> cloudPulsePoint DNS Record Resolver is a paid API for AI agents from x402.cloudpulsepoint.com, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-14).

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability cloudpulsepoint-dns-record-resolver-2b0f46cf -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you check if example.com resolves correctly by looking up its A record? I want to confirm the DNS is configured properly and see what IP it points to.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to confirm that a specific domain resolves and see its DNS record values, particularly when diagnosing misconfigurations or verifying propagation of recent DNS changes. Prefer it over a full health-check endpoint when you only need DNS resolution data, not SSL, HTTP status, or page load metrics. Use it when you need a specific non-default record type such as MX, TXT, CNAME, or NS.

## Known failure modes

- Private, loopback, link-local, or cloud-metadata target URLs are rejected with HTTP 400 before payment
- Domain does not exist or has no records of the requested type — returns empty or NXDOMAIN result
- Malformed URL input returns a 400 validation error
- DNS resolution timeout if the authoritative nameserver is unresponsive
- Unsupported record type outside the allowed enum rejected at validation

## How this service works

Resolve a DNS record (A by default) for the host and return the values. Use to confirm a domain resolves and to detect missing or misconfigured records.

## Output

Returns the resolved DNS record values for the specified record type (e.g. IP addresses for A records, hostname for CNAME, mail server list for MX, text strings for TXT, nameserver list for NS). Indicates whether the domain resolves successfully and surfaces any missing or misconfigured records.
