get_domain_intel

Full domain analysis: DNS records (A, AAAA, MX, NS, TXT, CNAME), WHOIS/RDAP registration data, inferred hosting provider and email service. No API keys needed. Use this when you need infrastructure-level intelligence about a company — who hosts them, what email provider they use, when the domain ...

Part of the Companyscope MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.

AI agents call get_domain_intel to retrieve information from Companyscope without modifying any data. This is common in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows where the agent needs context before taking action. Because read operations don't change state, they are generally safe to allow without restrictions -- but you may still want rate limits to control API costs.

Even though get_domain_intel only reads data, uncontrolled read access can leak sensitive information or rack up API costs. An agent caught in a retry loop could make thousands of calls per minute. A rate limit gives you a safety net without blocking legitimate use.

Read-only tools are safe to allow by default. No rate limit needed unless you want to control costs.

What does the get_domain_intel tool do? +

Full domain analysis: DNS records (A, AAAA, MX, NS, TXT, CNAME), WHOIS/RDAP registration data, inferred hosting provider and email service. No API keys needed. Use this when you need infrastructure-level intelligence about a company — who hosts them, what email provider they use, when the domain was registered, and what DNS configuration they have.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Companyscope MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on get_domain_intel? +

Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for get_domain_intel. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the Companyscope MCP server.

What risk level is get_domain_intel? +

get_domain_intel is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit get_domain_intel? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_domain_intel rule in your Intercept policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.

How do I block get_domain_intel completely? +

Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for get_domain_intel. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.

What MCP server provides get_domain_intel? +

get_domain_intel is provided by the Companyscope MCP server (stewyboy1990/companyscope-mcp). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
