# DNS CNAME Change Watch via DNSPod

> DNS CNAME Change Watch via DNSPod is a paid API for AI agents from dns.intel.rallylive.ca, paid per call via x402, $0.02/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-21).

Monitors DNS CNAME records for a domain via DNSPod and returns whether they have changed since the last check, with before/after diffs.

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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 dns-cname-change-watch-via-dnspod-857751a8
```

Example prompt: Keep an eye on the CNAME records for example.com via DNSPod and let me know if anything has changed since the last time you checked.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to detect changes to DNS CNAME records specifically as resolved by DNSPod (doh.pub), and you want stateful change detection with before/after diffs rather than a raw one-shot lookup. Ideal for scheduled monitoring workflows where you want to be alerted when CNAME configuration drifts. Prefer over generic DNS lookup endpoints when change detection and diff history are required.

## Known failure modes

- Domain not found or no CNAME records exist — returns empty record set
- First-time call has no prior state to compare — 'changed' will be false or indeterminate
- DNSPod upstream unavailable — may return an error or timeout
- Domain not supplied in query params — request rejected
- Stored state expired after 90 days — comparison baseline lost

## How this service works

Change watch for dns cname via dnspod: runs the check, compares it with the result from your previous call for the same domain (kept 90 days) and returns the current answer, changed true/false, the fields that changed with before/after values, and when it was last seen. Schedule it to be alerted when this changes. $0.02 per check.

## Output

Returns the current CNAME records for the domain as answered by DNSPod, a boolean 'changed' flag indicating whether the records differ from the previous call (stored up to 90 days), a list of fields that changed with their before and after values, and a timestamp of when the records were last seen.
