Build with Register.gy

Let AI assistants and your own apps check .gy domains and connect them to websites. A REST API, an MCP server for Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, and OAuth sign-in. Free for every Register.gy customer.

Overview

Register.gy is an accredited .gy domain registrar. The developer platform exposes the same tools customers use in the Client Area, so an assistant or an app can:

  • Check availability of .gy, .com.gy, .co.gy, .net.gy and .org.gy names, with price and a registration link. No sign-in needed.
  • List a customer's domains and read their DNS records.
  • Connect a website: send the records a website builder shows (Lovable, Bolt, Replit, v0, Netlify, Shopify…), get a preview, then apply. Every change can be undone for 7 days.
  • Check that a site is live: DNS visibility and https.

By design the platform never changes email (MX) records or nameservers, transfers domains or touches payments. Registry-level changes are applied by the Register.gy team.

Quickstart

1. Check a name (no key)

curl "https://register.gy/wp-json/rgy/v1/availability?domain=mybakery.gy"

2. Create an API key

Log in to the Client Area, open API & AI assistants and click Create API key. It is shown once.

3. List your domains

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer rgy_live_YOUR_KEY" https://register.gy/wp-json/rgy/v1/domains

4. Preview, then connect a website

curl -X POST https://register.gy/wp-json/rgy/v1/domains/mybakery.gy/connect/preview \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer rgy_live_YOUR_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"records":[{"type":"A","name":"@","value":"185.158.133.1"},{"type":"TXT","name":"_lovable","value":"lovable_verify=…"}]}'

If the preview looks right, send the same body to /connect/apply. Undo with /connect/undo within 7 days.

Connect an AI assistant

Register.gy runs a remote MCP server (the standard way assistants use outside tools). Assistants that support sign-in will open a Register.gy window: the customer enters their email, types the 6-digit code we send, and approves what the assistant may do.

Claude

Add a custom connector with this address, then sign in:

https://register.gy/wp-json/rgy/v1/mcp

ChatGPT

Where ChatGPT lets you add a custom connector or app (developer mode), use the same address and choose OAuth sign-in:

https://register.gy/wp-json/rgy/v1/mcp

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http register-gy https://register.gy/wp-json/rgy/v1/mcp

Then run /mcp in Claude Code to sign in. Or skip sign-in with a key: add --header "Authorization: Bearer rgy_live_YOUR_KEY".

Cursor and other MCP clients

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "register-gy": {
      "url": "https://register.gy/wp-json/rgy/v1/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer rgy_live_YOUR_KEY" }
    }
  }
}

Clients that support OAuth can leave out headers and sign in instead.

Then ask, for example: "Is mybakery.gy available?" or "Connect my Lovable site to mybakery.gy." The assistant shows the planned changes and asks before applying them.

Public, search-only endpoint (no sign-in): https://register.gy/wp-json/rgy/v1/mcp/public

Authentication

OAuth 2.1 (recommended for assistants and apps used by other people)

  • Authorization code flow with PKCE (S256 only). Public and confidential clients.
  • Dynamic client registration (RFC 7591) at https://register.gy/oauth/register. Redirect URIs must be https, or http on localhost.
  • Discovery: /.well-known/oauth-authorization-server (RFC 8414) and /.well-known/oauth-protected-resource (RFC 9728). The MCP endpoint answers unauthenticated requests with 401 and a WWW-Authenticate header pointing to the resource metadata.
  • Access tokens last 1 hour; refresh tokens 30 days and rotate on every use. Reusing an old refresh token ends the whole connection.
  • Revocation: https://register.gy/oauth/revoke (RFC 7009). Customers can also disconnect apps in the Client Area.
ScopeAllows
domains:readSee your .gy domains and their DNS records
websites:writeConnect your websites (change website records only, with 7-day undo)

API keys (your own scripts and tools)

Create up to 5 keys in the Client Area. Send them as Authorization: Bearer rgy_live_… or X-API-Key: rgy_live_…. Keys have both scopes. They are stored hashed, and the owner is emailed when one is created.

MCP server

Streamable HTTP transport, JSON responses (no event stream), protocol versions 2025-06-18, 2025-03-26, 2024-11-05.

ToolWhat it doesChanges data?
search_domainCheck whether a .gy domain (.gy, .com.gy, .co.gy, .net.gy or .org.gy) is available at Register.gy, with the yearly price and a link to register it.No
list_my_domainsList the user's .gy domains at Register.gy, with expiry date and whether each can be connected to a website now.No
get_dns_recordsShow the current DNS records of one of the user's .gy domains.No
connect_websitePoint one of the user's .gy domains at their website by setting the DNS records their website builder (Lovable, Bolt, Replit, v0/Vercel, Netlify, Webflow, Shopify…) shows on its custom-domain screen. Use the builder's real values, never guesses. ALWAYS call with apply=false first and show the user the preview; call again with apply=true only after the user clearly confirms. Email (MX) and nameserver records are never changed. The change can be undone for 7 days.Yes, after confirmation
check_liveCheck whether the website records of a .gy domain are visible on the internet and whether https works yet.No
undo_last_changePut back the website records that were in place before the last connect_website change on this domain (available for 7 days). Ask the user first.Yes, after confirmation

REST API

Base URL https://register.gy/wp-json/rgy/v1. JSON in, JSON out. Errors look like {"error":{"code":"not_found","message":"…"}}.

Connect request body

Either a list of records, or the raw text your builder shows (a table or list). Only A, AAAA, CNAME (ALIAS) and TXT are set; anything else is listed under skipped with the reason.

{
  "records": [
    { "type": "A", "name": "@", "value": "185.158.133.1" },
    { "type": "CNAME", "name": "www", "value": "mysite.netlify.app" }
  ]
}

Limits and errors

StatusMeaning
400Bad request (the message says what to fix)
401Missing, invalid or expired key or token
403Not allowed (for example a read-only connection trying to change records, or a domain managed by our team)
404Not on this account, or unknown endpoint
429Too many requests; wait and retry
503A dependency (DNS or the availability check) is not responding; retry later

Security

  • Keys and tokens are stored only as SHA-256 hashes. Sign-in codes are single-use, expire in 10 minutes and are rate limited.
  • Each key or connection only sees the domains of the customer who created it.
  • Every change through the API is logged and can be undone for 7 days. Website records are set DNS-only so builders can issue their https certificates.
  • Found a security problem? Email contact@iis.gy with "Security" in the subject. Please give us a chance to fix it before telling others.

Changelog
