Claude Porkbun connectorWhat Claude can do in your Porkbun account.

The Claude Porkbun connector exposes 61 tools: 30 read your domains, 28 change or buy, 3 are undocumented. Here: what Claude can look up, what it can change or delete, what it asks first, where the sources disagree on buying, and who can switch it off.

Overview

What changes when Claude runs your Porkbun account

Checking a name, reading its DNS, changing a record or publishing a static page each takes its own screen in the Porkbun dashboard. With this connector you say what you want in one sentence and Claude calls the tools itself. It is also a sensitive connector: Porkbun says plainly that DNS mistakes take sites and mail offline, and that registrations spend real money.

A domain checked, then pointed. You have a name in mind: check_domain says whether it is free and what it costs, and once the domain is in your account, create_dns_record points it at a server. Whether your install can also buy it is the open question below.

DNS reviewed before anything breaks. list_dns_records shows every record of a zone with its identifier, and update_dns_record changes the one that points at the wrong host.

A static site shipped without an FTP client. On a domain that already has Secure Static Hosting, deploy_site uploads the files and list_hosting_files shows what is there.

Now what the directory sheet does not say. The sheet lists a desktop extension whose tools include buying, while Porkbun's own page calls the directory version the one without purchases: the section on limits sets both side by side, and this page promises neither. Porkbun adds guardrails of its own, such as dry runs on billable or destructive calls and a monthly API spend limit. Nothing runs on its own: no tool fires when a domain nears expiry. For that kind of background job you need an automation tool, a different job; the Integrations hub gathers that side.

Vocabulary

The vocabulary in one minute

Five words you will meet while connecting Porkbun.

Connector
The link you set up once between Claude and an account you already own, so Claude can work in it while it answers you.
Tool
One named thing a connector lets Claude do in that account. Claude picks the ones it needs; the directory sheet lists them by name.
Authorization
The service's own screen where you hand Claude the access it will use. Granted once per person, and it can be taken back.
Approval
The confirmation Claude waits for before it goes ahead with something that changes your account, shown in the chat when it matters.
MCP
The shared standard connectors are built on: it is what lets an assistant such as Claude talk to a service outside it.
Connect

Setting up the Claude Porkbun connector in three steps

  1. 01

    Find Porkbun in Claude

    Open Claude's settings, go to Customize, then Connectors, and look for Porkbun in the list. The directory sheet describes it as a desktop extension, which installs on Claude Desktop. On Team or Enterprise, an Owner or Primary Owner enables it first.

  2. 02

    Connect from its row

    Click Connect on the Porkbun row. If the extension then asks for something, such as Porkbun API keys, complete that step. If the link breaks later, Disconnect the connector, then connect it again.

  3. 03

    Read what you are granting

    If an authorization screen from the service appears, read it before you accept. It belongs to Porkbun, not to Claude, and it is what decides how far the access reaches. Porkbun also lets you restrict a key to given domains and source IPs.

Tools

The 61 tools, split by what they do

Porkbun gives Claude 61 tools: 30 that read your account, 28 that change something in it, and 3 no official source describes.

Three groups: what Claude reads, what it changes or buys, and what no official source describes. Names stay exactly as Claude displays them.

  • 30 read
  • 28 write
  • 3 not documented

What Claude reads (30)

30 tools

Thirty tools that look at domains, records, hosting, webhooks and docs without changing them.

ping

Checks that the connection to the Porkbun API works and that the credentials in use are accepted, before Claude tries anything heavier.

When it helps
you just set the extension up and want to know whether the keys you pasted are the right ones.

Sourcegithub.com · October 1, 2026 ↗

check_domain

Tells you whether one domain is free to register and what it costs, so the answer comes from Porkbun rather than from a guess. Porkbun expresses every money parameter in cents, and the parameter name says so.

When it helps
you have a name in mind and want its availability and price before going further.

Sourcegithub.com · October 1, 2026 ↗

get_registration_requirements

Returns what a given extension demands at registration, expressed as a JSON Schema, so Claude knows which details the registry expects for that extension before anything is filed.

When it helps
you are looking at an extension you have never registered and want its requirements first.

Sourcegithub.com · October 1, 2026 ↗

get_pricing

Fetches Porkbun's current prices for every supported extension in one call, which lets Claude compare extensions side by side instead of checking them one at a time.

When it helps
you are choosing between several extensions for the same name and want their current prices together.

Sourcegithub.com · October 1, 2026 ↗

list_marketplace

Browses the domains offered for sale on the Porkbun marketplace. Porkbun specifies that this is the aftermarket: names owned by other users, not new registrations.

When it helps
the exact name you want is already taken and you want to see whether it is listed there.

Sourcegithub.com · October 1, 2026 ↗

list_domains

Lists the domains held in your Porkbun account, the starting point before Claude looks at any one of them in detail with the domain, DNS or hosting tools.

When it helps
you want the full list of names on the account before reviewing them one by one.

Sourcegithub.com · October 1, 2026 ↗

get_domain

Returns the metadata of one domain: status, creation and expiry dates, security lock, WHOIS privacy, auto-renew and API access opt-in. It covers only one name at a time.

When it helps
you need to know when a client's domain expires and whether it will renew by itself.

Sourcegithub.com · October 1, 2026 ↗

get_balance

Shows the credit available on your Porkbun account. Porkbun says purchases spend this prepaid credit, and that your card is only charged on a top-up you approve or an auto top-up you set up.

When it helps
you want to know how much credit the account holds right now.

Sourcegithub.com · October 1, 2026 ↗

get_api_settings

Reads the API spend controls of your account: monthly spend limit, low-balance alert threshold, auto top-up settings and what the API has spent in the current month.

When it helps
you want to check which spend limit is set on the account and how much of it the API has used this month.

Sourcegithub.com · October 1, 2026 ↗

get_nameservers

Shows which nameservers a domain in your account currently uses, which tells Claude where its DNS is actually served before it looks at any record.

When it helps
your records look right in Porkbun but the site does not respond, and you want to see which nameservers the domain points to.

Sourcegithub.com · October 1, 2026 ↗

list_dns_records

Lists every DNS record stored for a domain in your account, each with the numeric identifier Porkbun gives it. That identifier is what Claude needs later to point at one precise record.

When it helps
you need an inventory of a domain's zone before touching anything in it.

Sourcegithub.com · October 1, 2026 ↗

list_dnssec_records

Shows the DNSSEC DS records currently submitted to the registry for a domain, so Claude can tell you what the registry holds for that name today.

When it helps
you are preparing a nameserver switch for a domain and must know first which DS records are on file.

Sourcegithub.com · October 1, 2026 ↗

list_url_forwards

Returns all the URL redirection rules configured on a domain, each with its identifier, so Claude can tell you where each address leads.

When it helps
visitors of a domain end up on another address and you want to see which rules are in place.

Sourcegithub.com · October 1, 2026 ↗

list_glue_records

Shows the glue records of a domain, host by host, as they stand at Porkbun, so Claude can read back the addresses tied to each host name.

When it helps
you run nameservers under your own domain and want to verify the addresses on file for them.

Sourcegithub.com · October 1, 2026 ↗

list_transfers

Gathers the inbound domain transfers in progress or recently made on your account, so Claude can report where each one stands in a single answer.

When it helps
several names are on their way to Porkbun and you want one status view for all of them.

Sourcegithub.com · October 1, 2026 ↗

get_transfer_status

Reports the status of one specific inbound transfer for a domain, which is narrower than the full list and useful when a single name is the question.

When it helps
one domain has been in transfer longer than you expected and you want its current status.

Sourcegithub.com · October 1, 2026 ↗

get_ssl_bundle

Retrieves the free SSL certificate bundle Porkbun issues for a domain, ready to install on a server.

When it helps
you host a small site on your own machine and need the certificate files to enable HTTPS.
Watch out
Porkbun counts SSL private keys among the secrets its no-purchase endpoint leaves out.

Sourcegithub.com · October 1, 2026 ↗

get_contacts

Returns the four contacts of a domain, registrant, admin, tech and billing, with their current field values: name, organization, address, phone and email.

When it helps
you want to confirm who is listed as registrant, and with which details, on a domain of your account.

Sourcegithub.com · October 1, 2026 ↗

list_hosting_plans

Lists the hosting plans available through the API with their price in cents, billing interval, trial length and features. Those amounts in cents are what Porkbun expects back at provisioning time.

When it helps
you want to compare static hosting and managed WordPress before choosing for a client.

Sourcegithub.com · October 1, 2026 ↗

get_hosting

Reports the Secure Static Hosting status of a domain, plan, server, trial, expiry and auto-renew, or says that it has none.

When it helps
a landing page is down and you want to rule out an expired hosting trial first.

Sourcegithub.com · October 1, 2026 ↗

list_hosting_files

Lists the file and folder names in a domain's static hosting space, optionally under a given path. It shows names only, not file contents.

When it helps
you are unsure whether the last upload really reached the server and want to see what is there.

Sourcegithub.com · October 1, 2026 ↗

mock_call

Returns a realistic example response for any API endpoint, without credentials and without touching your account. Porkbun says no setup is needed for it.

When it helps
a developer wants to see what a registration response looks like before wiring anything to the real API.

Sourcegithub.com · October 1, 2026 ↗

list_doc_topics

Lists the available topics of the Porkbun API documentation, so Claude can pick the right page before reading it with read_doc.

When it helps
you are exploring what the Porkbun API covers and want an overview of its sections first.

Sourcegithub.com · October 1, 2026 ↗

read_doc

Reads one page of the Porkbun documentation as text, and Porkbun says it works without any API key.

When it helps
you want Claude to explain the exact rules for URL redirection from the official page rather than from memory.

Sourcegithub.com · October 1, 2026 ↗

search_docs

Searches the full Porkbun API reference by keyword and returns the most relevant sections; it also needs no key, according to Porkbun.

When it helps
you have a vague question about glue records and do not know which page covers it.

Sourcegithub.com · October 1, 2026 ↗

get_webhook_event_types

Lists the event types a webhook endpoint can be subscribed to on Porkbun. It is a catalogue: nothing gets subscribed by reading it.

When it helps
you want the exact name of an event before an endpoint is subscribed to it.

Sourcegithub.com · October 1, 2026 ↗

list_webhooks

Lists the webhook endpoints registered on the authenticated account, so Claude can tell you what is already wired up there. Each endpoint's detail is then one get_webhook call away.

When it helps
you suspect two endpoints were registered for the same purpose.

Sourcegithub.com · October 1, 2026 ↗

get_webhook

Fetches one webhook endpoint by its number, with its signing secret and its delivery health, consecutive failures included.

When it helps
your receiving service stopped getting events and you want to see when the last success was.
Watch out
the signing secret appears in the result, so mind who can read the chat.

Sourcegithub.com · October 1, 2026 ↗

list_webhook_deliveries

Lists recent webhook delivery attempts, newest first, across all endpoints or filtered to a single one, so Claude can trace what was sent and when.

When it helps
you are debugging a receiver and want the history of what was attempted recently.

Sourcegithub.com · October 1, 2026 ↗

get_webhook_delivery

Retrieves a single delivery by its id, with the full JSON payload that went out, or is about to, and its delivery status.

When it helps
you need the exact content of an event your system rejected in order to reproduce the problem.

Sourcegithub.com · October 1, 2026 ↗

Undocumented (3)

3 tools

Porkbun publishes these three names with a two-word label and nothing more. No text says what they do, and we will not guess it from a name.

sandbox_topup

This name sits in the tool list, and Porkbun's manifest attaches a two-word label to it, sandbox only, without saying what the tool does. No other official text covers it, so this page stops there. Whatever it does, Claude's general approval rule applies to it.

sandbox_reset

Same silence for this one: the published manifest flags it as reserved to the sandbox and gives no description of its effect. Porkbun's page adds only that its hosted server leaves sandbox tools out. We will not fill the gap with a guess; the approvals section covers it.

sandbox_trigger_webhook

Listed by name, labelled sandbox only in the manifest, and described nowhere else among the sources we read. Reading its behaviour into the words of its name would be guesswork, which this page refuses. Treat it under the default approval rule, like any tool without documentation.

Approvals

What Claude asks before it acts

By default, Claude stops and asks for your go-ahead before any action it takes on an account on your behalf. The request shows up in the conversation at the moment it matters.

No source says whether Claude asks before a specific Porkbun tool, so that default rule covers all twenty-eight changing ones. Porkbun adds its own layer: every tool declares whether it only reads or destroys something so a client can prompt you before risky ones, billable and destructive calls take a dry run, and prices are written in cents so a prompt shows the real amount. On Team and Enterprise workspaces, owners can restrict what a connector may do for everyone.

Plans

Which plans include it

None of the 819 sheets in the official directory shows availability by plan. The answer, connector by connector, is not published anywhere: a real gap in the catalogue.

The general rule is published: remote connectors are open to all users on Claude, Cowork, Claude Desktop and mobile, while desktop extensions install on Claude Desktop. On Team and Enterprise, an Owner or Primary Owner enables a connector before members can use it. For the current state, check the Porkbun sheet in the official directory.

Limits

Where this connector stops

A connector is not an automation. Claude calls these tools while it answers you: nothing starts when a domain nears expiry or a transfer stalls.

This connector has no Claude help article of its own; what we know comes from the directory sheet, Porkbun's page about its server and the manifest Porkbun publishes for the extension. The tool list is an observed floor, not a promise. The directory's verified badge is not a security audit, and Anthropic writes on every sheet that it does not control which tools a publisher exposes. Porkbun itself warns that several community servers wrap its API without being reviewed by it.

Two official sources disagree

Can the Porkbun connector from Claude's directory buy domains?

  • Claude directory sheet ↗October 2026A desktop extension whose 61 listed tools include register_domain, renew_domain and transfer_domain.
  • Porkbun's page about its server ↗October 2026The publisher says the version in Claude's directory is its no-purchase endpoint, leaving out registering, renewing, transferring, new hosting, credit and auto-renew.

What this page followsThe two do not describe the same thing: the sheet lists a desktop extension with buying tools, Porkbun describes a hosted endpoint without them. Neither is dated more recently than the other, so neither wins here. Check which tools the connector you installed actually exposes on your own account before relying on either.

FAQ

Questions about the Claude Porkbun connector

01What can Claude do with the Porkbun connector?
Claude can work on your Porkbun domains from inside a conversation. On the reading side, it checks availability and prices, lists your domains, reads each one's details and its DNS, DNSSEC, forwarding, glue, transfers, contacts, hosting and webhooks. On the changing side, the directory sheet lists tools to register, renew and transfer domains, edit DNS and contacts, deploy static hosting and manage webhooks, though Porkbun says the directory version leaves purchases out. Three sandbox tools carry only a sandbox-only label.
02Can Claude buy, edit or delete things in my Porkbun account?
The directory sheet lists twenty-eight changing tools, including registering, renewing and transferring domains with account credit, editing or deleting DNS records, and cancelling hosting. Porkbun's own page, however, says the version in Claude's directory leaves out anything that buys or charges. Both are presented side by side in the limits section; check which tools your installed connector shows before counting on purchases. Porkbun warns that DNS mistakes take sites and mail offline.
03Does Claude ask me before it registers a domain or edits DNS?
By default, Claude stops and asks for a confirmation before any action it takes on an account on your behalf, and no source describes a rule for one Porkbun tool in particular. Porkbun adds its own guardrails: each tool is labelled as reading or destructive so a client can prompt you, billable and destructive calls take a dry run, and the account can carry a monthly API spend limit. On Team or Enterprise, owners can block changing tools.
04Which Claude plans include the Porkbun connector?
No official source publishes plan availability connector by connector, and none of the 819 directory sheets displays it. The general rule says remote connectors are open to all users on Claude, Cowork, Claude Desktop and mobile, and desktop extensions install on Claude Desktop. On Team and Enterprise, an Owner or Primary Owner enables a connector first. The Porkbun sheet in the official directory shows the current state for your account.
05Does Claude see every domain in my Porkbun account?
It sees what the access you granted lets it see. Porkbun lets you restrict an API key to specific domains and source IP addresses, and it refuses calls outside that policy. Porkbun also lets you set a monthly API spend limit and low-balance alerts on the account. On a Team or Enterprise workspace in Claude, an owner can also restrict what the connector may do for every member, and that setting applies to everyone.
06Can I try the Porkbun connector without risking a real domain?
Yes, Porkbun describes three ways. The documentation tools work without any API key, and mock_call returns a schema-accurate example response for any endpoint without touching your account. Porkbun also offers a sandbox key that runs the whole API against an isolated environment with fake credit, no registry actions and no charges, and webhooks still fire there. The create_sandbox_key tool makes one, though Porkbun notes that sandbox tools are missing from its hosted server.
07Should I use Claude or an automation tool for Porkbun?
They do different jobs, so it depends on the use. Claude with this connector suits a request made in the moment: check this name, fix that record, publish this page. An automation tool suits work that must happen without anyone asking, such as reacting to a renewal event, because a connector never starts on its own. Claude only calls these tools while it is answering a request you made in the conversation.
