## 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 pitcrew-domain-lookup-aa9ffc64
```

Example prompt: Can you look up the registration details for github.com — I want to know how old it is, who registered it, and whether it has SPF and DMARC set up correctly?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a quick, cheap ($0.005) programmatic lookup of domain registration metadata and email security configuration (SPF/DMARC) without building WHOIS or DNS tooling yourself. Especially useful for fraud detection, vendor vetting, phishing investigation, or email deliverability checks. Prefer over manual WHOIS lookups when operating inside an automated agent pipeline that supports x402 micropayments.

## Known failure modes

- Domain not found in registry — returns empty or null fields
- Invalid domain format provided — may return validation error
- Network timeout reaching upstream WHOIS or DNS services
- Payment failure via x402 — call not executed
- Rate limiting if called too frequently

## How this service works

Look up a domain before trusting it: registrar, creation date and age in days, expiry, status flags and nameservers from RDAP, plus A/AAAA/MX/CAA records and email authentication (SPF, DMARC policy). Flags young domains (under 30 days), near expiry, missing SPF/DMARC and p=none. Useful for phishing and vendor checks, outreach hygiene and incident triage.

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing the domain name, creation date, age in days, registrar name, SPF record value, DMARC policy, and a list of detected problems (empty array if none).
