Overview

This skill integrates with ClawDaddy, an AI-friendly domain registrar, to check availability, brainstorm names, purchase domains, and manage DNS and nameservers. It supports fast, unauthenticated lookups and authenticated management operations via a persistent management token. Two purchase flows are available: a crypto-friendly x402 (USDC on Base) flow for agents and Stripe checkout for human users. The skill exposes endpoints for DNS records, nameserver updates, transfers, and token recovery.

How this skill works

The skill performs domain availability lookups without signup or CAPTCHA and can return JSON or plain text. Brainstorming combines cached suggestions with live searches depending on mode (fast, balanced, deep). Purchases require a quote step; x402 returns a payment-required challenge and accepts on-chain proof, while Stripe returns a checkout URL. Management operations use a Bearer management token for listing domain details, CRUD DNS records, updating nameservers, changing settings, and initiating transfers.

When to use it

• Check quickly if a domain is available before pitching or naming a project.
• Generate batches of available brandable domains constrained by price and TLDs.
• Programmatically purchase domains using crypto or card payments from an agent.
• Automate DNS record creation and nameserver updates after provisioning infrastructure.
• Recover or rotate management tokens when a token is lost or compromised.

Best practices

• Always request a purchase quote before attempting payment; quotes expire shortly.
• Persist the returned managementToken immediately after purchase — it cannot be retrieved later.
• Use the appropriate brainstorm mode: fast for latency, balanced for accuracy, deep for creativity.
• Include Authorization: Bearer <token> for all management endpoints to avoid 401 errors.
• Rate-limit recover requests and follow the recovery flow to generate a new token safely.

Example use cases

• Agent checks availability for a list of names and filters results by price and TLD.
• Automated flow: lookup → quote → x402 payment proof → store management token for future DNS changes.
• Set up a new app by creating A and CNAME records and pointing nameservers to Vercel or Cloudflare.
• Provision Google Workspace by adding MX and TXT records via the DNS API.
• Recover access by submitting domain and email or wallet details to generate a new management token.
