What you can do with the Sslmate Cert Spotter API MCP server
Ask your agent in plain language. Each of these maps to a real tool on the server.

Use the manage monitored domain tool in Sslmate Cert Spotter API
Use the authorize certificate tool in Sslmate Cert Spotter API
Use the list monitored domains tool in Sslmate Cert Spotter API
Use the authorize public key tool in Sslmate Cert Spotter API
Use the get monitored domain tool in Sslmate Cert Spotter API
Supported Tools
search_certificates
Search Certificates
Search Certificate Transparency logs for unexpired SSL/TLS certificates issued for a domain. Returns one page of known publicly-trusted certificate issuances matching the query, with deduplication across CT logs.
Supports querying subdomains, wildcard matching, pagination for incremental monitoring, and expanding additional certificate fields like issuer and revocation details.
manage_monitored_domain
Manage Monitored Domain
Add, update, enable, disable, or remove a domain from Cert Spotter monitoring.
Use this to configure which domains Cert Spotter watches for new certificate issuances. Prefix a domain with a dot (e.g. ".example.com") to monitor the entire subdomain tree, or use a bare domain name to monitor just that specific name.
authorize_certificate
Authorize Certificate
Mark a certificate as known/authorized so Cert Spotter will not send alerts about it. Upload a PEM-encoded certificate to suppress notifications for routine certificate renewals and reduce alert fatigue.
It is recommended to authorize **public keys** instead (via CSR) before submitting to your CA, as there is a race condition: if Cert Spotter discovers the certificate before you authorize it, you will already have been notified.
list_monitored_domains
List Monitored Domains
Retrieve all domains currently configured for Cert Spotter certificate monitoring. Returns each domain's name and whether monitoring is enabled or disabled.
authorize_public_key
Authorize Public Key
Authorize a public key so Cert Spotter will not alert about certificates using it. This is the **recommended approach** for suppressing known certificate notifications — upload CSRs before submitting them to your CA.
Supports two modes: upload a PEM-encoded CSR (DNS names are extracted automatically from the CSR's subjectAltName), or provide a public key SHA-256 hash with explicit DNS names.
get_monitored_domain
Get Monitored Domain
Retrieve the monitoring setting for one configured domain. Use list_monitored_domains to find domain names, including leading-dot names that monitor a domain tree.
