## 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 dkim-selector-smtpapi-lookup-a02266db
```

Example prompt: Can you check whether the DKIM smtpapi selector is properly configured and not revoked for the domain example.com?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you specifically need to validate the 'smtpapi' DKIM selector, which is the selector used by SendGrid/Twilio SendGrid for transactional email signing. Prefer this over generic DNS TXT lookups when you want structured parsing of DKIM fields (v=, k=, key length, testing flag, revocation) rather than raw record text. Choose this when auditing SendGrid-based email infrastructure or troubleshooting DKIM failures for domains using the smtpapi selector.

## Known failure modes

- Domain does not have a smtpapi._domainkey TXT record — returns not-found or empty result
- DNS lookup failure via Cloudflare DoH — network or resolver error
- Malformed TXT record that cannot be parsed — partial result or parse error
- Payment failure for $0.01 USDC — request blocked before lookup
- Key is revoked (empty p=) — returns revoked status rather than key details

## How this service works

DKIM public key for selector "smtpapi" of a domain: looks up smtpapi._domainkey.<domain> (TXT, Cloudflare DoH) and parses v=, k=, key type, public-key length, testing flag and whether the key is revoked (empty p=). Confirms that mail signed with the smtpapi selector will verify. $0.01 per lookup.

## Output

Returns parsed details from the smtpapi._domainkey.<domain> TXT record including: DKIM version (v=), key type (k=), RSA/EC public key and its bit length, whether the testing flag (t=y) is set, and whether the key is revoked (empty p= field), plus a confirmation of whether mail signed with this selector will verify.
