Install

How do I install the ai.kaiv/email-check MCP server?

ai.kaiv/email-check is a hosted endpoint at https://api.kaiv.ai/api/bridge/mcp/email-check-b6ab5250, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

MCP tools · 4 exposed · ~522 tokens

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

Tool Tokens
check_email_domain ~144

Full email posture for a domain: can it receive mail, and can it be spoofed? Runs MX, SPF and DMARC lookups together and returns a plain-language verdict alongside the raw records: can_receive_mail, spoofable, and a list of specific findings. Use this as the default check before emailing an unfamiliar domain, when judging whether inbound mail claiming to be from a domain could be forged, or when auditing your own domains. Prefer this over the single-record tools unless you already know which record you need.

NameTypeReqDescription
domainstringyesDomain to check, e.g. "example.com". A full email address is accepted and the domain is taken from it.
NameTypeReqDescription
can_receive_mailbooleanyesFalse when the domain publishes no MX records.
checked_atstring
dmarcobject
domainstringyes
findingsarrayOne line per specific problem; empty when the domain is correctly configured.
mxobject
spfobject
spoofablebooleanyesTrue unless DMARC is present AND at an enforcing policy. Deliberately conservative: without enforcement a receiver has no instruction to reject forged mail, however good the SPF record is.
summarystringyesPlain-language verdict.

No examples provided.

get_dmarc_record ~163

DMARC record, policy, and whether it actually protects. Returns the DMARC TXT record at _dmarc.<domain>, its policy (none / quarantine / reject), the percentage it applies to, and whether that policy protects against spoofing. Also flags the case of MULTIPLE DMARC records, which RFC 7489 requires receivers to treat as no policy at all — a domain in that state is unprotected however strict its records look. A policy of "none" is monitoring only and does not stop forged mail. Use when assessing whether mail claiming to be from a domain can be trusted.

NameTypeReqDescription
domainstringyesDomain to check, e.g. "example.com". A full email address is accepted and the domain is taken from it.
NameTypeReqDescription
all_recordsarrayPresent only when more than one DMARC record exists.

percentintegerThe pct= tag; defaults to 100.
policystring"ignored" means duplicate records cancelled the policy out.

recordstring

No examples provided.

get_mx_records ~99

Mail exchanger records for a domain. Returns the MX hosts in priority order and whether any exist. A domain with no MX records cannot receive mail, so sending to it will bounce. Use when you only need deliverability and not spoofing posture; use check_email_domain for the full picture.

NameTypeReqDescription
domainstringyesDomain to check, e.g. "example.com". A full email address is accepted and the domain is taken from it.
NameTypeReqDescription
can_receive_mailboolean
domainstringyes
foundbooleanWhether any MX record exists.
hostsarrayMX hosts, lowest priority first.

No examples provided.

get_spf_record ~116

SPF record and how strict it is. Returns the SPF TXT record, the qualifier on its `all` mechanism (fail / softfail / neutral / pass) and what that means in practice, plus whether more than one SPF record exists — which receivers treat as an error, leaving the domain unprotected. Use when diagnosing why mail from a domain is being rejected or marked.

NameTypeReqDescription
domainstringyesDomain to check, e.g. "example.com". A full email address is accepted and the domain is taken from it.
NameTypeReqDescription
domainstringyes
foundboolean
meaningstringWhat the qualifier means in practice.
multiple_recordsbooleanMore than one SPF record: receivers treat this as permerror, so SPF effectively fails.
qualifierstringThe qualifier on the `all` mechanism.
recordstringThe raw SPF TXT record, or null when absent.
strictbooleanTrue only for `-all`, the one strict answer.

No examples provided.

Common questions

What is the ai.kaiv/email-check MCP server?

ai.kaiv/email-check is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as ai.kaiv/email-check. Email posture for any domain: can it receive mail, can it be spoofed? MX, SPF and DMARC. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://api.kaiv.ai/api/bridge/mcp/email-check-b6ab5250).

Is the ai.kaiv/email-check MCP server safe to use?

ai.kaiv/email-check scores 89 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

What tools does the ai.kaiv/email-check MCP server expose?

ai.kaiv/email-check exposes 4 tools: check_email_domain, get_dmarc_record, get_mx_records, get_spf_record. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 522 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Does the ai.kaiv/email-check MCP server require authentication?

No. We connected to ai.kaiv/email-check without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.

Is the ai.kaiv/email-check MCP server still maintained?

ai.kaiv/email-check is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 20 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
