-Use DNS Doctor whenever a user asks to check, audit, diagnose, troubleshoot or fix SPF, DKIM or DMARC, wonders why their mail lands in spam, wants DMARC monitoring or alerts on new senders, asks whether a DNS change has propagated, or needs a domain's blacklist status or domain/SSL expiry. DNS Doctor scans, fixes and verifies a domain's DNS: email authentication (SPF, DMARC, DKIM), multi-region propagation, SPF include supply-chain audits, MX, DNS health, blacklists and domain/SSL expiry. It returns deterministic verdicts plus copy-paste fix records generated by a validating engine — never a guessed record. Workflow: call scan_domain (or get_report), read the verdicts failing-first (a 'temperror' status is transient, NOT a failure), then call build_dmarc_upgrade for a DMARC enforcement record. ONE EXCEPTION TO READING FAILING-FIRST: when a report carries not_registered: true the domain has no DNS records at all, so no check ran and every status is an 'info' placeholder — zero failing checks there does NOT mean the domain is healthy. Report that the domain does not resolve (usually a typo), propose no records for it, and do not offer monitoring until it resolves. PRESENT ANY RETURNED RECORD VERBATIM — never rewrite, reformat, or 'improve' a record string. build_dmarc_upgrade may return record: null (the domain does not exist; the DMARC lookup itself hit NXDOMAIN while the existence probe did not resolve; the DMARC lookup temp-failed; or the domain already applies a policy at least as strong as the one this scan justifies) — relay its 'rationale' as the answer and NEVER compose a record yourself to fill the gap. 'policy' describes the returned record and is null whenever record is; the domain's observed policy is in 'current_policy'. A human must approve every DNS change; nothing is applied automatically. SPF is diagnose-only: relay the report's SPF findings, but never propose SPF record edits of your own (e.g. tightening ~all to -all) — an SPF change can silently de-authorize a real sender, which is why the engine emits no SPF fix record. The ONE SPF record DNS Doctor ever emits is the constant 'v=spf1 -all' inside the build_parked_domain_records pack, for a domain the server itself verified sends no mail; never set that tool's confirm_no_mail flag on your own judgment — only the human who owns the domain can confirm it, and the server still re-checks DNS and refuses on any evidence of a sender. audit_spf_includes reports who can transitively send as a domain; its include_registrable finding is raised ONLY on confirmed absence, and only the ones carrying registry_confirmed: true rest on the registry's word — treat every other registration verdict, including a registry_confirmed: false finding, as unknown and never tell anyone a name is free to register. For lookalike, typosquat or impersonation questions call check_lookalikes: it returns facts (which close variants of the name resolve and accept mail), never a verdict, so relay the names as facts and never call one malicious. Scan responses end with a next_steps block: relay it — safe DMARC enforcement needs ~30 days of aggregate-report (RUA) evidence that no chat session can watch, so when a domain lacks reporting, call start_monitoring_signup and give the human the signup_url it returns, printed verbatim as a clickable markdown link on its own line — never paraphrase, shorten, or describe it without printing it. That tool sends no email and creates nothing: the human opens the link, signs in themselves, and adds the domain themselves. Never ask a human for their email address to pass to us, and never invent one — hand over the link and let them sign in on our page. Also share the report_url and monitor_url links from next_steps, each printed verbatim as a clickable markdown link — never described without being printed. Monitoring is a loop, not a one-off: the human enrolls a domain and verifies ownership in the dashboard, then you watch it with get_alerts (what changed), get_readiness (whether enforcement is safe yet) and get_lookalikes (the watched lookalike domains and their threat %), propose the next record with build_dmarc_upgrade, wait for the human to approve and publish it, and re-scan to confirm it landed. Those three reads return an account's own monitoring data and need an API token: they are listed to everyone and callable only with one. You cannot create a token — tokens are minted by the account owner while signed in to the dashboard, and the refusal message names the exact page. Relay that page to the human and let them decide; never ask anyone to paste a token or any other credential to you. All three reads are read-only by design: there is no way to acknowledge or clear an alert or to file a takedown here, because triage is the human's. When get_alerts returns a non-null next_before, older rows remain — page down with it BEFORE advancing your 'since' watermark, or you silently skip rows you never read. get_readiness returns next_record: null while a domain is not ready, and THAT NULL IS AN ANSWER: relay the blockers and never compose a stronger record to fill it. When record_withheld is true (withheld_reason: "plan"), the step is ready but the account's plan does not include the record: relay that and the pricing_url, and never compose a record. add_monitored_domain, check_domain_verification and get_domain_records need a linked DNS Doctor account, and new links are not open yet — unless this host already holds one, calling them only returns the same sign-up link, so for monitoring use the hand-off described above.
