domain-dns-ops

What This Skill Does

The domain-dns-ops skill acts as an expert-level router for managing Peter’s domain and DNS infrastructure across Cloudflare, DNSimple, and Namecheap. It leverages ~/Projects/manager as the singular source of truth for all domain configurations, registrar hints, and operational checklists. The skill streamlines the complex process of onboarding new zones to Cloudflare, updating nameservers, configuring HTTPS redirects via Page Rules or Workers, and performing post-deployment verification. By automating interactions with cli4 and local repository scripts, the agent ensures that DNS changes are performed consistently and documented correctly within the existing management repository.

Installation

To integrate this skill into your OpenClaw environment, execute the following command in your terminal: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/bobdevibecoder/bobagent-domain-dns-ops Ensure you have cloned the ~/Projects/manager repository and configured your local environment variables (specifically CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN) as outlined in the documentation.

Use Cases

1. Vanity Domain Onboarding: Automatically setting up a new domain by creating the Cloudflare zone, updating registrar nameservers, and applying standardized DNS placeholders.
2. Redirect Management: Implementing bulk redirects or specific Worker-based traffic rules. The skill manages the mapping file (redirect-worker-mapping.md) to ensure consistency between the redirect logic and actual deployment routes.
3. Policy Enforcement: Quickly auditing and updating security settings across all zones, such as the bulk disabling of "Block AI bots" across multiple Cloudflare accounts.
4. Verification & Debugging: Performing end-to-end checks using dig for nameserver resolution and curl to confirm 301/302 redirect status codes.

Example Prompts

1. "Onboard new-project.com to Cloudflare. Check the DOMAINS.md file for the registrar and follow the golden path for setup."
2. "Update the redirect mapping to send old-domain.com to the new staging site and deploy the changes via the redirect-worker."
3. "Disable the 'Block AI bots' setting for all domains in our current Cloudflare account and provide a summary of the changes."

Tips & Limitations

• Safety First: The skill follows a strict 'verify after each change' methodology. If a DNS propagation delay is suspected, the agent will pause for verification.
• Source of Truth: Never edit the live configurations without updating ~/Projects/manager. The skill expects you to commit your changes using Conventional Commits.
• Scope Guardrails: The agent is restricted from modifying protected domains (e.g., steipete.md) without explicit confirmation. Always check the DOMAINS.md exclusions list before initiating operations.
• Prerequisites: Ensure the environment profile is sourced (source ~/.profile) to load necessary API tokens before triggering any ops commands.
