## 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 syntexa-agentshelf-dns-srv-imaps-lookup-aca72828 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you look up the IMAP over TLS SRV DNS record for gmail.com so I know what server and port to use for secure IMAP connections?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when an agent needs to programmatically discover the IMAP-over-TLS server configuration for a domain via standard DNS SRV records (RFC 6186), particularly when automating email client setup, onboarding flows, or mail server validation. Prefer the unpaid sandbox endpoint (POST /v1/sandbox/dns-srv-imaps) for testing; use this paid endpoint for production lookups.

## Known failure modes

- Domain has no _imaps._tcp SRV record — returns empty or NXDOMAIN response
- Invalid or malformed hostname input — validation error
- DNS resolution timeout or upstream failure
- Hostname exceeds 253 character limit

## How this service works

Call when an agent needs SRV records at _imaps._tcp.{hostname} for IMAP over TLS. The caller sends the registrable domain, not the underscored name. Exact $0.007 USDC. Prefer unpaid POST /v1/sandbox/dns-srv-imaps first.

## Output

Returns the DNS SRV record(s) found at _imaps._tcp.{hostname}, typically including priority, weight, port, and target hostname for the IMAP-over-TLS mail server.
