DMARKOFF MCP

DMARC analytics inside your AI assistant.

DMARKOFF MCP connects your DMARC monitoring data to AI assistants — Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Windsurf — through the Model Context Protocol. Instead of opening a dashboard and building filters, you ask a question and get an answer with real numbers behind it.

Endpoint: https://mcp.dmarkoff.com/mcp
Requires: an active DMARKOFF account and an API key from app.dmarkoff.com/account/mcp

What it looks like in practice

"Which domains dropped in compliance over the last 14 days?"

The AI checks health across all your projects and surfaces the ones that changed — ranked by how much.

"Why is SPF failing on acme-transact.com? Who's the problem sender?"

The AI checks return paths, finds the sending source (say, SendGrid using its own bounce domain instead of yours), and tells you what to fix.

"Anything unusual in email traffic compared to last week?"

The AI compares yesterday's stats against a 14-day baseline — compliance rate, unknown sender volume, message counts. The kind of check most teams skip because setting it up manually takes too long.

Click + in the chat window → Connectors → Manage Connectors → Add custom connector, paste the URL, complete the OAuth flow.

Or edit the config file (~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json on macOS):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dmarkoff": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://mcp.dmarkoff.com/mcp",
        "--header",
        "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http dmarkoff https://mcp.dmarkoff.com/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

Cursor

Settings → Tools & MCP → Add new MCP server, select Streamable HTTP, enter the URL.

Or edit ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dmarkoff": {
      "url": "https://mcp.dmarkoff.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

ChatGPT (Business / Enterprise / Edu)

Enable Developer Mode, then go to Settings → Apps → Create App:

• MCP Server URL: https://mcp.dmarkoff.com/mcp
• Auth type: OAuth
• Client ID: chatgpt
• Client Secret: your DMARKOFF API key
• Authorization URL: https://mcp.dmarkoff.com/oauth/authorize
• Token URL: https://mcp.dmarkoff.com/oauth/token
• Scope: dmarc:read

Windsurf

Edit ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dmarkoff": {
      "serverUrl": "https://mcp.dmarkoff.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Note: Windsurf uses serverUrl, not url.

Things to ask

Show me an overview of all my DMARC projects

Which domains have Critical severity right now?

Why is SPF failing on domain.com? Which senders are the problem?

Are there anomalies in email traffic over the last 24 hours?

Show me source details for domain.com grouped by ISP — only rows where SPF is failing

Live DNS checks — no account needed:

Check the SPF record for example.com — are there too many DNS lookups?

What DMARC policy does example.com have right now?

Look up the DKIM key for selector "google" on example.com

Tools

Analytics (require API key)

Live DNS (no account needed)

All tools are read-only (readOnlyHint: true per MCP spec). No tool can modify or delete data.

Security

• API key auth — access is scoped to your DMARKOFF account
• OAuth 2.1 (RFC 8414, RFC 9728) — compatible with standard MCP flows used by Claude.ai and ChatGPT
• Project-level isolation — the AI only sees what your API key has access to
• Per-session rate limiting — protection against accidental overuse
• Read-only — all tools are annotated as read-only; no data can be modified

How this differs from other DMARC MCP tools

DNS checks tell you SPF is failing. DMARKOFF MCP tells you which specific sender is causing the failure, how many messages it affected over the last two weeks, and what the fix is. That data comes from your aggregate reports — the actual traffic — not just what's published in DNS.

Troubleshooting

Tools don't appear in the client
→ Confirm your client supports Streamable HTTP (not just SSE).
→ Some clients need a full restart after config changes.

401 Unauthorized
→ Check your API key at app.dmarkoff.com/account/mcp.

"No projects found"
→ The API key needs access to at least one project. Log into app.dmarkoff.com to verify.

OAuth errors
→ The Client Secret field takes your DMARKOFF API key, not your account password.
