ChatDNS 0.1.2

ChatDNS: ChatArch DNS record, DDNS, and provider helper extracted from ChatTool.

ChatDNS

ChatDNS is a ChatArch DNS helper extracted from ChatTool. It provides a standalone chatdns CLI and importable Python API for DNS record management, DDNS updates, provider clients, IP detection, DNS-01 certificate automation, and MCP registration.

Commands

chatdns --help
chatdns list
chatdns --env work list --provider tencent
chatdns records example.com
chatdns records test.example.com
chatdns set test.example.com -t A -v 1.2.3.4
chatdns delete test.example.com -t A -v 1.2.3.4 --yes
chatdns ip
chatdns cert apply -d example.com -d '*.example.com' -e [e-mail] --provider aliyun
chatdns cert check example.com

Supported providers in this release:

• Aliyun DNS
• Tencent Cloud DNSPod

Certificate management from the old chattool dns cert surface is now available as chatdns cert. It uses ACME DNS-01 validation and writes TXT records through the configured DNS provider. Treat live certificate issuance as an external side effect: test with --staging first and verify provider credentials before production use.

Configuration

ChatDNS reads provider credentials and defaults from environment / ChatEnv-compatible config fields:

• CHATDNS_PROVIDER (default DNS provider/channel: aliyun or tencent)
• ALIBABA_CLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_ID
• ALIBABA_CLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET
• ALIBABA_CLOUD_REGION_ID
• TENCENT_SECRET_ID
• TENCENT_SECRET_KEY
• TENCENT_REGION_ID

Active ChatEnv profiles are loaded automatically from $CHATARCH_HOME/envs (default: ~/.chatarch/envs). Use the global --env/-e option before the command to select a named provider profile, for example chatdns --env work list -p tencent.

Provider aliases are registered through the package's chatenv.configs entry point as chatdns.config.
