dns_host_search

Pack: hackertarget · Connect: https://pipeworx.io/mcp (see Connect below for a single-pack URL)

No MCP client? Call it directly: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/dns_host_search for the schema, then POST the same URL with its arguments for the data.

“Subdomains of [domain]” / “what hosts exist under [X]” / “find an admin or staging subdomain” — passive DNS host search via HackerTarget, listing known subdomains of a domain with their IPs, drawn from previously observed DNS data rather than by guessing names. Use for attack-surface inventory or to find a forgotten staging host.
