Example workflow. Execution requires a configured tool with provider permissions for this action; see the connection’s operation reference or bring your company tool to the demo.

Agent request

Change api.example.com from 203.0.113.10 to 203.0.113.24

An incorrect record can route API traffic to the wrong endpoint or make it unreachable.

CC8.1: Change management

Read-back

The record as the DNS provider now serves it: name, value, and TTL.

Receipt

The current and proposed record, the Network owner's reason, the record read back from the provider, and the CC8.1 test it supports.

Policy decision

Production DNS changes require the Network owner.

Approver

Network owner

Dex, holding up a stop after an action was denied

The existing DNS record stays in place and the write does not run.

Execution order

The agent request stops before the connected tool runs.

  1. 01Network agent requests the record change
  2. 02Deixic checks the zone, record, destination, and policy
  3. 03Network owner decides
  4. 04Connected DNS tool returns the change result
  5. 05Deixic reads the result back and attaches the receipt to the test

Activity history keeps the request, decision, cost, and result.

Keep the procedure for the next request.

Keep the policy and decision history, save the steps and evidence as a skill, and test changes on real sessions; an approval stays specific to its request.
