## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability is-dns-hosted-by-squarespace-6e320ded
```

Example prompt: Can you check if example.com has its DNS hosted by Squarespace? I need to know if they're a Squarespace customer before we reach out.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you specifically need to detect Squarespace DNS hosting (not just general Squarespace website usage) using authoritative NS record lookups via Cloudflare DoH. Prefer this over generic DNS lookup tools when you want structured yes/no vendor detection with matched nameserver details for sales, migration planning, or security research workflows.

## Known failure modes

- Domain not found or does not exist — no NS records returned
- Cloudflare DoH lookup fails due to upstream DNS issues
- Domain uses non-standard or uncommon nameservers that don't match any Squarespace pattern — returns 'no' even if Squarespace is involved
- Missing or malformed domain input parameter
- Rate limiting or payment failure on repeated calls

## How this service works

Is the domain's DNS hosted by squarespace? Looks up the NS records (Cloudflare DoH) and matches them against squarespace's nameserver patterns, returning yes/no, the nameservers and which ones matched. Vendor detection for sales, migration and security work. $0.01 per lookup.

## Output

Returns a yes/no answer indicating whether the domain's DNS is hosted by Squarespace, along with the full list of NS records retrieved and which specific nameservers matched Squarespace's known patterns.
