Closes #7300

Summary

Adds three tools over the hosted DNS Doctor API to lib/crewai-tools, giving agents deterministic DNS and email-authentication checks for a domain:

  • DnsDoctorScanTool: the full report (SPF, DKIM, DMARC, MX, DNS health, blacklists, domain and TLS expiry) with per-check verdicts and copy-paste fix records from a validating engine, never a model-generated record.
  • DnsDoctorDmarcUpgradeTool: the next safe DMARC record for a domain, alignment-gated, with the rationale.
  • DnsDoctorPropagationTool: whether a DNS change has propagated, read from six locations on four continents.

No API key is needed (an optional DNSDOCTOR_API_TOKEN raises the rate limit). Uses the existing requests dependency, no new extras. Responses are relayed verbatim as JSON text; transport failures (rate limit, 5xx, network) are returned as text that says they are not a verdict about the domain. A 402 relays the x402 payment offer so an x402-capable caller can pay and retry.

Checklist

  • Tool folder with README.md; class names end in Tool; pydantic args_schema with field descriptions (record_type is an enum matching the API); env_vars declared.
  • Exported from crewai_tools/tools/__init__.py and crewai_tools/__init__.py (imports and __all__); tool.specs.json carries the three generated entries.
  • tests/tools/dns_doctor_tool_test.py mocks the network (uv run --package crewai-tools pytest lib/crewai-tools/tests/tools/dns_doctor_tool_test.py: 6 passed); pre-commit (ruff, ruff-format, mypy) clean on the changed files.

Authored with an AI coding assistant working from the contributing guide; please apply the llm-generated label if the author cannot.

Three tools over the hosted DNS Doctor API (dnsdoctor.dev): the full SPF/DKIM/DMARC/MX/DNS/blacklist/expiry report with copy-paste fix records from a validating engine, the next safe DMARC record, and a six-location propagation check. No API key needed; responses relayed verbatim; transport failures returned as text that says they are not a verdict. Uses the existing requests dependency; unit tests mock the network.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Adds three DNS Doctor API tools for domain scanning, DMARC upgrades, and DNS propagation checks. The tools share request handling, expose package exports and tool specifications, include documentation, and add mocked tests for requests and failure responses.

Changes

DNS Doctor tool integration

Layer / File(s) Summary
API client and tool implementations
lib/crewai-tools/src/crewai_tools/tools/dns_doctor_tool/dns_doctor_tool.py
Adds shared API request handling, optional bearer authentication, User-Agent generation, failure messages, and the scan, DMARC upgrade, and propagation tools.
Package registration and tool metadata
lib/crewai-tools/src/crewai_tools/__init__.py, lib/crewai-tools/src/crewai_tools/tools/__init__.py, lib/crewai-tools/src/crewai_tools/tools/dns_doctor_tool/README.md, lib/crewai-tools/tool.specs.json
Exports the tools, documents their arguments and behavior, and adds their tool specifications. Existing specification text also receives Unicode encoding normalization.
Request and failure-path tests
lib/crewai-tools/tests/tools/dns_doctor_tool_test.py
Tests endpoint payloads, response relaying, transport failures, x402 payment responses, API refusals, and conditional authorization headers.

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 9022e

This adds DNS Doctor scan, DMARC recommendation, and propagation tools with documented exports and mocked request/failure coverage. No concrete merge-blocking risk remains.

Check name Status Explanation Resolution
Out of Scope Changes check ⚠️ Warning The DNS Doctor implementation is in scope, but tool.specs.json also normalizes Unicode escape sequences in unrelated filesystem and NL2SQL descriptions. These edits are not required for issue #7300. Remove the unrelated encoding-only changes from tool.specs.json, or provide a clear justification for including them in this pull request.
Docstring Coverage ⚠️ Warning Docstring coverage is 15.38% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff. Analyzed 13 functions across 4 files. Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.

Inline comments:
In `@lib/crewai-tools/src/crewai_tools/tools/dns_doctor_tool/dns_doctor_tool.py`:
- Around line 174-175: Update the expected_value handling in the DNS doctor
request construction to include the field whenever expected_value is not None,
preserving an explicitly provided empty string while still omitting the field
when no value was supplied.
- Line 82: Update the DNS doctor tool’s response handling to validate the
payload with response.json() but return the original response.text unchanged
instead of serializing it with json.dumps(). Preserve the existing validation
flow and verbatim JSON relay behavior.

In `@lib/crewai-tools/tests/tools/dns_doctor_tool_test.py`:
- Line 30: Update the DNS doctor tool tests around the shared _call behavior to
use a deliberately distinct response.text value and assert the returned out
string equals response.text directly, rather than only comparing json.loads(out)
with REPORT. Apply the same raw-text assertion to the additional test location
so the tests verify verbatim response relay.
- Line 32: Update the endpoint tests around _call and the assertions at lines
32, 44, and 50 to explicitly set DNSDOCTOR_API_BASE to https://dnsdoctor.dev or
remove it with monkeypatch before each test, ensuring runtime environment
overrides cannot affect the expected default URLs.

Review follow-ups: validate with response.json() but return response.text
unchanged; send expected_value whenever it is not None; tests assert the raw
text relay and pin the default API origin regardless of the environment.
