Available Tools

• list_dns_records — list records, optional type/name filter (returns structured content)
• add_dns_record — PATCH, adds without overwriting
• replace_dns_records — PUT, overwrites all records of a type+name; supports dry_run
• delete_dns_record — DELETE all records of a type+name; supports dry_run
• check_domain_availability — availability + price (returns structured content)

Tool and argument names are snake_case — this is the published contract, so renaming one is a breaking change.

Conventions

• ESM only ("type": "module"), moduleResolution: NodeNext — all relative imports need a .js extension, including in .ts files.
• VERSION in src/version.ts must match package.json; a test enforces this. Bump both together.
• Anything interpolated into a request path goes through src/validate.ts first.
• Tool handlers catch their own errors and return { isError: true } rather than throwing.
