Subdomain Finder MCP

A community MCP server that performs passive subdomain enumeration using public certificate transparency logs like certspotter and crt.sh. It supports optional DNS checks via Cloudflare DoH to identify live hosts, dangling CNAMEs, and wildcard DNS. It also provides certificate history and attack surface summarization for security reconnaissance.

Endpoint and access

No sign-in to connect and list tools. Individual tools may still need a vendor account, credentials, or permissions; check the documented prerequisites.

What you can do with it

  • Passive subdomain discovery from certificate transparency logs
  • DNS resolution checks for live hosts and dangling CNAMEs
  • Certificate history retrieval including issuers and validity dates
  • Summarizing attack surface by grouping subdomains into categories

Server-provided instructions

Untrusted server output shown for inspection. It is not Koskamo guidance and is excluded from knowledge search.

Live, passive subdomain discovery from certificate transparency logs (certspotter, crt.sh) plus DNS over HTTPS via Cloudflare. No port scans and no requests to the target. A model cannot know a domain's current subdomains from training data; call find_subdomains, then resolve_subdomains for the hosts that matter. For authorised recon only (bug bounty scope, your own assets).

find_subdomains — Find subdomains (certificate transparency)
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-onlyOpen-world

Passive subdomain enumeration for a domain from live certificate transparency logs: certspotter (unexpired certificates) with crt.sh as fallback or for expired history. Returns deduplicated hostnames with first seen and last seen issuance dates, certificate count, issuers and whether a wildcard certificate covers the name, plus the list of wildcard entries. Set resolve=true to also check the first 40 names with DNS over HTTPS and mark live hosts. Passive lookup of public certificate transparency logs; nothing is sent to the target. Use it on assets you own or are authorised to test.

resolve_subdomains — Resolve subdomains (DNS over HTTPS)
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-onlyOpen-world

Resolve up to 40 hostnames now through Cloudflare DNS over HTTPS (A, AAAA and the CNAME chain). Each host is marked live, nxdomain, no_records or dangling_cname (a CNAME whose target does not exist, a subdomain takeover lead), and CNAME targets on cloud platforms (S3, Azure, Heroku, GitHub Pages, Netlify, Vercel and others) are named. Also probes a random label per parent domain to detect wildcard DNS. DNS lookups only; no connection is made to the hosts.

get_certificate_history — Get certificate history for a host
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-onlyOpen-world

Certificates logged in certificate transparency for one hostname (or a whole domain with include_subdomains): issuer organisation and DN, not_before and not_after dates, every SAN on the certificate, revocation status and SHA-256 where certspotter has them. Summarises first and last issuance and the issuers used, which shows CA changes and renewal cadence. Default source certspotter (unexpired); include_expired uses crt.sh for the full history.

summarize_attack_surface — Summarize attack surface from CT
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-onlyOpen-world

Reads a domain's subdomains from live certificate transparency and groups them for recon triage: development and test, staging, admin and internal tools, APIs, authentication, mail, remote access (VPN), storage and CDN, legacy and backup. Each group has a count, examples and why it matters. Also returns naming clusters (for example *.eu.example.com), certificate issuers in use, wildcard entries and the 10 newest names. Passive only.
