Perplexity

Scripted DNS Failovers

Stop logging into web portals during an outage. When your primary server drops, Claude Code detects the failure and instantly fires `update_dns_record` via the Gandi.net MCP Server to reroute traffic to your backup IP. It verifies the change by running `list_dns_records` and diffing the output against your expected state. You can wrap this entire sequence in a bash script and let your terminal agent handle the incident response while you debug the root cause.

Claude Code Infrastructure Sync

Drift happens when developers manually tweak DNS settings. You can schedule Claude Code to run `list_domains` and `get_domain` every night to pull the exact state of your Gandi account. The agent compares the live records against your Terraform or Pulumi files. If someone added a rogue TXT record, Claude Code flags it and can even execute `delete_dns_record` to enforce your baseline configuration automatically.

Terminal-Based Mailbox Control

Provisioning email for a 50-person acquisition is a massive headache. Instead of clicking through the Gandi UI, you pipe a CSV of names into Claude Code and let it loop through `create_mailbox`. It follows up with `list_mailboxes` to ensure every account was actually created. You get a clean terminal output with the results, and the whole job takes three minutes instead of three hours.
