## 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 tld-info-ke-0f37a05f
```

Example prompt: Can you pull up the TLD info for .ke — I need to know the registry operator, whether DNSSEC is signed, the WHOIS server, and the nameservers they use?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you specifically need authoritative TLD-level metadata for .ke (Kenya's ccTLD) — registry operator, DNSSEC status, WHOIS and RDAP endpoints, and nameservers — rather than domain-level WHOIS or DNS record lookups. Prefer this over generic WHOIS tools when you need structured, machine-readable TLD policy data for .ke without parsing raw WHOIS text.

## Known failure modes

- IANA data unavailable: upstream IANA registry is unreachable, resulting in an empty or error response
- Stale data: registry details may not reflect very recent policy changes at KeNIC
- No input validation error if wrong TLD path is called — endpoint is fixed to .ke
- Rate limiting or payment failure: x402 payment not processed, resulting in 402 response

## How this service works

About the .ke top-level domain: registry operator, type (generic, country-code, sponsored), IANA/RDAP details, WHOIS server, creation date, DNSSEC signing status and the registry's nameservers. Registration research and TLD-policy checks for .ke. $0.01 per call.

## Output

Returns structured metadata about the .ke TLD including: registry operator name, TLD type (country-code/generic/sponsored), IANA ID, RDAP base URL, WHOIS server hostname, creation date, DNSSEC signing status (signed/unsigned), and the list of authoritative nameservers for the .ke zone.
