# dns-ds-via-adguard

> dns-ds-via-adguard is a paid API for AI agents from dns.intel.rallylive.ca, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-22).

Fetches DS (Delegation Signer) records for a domain using AdGuard DNS over HTTPS, returning records, TTL, DNSSEC validation status, response code, and resolver latency.

## Facts

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-ds-via-adguard-c3c52d49
```

Example prompt: Can you look up the DS records for example.com using AdGuard DNS and tell me whether DNSSEC is being validated, what the TTL is, and how fast the resolver responded?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you specifically need DS records as seen by AdGuard DNS, particularly for comparing DNSSEC delegation across resolvers, diagnosing propagation lag, or detecting filtering/split-horizon behavior unique to AdGuard. Use it alongside other resolver-specific DS endpoints (e.g. Cloudflare, OpenDNS) to cross-reference answers.

## Known failure modes

- Domain does not exist — returns NXDOMAIN response code with no DS records
- Resolver failure — returns SERVFAIL if AdGuard DNS cannot reach authoritative servers
- Domain has no DS records — returns NOERROR with empty answer section
- Network timeout — resolver answer time may be unavailable or elevated
- Invalid domain format — query may fail or return an error response

## How this service works

DS records for a domain as answered by AdGuard DNS (DNS over HTTPS): the records, TTL, response code (NOERROR/NXDOMAIN/SERVFAIL), whether the resolver validated DNSSEC, and the resolver's answer time. Compare resolvers to spot propagation lag, filtering or split-horizon answers. $0.01 per lookup.

## Output

Returns the DS records for the queried domain as answered by AdGuard DNS, including the record data, TTL, DNS response code (NOERROR, NXDOMAIN, or SERVFAIL), whether the resolver performed DNSSEC validation, and the resolver's answer latency in milliseconds.
