Research domain WHOIS data and check marketplace listings. Use when the user says "domain lookup", "check domain", "WHOIS", "domain availability", "buy domain", "domain research", "who owns this domain", "domain marketplace", or asks about researching or acquiring a domain name.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

- **Registrar:** Who the domain is registered through
- **Created date:** When the domain was first registered
- **Expiry date:** When it expires
- **Nameservers:** DNS configuration
- **DNSSEC:** Whether DNSSEC is enabled
- **Registrant contacts:** Owner info (often privacy-protected)
- **Status codes:** Domain status (clientTransferProhibited, etc.)

### Marketplace Listing Search

curl -s "https://api.domaindetails.com/api/marketplace/search?domain={domain}" | jq
```

- **Sedo** — Largest domain marketplace
- **Afternic** — GoDaddy's marketplace
- **Atom** — Premium domains
- **Dynadot** — Auction and marketplace
- **Namecheap** — Marketplace listings

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add openclaudia/openclaudia-skills/domain-research@sha256:2dc8e7a17f5b40da

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260212.78e31a7, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
