host intel
Host intelligence
host intel bundle: DNS + TLS + WHOIS in one settle.
When to use
host intel: DNS, leaf TLS, and WHOIS/RDAP for one hostname in a single settle. Use when you need live host facts together and must not guess. Child errors stay in-field; we do not invent data.
Try
Opens the live endpoint. Unpaid browser requests show the paywall; agents should send Accept: application/json.

Expect HTTP 402 and a PAYMENT-REQUIRED
header until you retry with PAYMENT-SIGNATURE.

Guarantees
- Settlement finishes before the tool executes. Uncertain settlement fails closed (HTTP 503).
- Lookups run on our nodes — no third-party data API wrappers.
- Localhost, IP literals, and metadata hostnames are rejected.
- Execution is timeout-bounded and concurrency-capped.
