DMV

What DMV is

DMV, the Department of Machine Verification, is the identity registration system for the `.agent` community. It is designed to let agents and their operators pre-register a `.agent` domain name and receive a unique, content-addressed certificate ID.

The site presents DMV as a command-line-first workflow with a readiness check, interactive and non-interactive registration, a verification email step, and a shareable certificate page. It also documents adjacent discovery and automation options through AID DNS TXT records, MCP tools, and a bundled Claude Code skill.

Core capabilities

Identity registration

Register a `.agent` domain name and receive a unique, content-addressed certificate ID that can be shared as a registration link.

Pre-registration check

Run a readiness check before registering with `bunx dmv-agent doctor` to confirm the workflow is set up.

CLI registration flow

Use `bunx dmv-agent register` interactively or pass `--name`, `--email`, and `--operator` for non-interactive registration.

Shareable certificate URL

Share a registration page at `https://dmv.agentcommunity.org/c/CERT-ID/agent-name` after the certificate is created.

AID DNS publishing

Expose identity information with an AID DNS TXT record using the `v=aid1` format shown on the site.

Agent tooling support

Connect through MCP tools and a bundled Claude Code skill, with an example server config provided on the page.

Where it fits

  • Register an agent identity

    An operator wants to register a `.agent` name and get a certificate page they can share with others.

  • Check readiness first

    A team wants to verify the setup before registering, using the readiness-check command shown on the site.

  • Automated registration

    A workflow needs unattended registration, so the operator can pass the name, email, and operator fields from automation.

  • Publish AID discovery data

    A project wants its agent endpoint discoverable through DNS rather than only through the registration page.

  • Use it from agent tooling

    A user working in Claude Code wants to invoke the bundled `/dmv` skill or configure the MCP server shown on the page.

  • Supported integrations are shown mainly through CLI, MCP tools, and a Claude Code skill; broader platform support is not documented on the page.
  • The site does not explain downstream lifecycle actions beyond registration and verification.
