We couldn’t confirm it starts correctly

We ran the install command but it didn't respond within our test window — this can mean a slow first-time install rather than a real problem.

npx -y netintel-mcp

No response to initialize.

This is an experimental automated check and can have false negatives — missing environment variables, a slow cold install, etc. It doesn’t necessarily mean something’s wrong. Last checked 9d ago.

Overview

netintel-mcp connects AI agents to NetIntel's network intelligence API and x402 router, covering DNS, TLS, WHOIS, email security, IP reputation, web analysis, and OSINT. It exposes 126 pay-per-call tools, with requests paid in USDC on Base or Solana through an existing agent wallet or an optional dedicated key. Without a configured key, paid calls return the request and price for an external wallet to approve. Reach for it when an agent needs domain investigation, infrastructure checks, content extraction, or related intelligence without maintaining separate provider integrations.

Use cases

  • Investigate a domain's DNS, registration, certificates, and hosting
  • Check IP reputation, blacklist status, ASN, and geolocation
  • Validate email authentication and deliverability signals
  • Inspect web pages, redirects, headers, metadata, and technologies
  • Extract intelligence from public OSINT and repository sources

Key features

  • 126 pay-per-call network intelligence tools
  • DNS, TLS, WHOIS, RDAP, and certificate-transparency analysis
  • Email, IP reputation, blacklist, URL safety, and cloud checks
  • Web fetching, extraction, fingerprinting, and OSINT lookups
  • x402 USDC payments through external or dedicated wallets
  • Per-call and per-session spending limits

How Netintel MCP works

What netintel-mcp does

netintel-mcp gives MCP-compatible agents access to NetIntel's pay-per-call network intelligence API. Its toolset spans DNS and DNSSEC checks, TLS certificate inspection, WHOIS and RDAP data, certificate-transparency searches, ASN and subnet lookups, email authentication, IP reputation, blacklist checks, URL safety, cloud and technology fingerprinting, and domain reports.

It also includes web and OSINT functions such as redirect tracing, security-header analysis, page and metadata extraction, RSS and sitemap parsing, robots.txt inspection, Wayback Machine lookups, username checks, GitHub repository metadata, and structured-data extraction. Other tools cover phone and email intelligence, JWT inspection, cron parsing, currency conversion, holidays, language detection, npm metadata, and domain availability.

How it works

Each tool call is priced individually and uses x402 payments. NetIntel accepts USDC on Base or Solana. The server can pay automatically from a dedicated wallet, or it can return the exact request and amount for payment through AgentCash, Coinbase Agentic Wallet, or Coinbase Wallet MCP. The wallet's own approvals and spending limits remain in effect.

The server communicates with NetIntel's API at netintel.dev and router services at router.netintel.dev. Some NetIntel operations pass inputs to providers such as AbuseIPDB, AlienVault OTX, Exa, GitHub, OpenAI, Anthropic, CoinGecko, or blockchain explorers, depending on the tool. Fetch-oriented tools retrieve the URL supplied to them.

Setup and configuration

Install the package with npx as an MCP server, for example through Claude Code:

Terminal
claude mcp add netintel -- npx -y netintel-mcp

It can also be added to Claude Desktop with a command-and-arguments MCP configuration. No key is required to start. Set EVM_PRIVATE_KEY when using a dedicated agent wallet with USDC on Base mainnet; the server then pays listed prices automatically. With a key configured, NETINTEL_MAX_PER_CALL_USD limits an individual payment and NETINTEL_MAX_SESSION_USD limits total authorized spending for the process. Their defaults are $0.25 and $5 respectively.

A Claude Code plugin is also available through the kjgueye/netintel-mcp marketplace. The plugin installs the server and a skill for selecting NetIntel endpoints and handling payment instructions.

Limitations and notes

Calls incur separate usage charges, and listed prices are not merely estimates when a wallet key is configured: eligible requests are paid automatically unless a spending limit blocks them. NetIntel retains paid-call inputs and results under its privacy policy. External providers may receive inputs required to answer particular tools. A private key should only be used for a wallet dedicated to this service and funded for the intended limits.

Frequently Asked Questions about Netintel MCP

netintel-mcp is an MCP server that connects AI agents to the NetIntel API and router, exposing pay-per-call tools for DNS, TLS, WHOIS, email security, IP reputation, web analysis, OSINT, and related intelligence. Calls use x402 payments in USDC, through an agent wallet or an optional dedicated wallet key.

Install it with `npx -y netintel-mcp` through an MCP client, such as Claude Code with `claude mcp add netintel -- npx -y netintel-mcp`. A Claude Code plugin is also available from the `kjgueye/netintel-mcp` marketplace, and Claude Desktop can use the same command in its MCP configuration.

No API key is required to start. Without `EVM_PRIVATE_KEY`, paid tools return a ready-to-pay request for AgentCash, Coinbase Agentic Wallet, or Coinbase Wallet MCP. Setting `EVM_PRIVATE_KEY` lets a dedicated wallet pay automatically on Base mainnet.

Set `NETINTEL_MAX_PER_CALL_USD` and `NETINTEL_MAX_SESSION_USD` to cap payments made with a configured wallet key. The per-call limit defaults to $0.25 and the process session limit defaults to $5; blocked payments return a spending-limit message without signing.

Yes. Add the `npx -y netintel-mcp` command to Claude Desktop's MCP server configuration. The optional environment block can contain `EVM_PRIVATE_KEY` when the server should pay from a dedicated wallet.
