Usage Examples

Check Domain Availability

User: Is coolstartup.com available?
Claude: [Uses lookup_domain tool]
  Domain: coolstartup.com
  Status: AVAILABLE
  Available: Yes
  Purchase Price: $12.99/year
  Renewal Price: $19.99/year

Purchase a Domain

User: Buy coolstartup.com
Claude: [Uses purchase_domain tool]
  Stripe Checkout Session Created

  Checkout URL: https://checkout.stripe.com/c/pay/cs_live_...

  ** ACTION REQUIRED: Have your human open the checkout URL to complete
  payment with their credit card. **

  After payment:
  1. The management token will be shown on the success page
  2. A confirmation email will be sent with the token
  3. Save the token to manage DNS, nameservers, and settings

Important: The agent generates a checkout URL, but a human must complete the payment via Stripe. After payment, provide the management token back to the agent for DNS/nameserver management.

Configure DNS

User: Point coolstartup.com to my server at 123.45.67.89
Claude: [Uses add_dns_record tool]
  DNS Record Created:
  [1] @ A 123.45.67.89 TTL:300

User: Add a www subdomain too
Claude: [Uses add_dns_record tool]
  DNS Record Created:
  [2] www CNAME coolstartup.com TTL:300

Point to Cloudflare

User: Use Cloudflare nameservers for coolstartup.com
Claude: [Uses set_nameservers tool]
  Nameservers updated!

  Nameservers for coolstartup.com:
    - ns1.cloudflare.com
    - ns2.cloudflare.com

Purchase Flow

1. Agent calls purchase_domain with the domain name
2. Agent receives a Stripe checkout URL
3. Human opens the checkout URL and completes payment with credit card
4. Human sees the management token on the success page (also emailed)
5. Human provides the token to the agent (e.g., "my token is clwd_abc123...")
6. Agent can now manage DNS, nameservers, and settings using the token

Management Tokens

After purchase, you receive a management token (clwd_xxx...). This token is required for all domain management operations.

Important:

• Save your token immediately - it cannot be retrieved without recovery
• Token recovery generates a new token and invalidates the old one
• Use recover_token with your email address if lost
