Connect Geekflare to your agent to pull live domain data. Once connected, your AI can scan records to find exactly where a configuration is broken.

Ask AI about this page

Short answer

Can my AI fix my DNS records?

No, your AI cannot change records, but it can read them. It uses Geekflare to pull DNS, MX, and Whois data so you can see exactly what's wrong with your setup. You'll get a clear breakdown of the current state of your domain.

Troubleshooting outcomes

Where your findings land.

The AI handles the data gathering so you can focus on the fix.

DIAGNOSIS

Identify broken records

The AI pulls current DNS and MX entries to find mismatches. You'll see if your mail servers or A records are pointing to the wrong places.

OWNERSHIP

Verify domain registration

By pulling Whois data, the AI confirms who owns the domain and when it expires. This helps catch issues with expired registrations.

ANALYSIS

Spot configuration errors

Your agent compares the live data against what you expect to see. It highlights missing TXT records or incorrect TTL settings.

HUMAN

Manual record updates

The AI provides the findings, but you must log into your registrar to actually change any settings. It tells you what to fix, not how to click.

The workflow

What your AI does when a domain issue arrives.

Instead of you running manual terminal commands, your agent does the heavy lifting.

  1. Fetch live records

    The agent reaches out to pull the current DNS and MX entries for the domain you specify.

    get_dns_records

  2. Check registration status

    It pulls the Whois information to check the registrar and expiration dates.

    get_whois_data

  3. Compare and contrast

    The AI looks for discrepancies between the live records and your intended configuration.

    get_dns_records

  4. Summarize the error

    The agent translates the raw technical data into a plain English explanation of the problem.
