Hostinger
Buy a domain, provision hosting, deploy a site, and set its DNS — one official server covering the whole chain, now through three search-and-execute tools.
Quick answer
What it does
Exposes the Hostinger API as operations the agent discovers with `search` and runs with `execute`: `domains_availability_check` and `domains_availability_suggest-names-from-description`, `domains_portfolio_purchase`, `domains_portfolio_update-nameservers`, `domains_forwarding_*`, `dns_records_list` / `dns_records_update` / `dns_records_validate`, `dns_snapshots_get` / `dns_snapshots_restore`, `hosting_deploy-static-website`, `hosting_deploy-js-application`, `hosting_import-wordpress-website`, `billing_orders_create-purchase`, plus VPS, WordPress and Agency Plan groups. Each search result carries the operation's input schema and `readOnly` / `destructive` flags.
Best for
- End-to-end domain → DNS → deploy in one server
- AI-assisted domain name suggestions from a project description
- DNS zone snapshots and point-in-time restore
- WordPress plugin, theme and core management
Not for
- Accounts held at another registrar or host
- Unattended runs with billing operations reachable — `billing_orders_create-purchase` and `domains_portfolio_purchase` spend money

ChatGPT → Apps directorynoneHostinger doesn't ship a hosted HTTPS endpoint today. ChatGPT supports remote MCP servers only — to use this server in ChatGPT you'll need to deploy it to a public HTTPS URL first (e.g. via Cloudflare Workers or Vercel) or wait for an official remote build.

Tools & permissions
| Tool | Description | Args | Side effects |
|---|---|---|---|
search | Find API operations by keyword; returns each match with its operation name, input schema and readOnly / destructive flags. | — | Read |
execute | Run one operation found with search, e.g. `domains_availability_check`, `dns_records_update` or `hosting_deploy-static-website`. Writes and purchases go through here. | — | Write |
multi-execute | Run up to twenty operations in order, stopping at the first failure; a later step can reference an earlier result with `$steps.<i>.<path>`. | — | Write |
Security & scope
- Access scope
- Read + write
- Sandbox
- No sandbox. Operations act on the live Hostinger account the token belongs to.
- Gotchas
- Purchases are one `execute` away: `domains_portfolio_purchase` registers a name and bills the account, and `billing_orders_create-purchase` orders any catalog item on the default payment method. Neither has a dry run. Keep both behind a confirmation, or install a scoped bin that excludes billing.
- `dns_records_update` with `overwrite = true` replaces the whole zone and `dns_records_reset` wipes it. Take a snapshot first — `dns_snapshots_get` and `dns_snapshots_restore` exist for exactly this — and run `dns_records_validate` before applying.
- OAuth sign-in is not supported in `--http` mode; set `HOSTINGER_API_TOKEN` before using it.
- The three-tool design means a `tools/list` probe tells you nothing about what the account can do. Search results carry `readOnly` and `destructive` flags — that is where the capability information lives now.
Agent prompt pack
— copy into Claude, Cursor, or ChatGPT.Recommend the best MCP servers for [task: e.g. domains work] in [client: Claude]. Constraints: - Prefer tools that are [official | open-source | read-only] — pick what matters for my use case. - Exclude MCPs that require [e.g. a paid plan, OAuth-only flows, remote-only transport]. - Return at most 3 picks, ranked. For each pick include: 1. One-sentence rationale. 2. The ready-to-paste install snippet for my client. 3. Any required secrets I need to create before installing. Cross-check the top-mcps.com listing: https://top-mcps.com/top-mcps-for-domains
Compare Hostinger MCP vs [Cloudflare MCP] for the following job: [describe the job, e.g. "let an agent create GitHub issues on bug triage"]. Judge them on: - Setup time and complexity (what a new user hits first). - Auth model (none / API key / OAuth 2.1) and credential risk. - Transport (stdio / Streamable HTTP / SSE) and where the server runs. - Required secrets and the blast radius if they leak. - Operational risk in an unattended agent loop. - Which one is "good enough" for a weekend prototype vs. production. End with one sentence: which should I pick for my scenario, which is: [my scenario]. References: - https://top-mcps.com/mcp/hostinger - top-mcps.com listing for Cloudflare
Install the Hostinger MCP server for my [client: Claude] at the default config path for that client. Use the exact install snippet published at https://top-mcps.com/mcp/hostinger (fetch https://top-mcps.com/mcp/hostinger.json for the canonical server.json if you can read URLs). Before finishing: 1. Create the required secrets (HOSTINGER_API_TOKEN) and put them in the appropriate env block — do not hard-code them. 2. Restart or reload the client so it picks up the new server. 3. Verify the server is connected (green / running state) and at least one tool is listed. 4. If anything fails, read the client's MCP logs and report the exact error — do not silently retry. Confirm when done and list the tools the server now exposes.
