MCP tools · 4 exposed · ~560 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_domain ~179

Audit a domain's email setup in one call: MX records, SPF, DKIM, DMARC, MTA-STS, TLS-RPT, DNSSEC and BIMI, graded A-F with a fix for every problem found. Use this to answer "can this domain send and receive mail" or "why do our messages land in spam". Takes a domain (example.com), not an email address. The default answer summarises every section; pass `section` to get the full records and findings of one of them.

NameTypeReqDescription
dkim_selectorstringOptional DKIM selector to look up, e.g. "google" or "s1". Omit if unknown.
domainstringyesDomain to check, e.g. example.com
sectionstringDrill into a single section instead of the whole summary

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

check_spf ~67

Fetch and analyse the SPF record of a domain: the raw record, its mechanisms, lookup count and common misconfigurations. Use check_domain instead when the question is about overall deliverability rather than SPF specifically.

NameTypeReqDescription
domainstringyesDomain to check, e.g. example.com

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

validate_email ~128

Check whether a single email address is deliverable: syntax, domain MX records, disposable-domain database and a live SMTP mailbox probe. Status is one of "Valid", "Not Valid", "Unknown". Unknown means the mailbox could NOT be checked (catch-all domain, greylisting, blocked SMTP port) - it is NOT a bad address. Never delete, reject or report Unknown addresses as invalid; present them separately and let the user decide. Use validate_emails instead when you have more than one address.

No examples provided.

validate_emails ~186

Check up to 50 email addresses in one call and get a per-address verdict plus a summary. Status is one of "Valid", "Not Valid", "Unknown". Unknown means the mailbox could NOT be checked (catch-all domain, greylisting, blocked SMTP port) - it is NOT a bad address. Never delete, reject or report Unknown addresses as invalid; present them separately and let the user decide. Requires MAIL7_API_KEY (anonymous callers get a 25-address free sample only). Each address takes a few seconds of real SMTP work, so this call is slow by nature: for a longer list, split it and call this tool repeatedly with the next 50 addresses. Never run two calls in parallel - the API serialises one bulk job per client and the second call fails.
