Use cases
Use cases
Illustrative examples of everyday work. They describe how the features combine, not any real customer, and every name in them uses example.com.
Add a record for a new service
A contributor creates an A record under the organization’s domain. It starts private, and the linter checks it on the next list.
Typical lookups
- POST /create
- api.example.com, A, TTL 300
- mode 0o770
Publish a status host
The record owner chmods one record to set the other-view bit. It appears in the public directory, read-only, and a webhook hears dns.record.published.
Typical lookups
- POST /chmod/{id}
- mode 0o774
- dns.record.published
Catch a mistake before it ships
A list with lint=1 flags a CNAME at the apex and a published record whose content is a private IP.
Typical lookups
- GET /list?lint=1
- cname_at_apex
- public_private_ip
Keep a downstream system in sync
A receiver subscribes to record events, verifies each signature and deduplicates by delivery id.
Typical lookups
- dns.record.updated
- X-DNS-Signature
- X-DNS-Delivery
