Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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-tw-4ea247bd
```

Example prompt: Can you look up the official registry details for the .tw top-level domain — I need to know who operates it, what the WHOIS server is, whether DNSSEC is enabled, and what nameservers it uses?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need authoritative, structured metadata specifically about the .tw TLD itself (not individual .tw domain registrations). It is ideal for registrar integrations, compliance checks, TLD policy research, and DNSSEC audits targeting the Taiwan country-code TLD. For individual domain WHOIS lookups or A/MX/TXT record queries, use domain-specific DNS endpoints instead.

## Known failure modes

- IANA/RDAP source unreachable — returns error indicating upstream lookup failure
- Malformed or unexpected response from registry — may return partial data
- Network timeout from DNS intelligence backend — returns 5xx or timeout error

## How this service works

About the .tw 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 .tw. $0.01 per call.

## Output

Returns structured metadata about the .tw TLD including: registry operator name, TLD classification (country-code), IANA registration details, RDAP base URL, WHOIS server hostname, TLD creation date, DNSSEC signing status, and the official registry nameservers.
