Check one exact domain

Checks whether one specific domain can be registered, rather than searching the names the registrar suggests. Use this to buy a domain the customer chose. Only .com and .org are supported.

A domain that simply cannot be bought - taken, malformed, an extension we do not register - answers 200 with available false and a reason. A non-2xx means the check itself could not be made, which is not the same as the domain being taken.

Availability of that exact domain

Reason says why the domain cannot be bought, in words that can be shown to a person. Empty when available is true.

Unconfirmed is true when we could not get an answer at all rather than the answer "no". Do not report these as taken; offer a retry.
