+ TLDs for an AI agent — with the renewal price, the registry's minimum term, and who is allowed to register.

Never reports an unreachable registry as available. A raw whois returns text for a throttled registry that reads like a not-found, so a hand-rolled check reports a taken domain as free. Unconfirmed answers here are marked estimated, never available.

Install

Skill — paste into any agent that can write files:

Add a skill called dotsweep, for checking domain availability. Fetch https://dotsweep.com/skill.md and save it verbatim as dotsweep/SKILL.md inside whichever skills directory you read.

MCP server, for clients that take a URL — including the phone apps, where nothing can be installed:

https://dotsweep.com/mcp

Setup click-path at dotsweep.com/setup.

New in this release: a GitHub Action

For the cases with no agent in the loop — watching a name until it drops, or checking candidates on a schedule.

- uses: stanmaygo/dotsweep@v1
  id: names
  with:
    domains: acme brandnew
    tlds: com io ai dev
- run: echo "free: ${{ steps.names.outputs.available }}"

Four output buckets, and three of them are not available. A rate-limited registry lands in unconfirmed. An unreachable API fails the step rather than answering, because a name missing from taken reads exactly like a free one. closed is separate because a .brand TLD answers with a genuine not-found — shoes.nike is unregistered and unbuyable at once.

Limits

• Premium and reserved names return the same registry answer as an ordinary free domain. Every quoted price is a floor.
• A TLD with no eligibility entry has not been checked — that is not the same as having no requirements.
