## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability getapi-dns-records-lookup-573be130
```

Example prompt: Can you look up the MX records for getapi.nl so I can see which mail servers are configured for that domain?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a quick, programmatic DNS record lookup for a specific domain and record type, especially in agent workflows involving email validation, domain verification, infrastructure checks, or mail server discovery. Prefer it over manual dig/nslookup commands when automation or pay-per-use pricing ($0.01/call) is acceptable and you need structured JSON output with TTL and priority data.

## Known failure modes

- Domain does not exist or is not registered — returns found: false with empty records array
- Invalid or unsupported DNS record type specified — may return error or empty result
- Network timeout reaching authoritative DNS servers — transient failure
- Rate limiting or quota exceeded — HTTP 429 response
- Malformed domain input (e.g. missing TLD) — returns error or empty result
