# DNS WHOIS and RDAP Lookup

`POST /v1/dns-whois-rdap`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://agent.pocket.network`
- URL: `https://agent.pocket.network/v1/dns-whois-rdap`
- Auth: none required

Domain intelligence: DNS records (A, AAAA, MX, TXT, NS, CNAME, SOA) plus RDAP registration data. POST /v1/dns with a {domain} and get the records and registration as one JSON object. Deterministic per lookup instant. Pay per request in USDC; no account, no API key.

## Request body

- object: A domain to look up. On the MCP relay route POST /v1/tool these fields are wrapped under an `arguments` object; the direct route takes them at the top level.
  - `domain` string, required: Domain name, e.g. example.com.

## Response `200`

The upstream response, served after payment settles.

- object: For POST /v1/dns, a JSON object with `dns` records and RDAP registration data. The exact shape is the service's own and is not pinned here; errors return a JSON object with an `error` field, and the GET routes return their own small JSON documents.

## Other responses

- `400`: Malformed request.
- `402`: Payment required. The x402 v2 terms are in the PAYMENT-REQUIRED header and, identically, in this body; sign the chosen option and retry with the PAYMENT-SIGNATURE header. The receipt arrives in PAYMENT-RESPONSE.
- `503`: This service is not currently available to serve.
